    From: "Baldeagle" <baldeagle27@earthlink.net>
    I will make the same comment that I think I've made the last couple of years-- it's time to utilise the standard Brodhead flyby pattern that's used at the Grass Roots Antique fly-in there in September. I saw airplanes crossing the airfield upwind, downwind, and crosswind. There were a few doing slow flight low enough that if their engine quit they would have no choice but to hit the ground amongst the airplanes and people. All flying from about the gas pumps to the runway should be parallel to landing traffic and downwind legs on the south side of the airport should be over the hangars or even south of the hangars. It only has to happen once for somebody to pile into the parking area of two airplanes to collide over the field to ruin everything. The person flying the light blue Taylorcraft showed very poor judgement, flying low and slow on downwind for landing almost right over the pavillion. I don't mean to be too curmudgeonly, as I had a great time at the fly-in, but this is a recurring safety issue, and should be addressed. - -------- do not archive Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=427820#427820

    Subject: fly-ins
    Hey Mike and everyone else. I am toying with the idea of flying Marci out to the big antique fly-in in Blakesburg, but then I got invited to the labor day fly-in at Red Stewart (Waynesville, ON) Here's the link, ck it out. I hear it's awesome. We can fly in anytime they're not doing their airshow and camp out. They have gas and it is a GREAT grass field. I think we should get a gaggle of Piets to attend since there are a lot within easy striking distance. Mike D, why don't you fly up to my field in Fallmouth, KY and hangout with us for a night. I'll show you the studio etc and then we fly up the next day. The invite is open to anyone who wants to use our place as a stopover. http://www.stewartsaircraft.net/airshow-2014.html Douwe

    IF you're too lazy, or just don't need one more system to fabricate from scratch, you can buy most of the smoke system from the Sonex guys. That's what I did, but I was madly trying to finish and was happy to shell out some bucks to save time. Douwe

    Hi John I just checked my plans, and, as bill stated, the lower drawing has the dimensions to be concerned about- follow that one The upper drawing is there so you can plot the points to draw the airfoil if you don't have the full-size drawing. As far as the horizontal main beam- the 5/8" is right- anything that winds up sticking above the surface will be sanded down flush later. -------- Earl Brown I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I intended to be.

    traffic patterns are a suggestion.. only a real idiot and self ceneterd ass would not fly a pattern.. we have been flying the same rectangle pattern for at least 80 years. it works, its safe but there is always some one that thinks they are smarter.. i saw a fellow get his ass whipped big time in fromt of the gas pump because he didnt fly the pattern. this guy flew a left hand pattern when a right hand pattern is clearly published. he made the other guy make a go around so when they met at the pump the big guy cleaned the ramp with the little guys face. it was one of the highlights of my aviation 60 year career.. on a personal note when i was a kid i hit a cessna 210 making a straight in approach at gaineaville , tx muni airport. the guy was an ATP but he thought that the rules and SOPs didnt apply to him. hyde Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=427845#427845

    Thanks Mike for the smoker system idea! Here a video of my son and myself and he did not know I installed the smoker system!

    Subject: A Pietenpol Cousin
    Very nice, Gerry! A friend owns two.quick (compared to the Piet!) and sturdy little planes. Gary Boothe NX308MB From: owner-pietenpol-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-pietenpol-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Gerry Holland Sent: Friday, August 01, 2014 10:22 PM Subject: Pietenpol-List: A Pietenpol Cousin In an email conversation with Mike Cuy he suggested I circulate some basic details of my Corben Ace as a cousin of the Piet. It too saw the light of day in 1929 as a homebuilt plan. I live in England, the home of a few great Pietenpols and it seems natural to keep an eye on their life here and also the US fraternity and beyond. In fact I have the last Corben in Europe as far as I know. I crashed the second to last in 2012! Oops! Total write off. Mine is around 50+ years old and ex-Savannah, GA, an import. I reassembled it and rebuilt as necessary after buying as a dismantled unit. I sent my very tired A65-8 to be professionally rebuilt and it turns a vintage Flottorp 72" X 50" Prop. Again old but overhauled at Hercules Props. http://www.hercprops.com/ The Corben uses a Clark Y Airfoil full stop and a 26 foot span. It flies beautifully. I decided to go for shabby chic with polished aluminium and latex paint rolled on the rest. Great fun but it does look odd to any observer passing to see an aircraft being rolled with paint. The finish is dull but in keeping. A Thank you to Douwe, Oscar and others for sharing their Piet's. Gave me lots of ideas. If you visit UK give me a shout for a beer. I'm in the West Country in Somerset. Obligatory photo attached. Regards Gerry Gerry Holland gholland@content-stream.co.uk +44 (0)7808 402404 White Ox Mead Airstrip, Bath. England

    Need dates and such. Quite possible would be flying DOWN to your field and then in. Sounds like fun and I'd LOVE to see the studio! Tools Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=427851#427851
