Ryan I didn't get the orange manual when I ordered the plans. Does anyone
know off-hand if there are still available separately?
Thanks

Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: Drawing the rib
Hi John,
The rib on page 30 in the orange manual the family sells is the rib from the
Pietenpol Air Camper articles in the 1932 Flying and Glider manual. I took a
couple pics of the illustration from my respective copies of the original
F&G Manual, the EAA reprint, and the orange manual (which is a repackaging
of the text from the F&G manuals with some additional content).
The Air Camper and the Sky Scout use the same airfoil and same basic rib,
however the brace aft of the rear spar was modified by the time of
publication of the Sky Scout plans in the 1933 Flying and Glider manual; it
goes aft from the top of the rear spar versus aft from the bottom as shown
in the '32 drawing. As noted in the text:
"I wish to call your attention to the brace back of the rear wing beam. This
was changed from the plans of the Air Camper, and I advise all of you who
have not built your wing ribs to build them this way."
This change was included in the "Improved" Air Camper plans that are sold by
the family, thusly the rib on page 5 reflects that modification.
I've got a set of plans and one of the full size rib prints as well, I just
haven't had time yet to loft the front section and check it again the
full-size print. If the full size print doesn't match up, then I would think
either something was inadvertently altered in their duplication process, or
maybe there was an error made when the full size print was drawn. I don't
have it with me at work, but I seem to recall that drawing being signed by
Donald....I could be wrong....

Jon,
Glad to hear you enjoyed the College in Mexico MO. If you liked that one, try
Barnwell SC in November. Absolutely the nicest people host the event. Food and
beverages are plentiful and delicious. 100% of the registration fee covers
the food, beverages, etc. The airport added lots of lighting in the hangar -
which the "tenants" remove their aircraft for us. Half the hangar is used for
building the other half set up with tables and chairs for breaks, meals, etc.
This will be trip #5 for me in this location. My engine ran during my trip #2
(2011 college #21)
If any one has question feel free to email me off list rdewenter at woh.rr.com
Hoping to see Dan Glaze again this year. I know my friends John Francis, and
Chuck Campbell are planning on running a new engine! and friend Christopher price
will be there wrenching. This should be quite an active event.

I'd like to make SC if I could. Not sure what I'd bring though; I'm down to about
20 bolts before it's all apart and I have the crankshaft out. Nothing to build
as I have to send cores in and so on. Hmmm, maybe just go without engine pieces?
Would my wife have enjoy it?

Pocono John
You will be able to see engines in about every stage of completion, learn how to
correctly assemble, set timing, adjust lifters, see small problems (you could
face) solved in front of your eyes, meet nice people, LEARN, and volunteer
your "tear down" experience, help with the test stand.
Come to the event if you can make it.
Bob

That's awesome, and a very good looking machine. Just think...you can now fly 2hrs
away for lunch, and fly back, as if you're in a 172. No tinkering, no worries
all year long. I pop the cowl off once or twice/year and she's clean as a
whistle...and it always starts w/in 3 swings of the prop. Also liking the 2300
rpm's for a red line...still very antique-like. Not knocking other's choices
of powerplants(disclaimer), but sure dig the good old bulletproof A65's :-)

Jeff,
Looks great! I really like your cowl. Reminds me of the early Monocoupe cowl.
Very nice. I get the feeling you're really gonna like that set up. With such
a great weight and cg it should really perform well. First flight repeat scheduled
any time soon?

Jeff,
Beautiful prop, did you carve it? Obviously oak, what size? Have you tried it,
yet? I really admire the "cowling", very neat and clean.
Thanks for the pics,

I like the cowling too. The prop is a work of art man. The install is "clean".
Happy flying.
I have gotten comments on my cowl too. Most good, but some have said they didn't
like it. That's OK. I really like the pre-flight.
