It may or may not have flown an unofficial sortie today in order to confirm that all systems are ready for inspection. Had it flown such a sortie, it would have been a beautiful day to have done so, and it would possibly have warmed the hearts of several old-timers who watched it pass low overhead. The engine would have sounded smooth and strong and the pilot would probably have made a decent landing since there was only a very light breeze. A pair of Boeing Kaydets in US Army Air Corps trainer colors like Scout would have been up there too, since they had just been flying in formation over the VA Cemetery near Eagle Point. It may or may not have happened, but I do know that the airplane is ready for inspection. -------- Oscar Zuniga Medford, OR Air Camper NX41CC "Scout" A75 power Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=423819#423819 ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 02:42:00 PM PST US From: Ray Krause Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: unofficial sortie And you may have pictures?

I'll have to keep searching for that little clause. I have not carried passengers in my Air Camper in Oregon, yet. I have one candidate who is willing to be the first to do so, but it all depends on the outcome of the inspection. I sure hope the new A&P goes easy on me on the upcoming inspection. Supposedly, Steve Pankonin is an experienced hand when it comes to these older experimentals, and he talked like he knew Air Campers from years gone by. He sure knows Continental engines, but we'll see how perplexed he looks when he sees a stick-and-fabric airplane with no electrics parked on the apron on Wednesday. -------- Oscar Zuniga Medford, OR Air Camper NX41CC "Scout" A75 power Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=423833#423833 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message pietenpol-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/Pietenpol-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/pietenpol-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/pietenpol-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
