Now I won't be the only one on the block with one. Make sure that you lube the spar where it pivots. Not a lot but maybe a couple times a year. I lost the right side of mine in flight about 15 years ago. The spar broke and there it went. No damage to anything else on the plane and I didn't find that it was missing until the next pre-flight. It was easy to fix and has been trouble free since. You'll love it, -------- Scott Liefeld Flying N11MS since March 1972 Steel Tube C-85-12 Wire Wheels Brodhead in 1996 Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=431978#431978 ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 01:36:56 PM PST US Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: New Bird in the Air From: "nightmare" great video. music, engine noises, and air to air. only thing missing was a wheel falling off with subsequent instructions to land in the pond. Beautiful airplane too by the way. -------- Paul Donahue Started 8-3-12 do not archive Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=431993#431993 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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.
