Subject: | Just Two Days Left! - Still Behind... |
Dear Listers,
There are just two more days left in this years List Fund Raiser. We are still
way behind last year in terms of the number of contributions and total contribution
amount. I really want to keep providing these services to the homebuilt
community, but it take resources. Since there's no advertising budget or deep
pockets to keep the operation a float, its solely your generosity during the
Fund Raiser that keeps things going. Please make a Contribution today.
If you've been putting off showing your support for the Lists, now is the time
to do it!
Make a contribution with a Credit Card or though PayPal at that Matronics Contribution
web site:

Or, drop a check in the mail:
Matronics / Matt Dralle

Hi Jake,
I don't know if your internet connection allows you to upload them (in terms
of time, cost, or other limits), but have you considered sending them to
Chris Tracy at www.westcoastpiet.com? This would allow a semi-permanent
archiving and access for many of us.
westcoastpiet@westcoastpiet.com
Maybe Chris has an ftp site or something like dropbox that you can upload
the images efficiently to.

Jake,
That would be really great! Thanks you so much! I guess you really are as nice
a guy as Brian said you are!
I changed my rigging on the aileron idler cable to be just like the photo you sent.
I'm making cable ferrules just like the ones they used. With the additional
photos I might change some other things...this plane may never get finished.
I guess getting there is the best part of the journey!
Thanks so much,

Jeff and Jake,
Or I could just give the memory stick to Chris after I download the pictures. That
would give me a good excuse to fly to Lincoln again and see what Gary Boothe
is doing. Chris is close by, I think. My Aeronca, or Waiex should be able to
handle the load!
Thanks, Jeff,

I say we drive to Ray's place to get them and also see the Scout. That is

Date and time? I'm ready! Now that all the heavy lifting is done, you volunteer
to come? Wings are on and ailerons working. Most cables are complete. Wow, it
takes a lot of cable to get one of these things in the air, especially when I
make a few mistakes!

Subject: | Re: Radiator from a P-51 ? |
I'm ready. But I have cataract surgery 12/16 preceded by Dr appt. 12/9 and 12/10.
And that is only in one eye, so I won't be totally blind. Any other day will
be fine between now and Christmas. I can always make room on my calendar for
airplanes.
And what does this have to do with radiators from a P-51?

Subject: | Pietenpol project For Sale |
Started my Pietenpol last November but have decided to sell my project. After
much consideration, it looks like the Pietenpol will not fit my flying needs.
Status of the project is:
The fuselage is framed up, bottom attached, seat backs and bottom framing installed.
Firewall and other bulkheads cut but not installed.
Wing center section about 90% done, right wing panel about 80% done. Riblett 613.5
airfoil. All ribs completed. Have spars for left wing panel prepped and ready
for ribs.
Horizontal and vertical stabs, elevators and rudder are ready for varnish and hinge
installation.
Corvair motor disassembled, cleaned and case parts painted. Basically ready for
reassembly with Wm Wynne's conversion parts. Have old cylinders, rods etc
for use as cores.
I planned on the split axle landing gear so I have a set of Cleveland 6" wheels,
brakes, bolt on axles and 6.00 x 8.00 tires.
1 sheet (4ft x 8ft) each of 1/16 and 1/8 (for fuselage sides) birch aircraft plywood.
Various 4130 wing fittings completed.
If interested, please contact me off list.

Subject: | Re: Pietenpol Engines |
I am fascinated by electric flight. For my weekend flying an electric motor
would be awesome. One good flight of less than an hour with a good reserve.
quieter and when you are done you just plug the plane in and go home. Don't
have to get gas.
When I deployed I did not want my wife to have to struggle with a gas mower
and all that comes with it. IE gas, oil, sparkplugs and so on. When I came
home I got used to using it and I am a convert. The big problem is usually
the batteries and you just replace them.
I will eventually buy an electric car when the prices and performance are
right. Getting a electric Chevy Suburban could be on the horizon.
My understanding is that a Pietenpol is a poor candidate for electric
power, as electric power is at this time. Too draggy. But I am willing to
be wrong.
The electric motor is much smaller and lighter but the batteries are heavy.
Having said that, you would be able to replace a heavy Model A engine and
the fuel tanks with batteries. The wings of a Piet would be perfect for
Solar cells, just to extend the range.
I fantasize about converting my old 1948 Vtail bonanza to electric. But it
is most likely too heavy.

It seems to me that an electric Piet is feasible--it currently would only
be limited by flight time (battery capacity).
Sure, a Piet has lots of drag, but if you look at what's being done you
can see examples like the Pipistrel electric 2-place training plane which
has a 31 lb Siemens motor which is supposedly equivalent to a 110 HP
aircraft motor, and the 3500 lb Nissan Leaf car which has amazing
acceleration, to see that electric should work in a Pietenpol once the
batteries can hold enough juice to overcome a Piet's extra drag for a
reasonable length of time. Even today, if you could live with a
single-place Piet, an hour of flight is probably possible. Some of the
new car battery packs are getting pretty compact.

Subject: | Re: Honda Goldwing radiator |
My 'Goldwing radiator came In the mail today and after un-packing it I noticed
it would fit behind the prop and above the prop shaft. I believe I will try it
to see if it has enough cooling ability. It will surely look cool in that spot.

OK... I'll send a flash stick and try to post them to west coast Piet. I post at
lunch from my work computer which blocks access to all large file sites. I'll
find some way that works. Finished up the wing strut ftgs today should be assembling
the whole airplane for the first time on Sunday (to measure the wing
strut lengths) so I'll post pictures soon - pretty exciting.......

Well I finally found pics of Jim Malley's Fiesta Piet.
As you can see he has two rads beside the prop
shaft and had to add one more small one just ahead
of the landing gear.
