    I don't see any! Ok, maybe there is... perhaps it's just that as a dad I can't see past my son soloing! Really proud of that kid. Robert took the photo from the Taylorcraft while I flew. Was a GREAT flight! Robert was also kind enough to get a video of an entire flight with Scott flying with his Gopro onboard 2RN.

    (I DO need!). Wait! Don't order those Aeronca Strut Forks (pn 05-08575) from Aircraft Spruce! I have two of them I don't need and I DO need 4 turnbuckles. AN130-8S or AN130-16S would be fine. (The small ones that would be ok for the tail section cables.) Let me know offline if anyone has a need for the forks and would like to trade.... Thanks!

    Thanks! Getting him to solo was EASY. I just checked his logbook, about 8 hours total. He's really ONLY ever flown a Piet. Has about 40 hours now. Getting him to take the written... got my hands full! My nagging isn't going to do a thing. His desire to take folks for rides... that may do it. Or the fact he has to wait for me to be home to fly, another thing in my favor! I told him once he gets his PPL, I'll give him the Piet. Fingers crossed! It's a double whammie, giving him the Piet MAY finally ge me off my arse to build my own! Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=428093#428093

    Subject: Pietenpol "Blitzkrieg" to fly again
    From: "Baldeagle" <baldeagle27@earthlink.net>
    For those who weren't at Brodhead or aren't on Facebook, here are a few photos of our (Bob Coolbaugh and I) new project. It's an original Air Camper built in about 1934 or '35 in Grand Rapids, Michigan by a guy named Centilli (trying to track down his family now to see if they have any photos), and later sold to a Stan Richards in Ohio, who kept it into the 1960s. It went through a couple of other owners in Ohio before being sold to Texas, and then showed up on a trailer at Brodhead last month. The guys from Texas had started to sell it off piecemeal, and as I watched the parts start to disappear from it I got the feeling that it was a shame that something that had been together for 80 years was going to end up as a pile of sticks in a dumpster somewhere. So I told Bob we had to save it, and we bought the engine and what was left of the fuselage and tails, and then went around to the people who had bought parts and bought them back. I think we got everything back except the mag switch, gascolator, and prop. There was no wing, but we've already found a complete wing, ready for cover, that was built by Ed Sampson, which is the next best thing to an original wing, and was offered to us at a very reasonable price. https://fbcdn-sphotos-e-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xaf1/v/t1.0-9/10482657_10202773342478566_5542576948180958080_n.jpg?oh=d67f79a6990738df3d38055d56feb5bd&oe=543B913A&__gda__=1415008910_706e77e04cc11c7a6e542082396e5a4e -------- do not archive Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=428098#428098

    The amazing thing was that a few weeks earlier, on the Flight Archives page on Facebook, there had been some photos of a really neat looking Pietenpol, and I had even saved one of them to my computer since I liked the paint scheme so much. While researching our new project I realised that it was the same airplane. It's built pretty much to the Flying and Glider plans, except that it looks like it had the 1933 style split axle landing gear at first, the mount bushings are still there. At some point it was modified to a Sky Scout style landing gear, which, along with the spinner and covered front cockpit, gives it a pretty racy look. -------- do not archive Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=428099#428099

    FANTASTIC! Nearly all the tools I own started out in a heap like that. Most folks sort their garbage and feel good about recycling... THAT is REAL recycling. Bravo! "We all die, the goal isn't to live forever. The goal, is to create something that does." You're doing Centilli a real favor. Footnote: Ironically I JUST heard that quote on an episode of Criminal Minds, not half hour ago. Can't remember who said it. Seems appropriate. Good luck with the project, looking forward to tracking that. Tools Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=428100#428100

    A lot of people assumed that since the wood was old and dirty it wasn't useable, but I think as much as 70 or 80 per cent may in fact be saveable. We're going to try to preserve as much of the original structure as possible.

    Oh ya. Planning on Toolstock 15 South around late Feb or so. Also planning on having a Toolstock North event here in OSH... no determinations on when yet though. Need to poll the crowd. That'll be a smaller event much lesser in scope. Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=428108#428108

    Tools, Guess what? That is the exact same way I got my Piet. Dad always told me that I could have it if I got my PPL. Well, in 1993 that happened but I was 32 not a 16 year old when I finally got my license. Dad followed through with his promise. He flew it for 21 years and I guess I have now had it 21 years. Wow, just realized that. That's something. I always thought that he was the best dad a guy could have. I guess that there are two of you now.

    From: "wheelharp" <wheelharp@gmail.com>
    I'm sure it has been covered somewhere as extensive as this list is, but I have been unsuccessful finding thread if it exists, so I'll break down and ask... I was wondering how to locate other builders as well as finished Piets- I know the member pages sometimes show location if you opt to show it, but I'm sure there are many that don't show up. I missed a Piet that was being built just a few miles from my house. By the time I found out, it was long gone. ARRGHHH!!! I would really like to visit fellow builders within driving distance to look at their project as I build mine. Thanks!

    Hi buddy.... My name is Kenny Crider and I live in Northeast Arkansas about 30 miles west of Jonesboro. in the Small town of Swifton. You would be more than welcome to visit . I have my fuselage mostly built sitting on the split axle type gear with Die spring suspension. at the present I am running control cables to the rear control surfaces and building my break pedals for my small go cart type brakes. I have a few,(about 10, wing ribs made, nothing on the wings or center section built yet. My phone is 870 926-7165... I am attempting to use a Jeep 134 flathead engine which will be similar to a Ford A... If that don't pan out, it will probably be a 65 continental.
