Yes it is Dan, they were used on various models, heated, operable to 100,000 feet
and 6Gs. Two day movement. Just what a Piet needs! Works well.

The Rudolph Piet just goes to prove that Ford powered Piets can fly on and on and
on!
As far as the EAA, I quit the association some years ago when the flagship publication
(the main reason I joined EAA 35 years ago) featured "homebuilts" that
cost in the six figures, green tractors, and other things that did not interest
me or reflect what I consider to be experimental aviation. The one shining
star in the EAA line of publications has been the "Hints for Homebuilders" series
of video clips. THAT is real stuff, by real people, for real people. Yes,
they have a few "factory people" in some of the videos, but they are sharing
valuable skills and information.

Jack;
You'll find that the layer of dust and rust on your building skills is pretty thin
and it wipes off easily. Glad you're back in the shop! To elaborate a bit
on what Dan said about panel hardware, it's because of the mag compass that
brass (or nonferrous) hardware is recommended. Ferrous metal in proximity to
the compass can affect it. I don't see your mag compass in the picture, so maybe
if you have it located on the underside of the wing it won't matter if you
don't use brass hardware on your panel. I think brass would enhance the already
very attractive look of the panel though.

Jake;
Not sure what you have in mind for the nose art for your airplane, but several of us have had very good results working with Dennis Demeter at Avgrafix. http://www.avgrafix.com/ His work is excellent and his prices are reasonable for custom graphics. Matter of fact, Denny is making me some vinyl graphics for the two kayaks that I'm building for my wife and I. Also secret, but I hope to unveil them in time to go paddling next spring. A lot of Piet building skills translate directly over to boat-building, too.

Hi all
I agree with points made about changes at EAA. They've (we've) become more and
more corporate over the years. I don't like the fact that 6 figure aircraft
are promoted or reviewed either. I think a lot of it stems from people wanting
instant airplane,quick build, high performance stuff which is way beyond many
(my) budgets.
On the other hand, EAA has led the way to many positive changes as far as FAA
regs regarding GA. Also, where else can I get assistance from a recognized
Tech. Counsellor?
I feel that even considering the negative aspects we are a great organization.

The "Experimenter" was more to my liking. It is still online, but apparently
most members are not interested in real homebuilding anymore. When I tell
people I am building a Pietenpol the first question is: "Where did you get
your kit?"
I guess most people interested in aviation now are of the carriage trade
and several hundred thousand dollars is peanuts and so the EAA caters to
them. At least that was the feeling I got since Paul Poberezny hated
ultralights so much. I assume the EAA knows their target market better than
I do.

Graphics are secret, kayaks are definitely NOT! I am very pleased to recommend and promote the skin-on-frame kayaks and boats designed by Dave Gentry. Simple to build, affordable, well documented and tested, and beautiful boats. http://gentrycustomboats.com/home.html . I'm building a pair of Chuckanut 12 kayaks and I also plan to build a Shenandoah Whitehall rowboat for our friends up in Washington who have two young daughters and will soon need to have a way to take the girls and all their camping gear out to the small uninhabited islands in Rosario Strait to show them the beauty of the whole Puget Sound island region from a sturdy rowboat and by the side of a campfire. They already have ocean kayaks, but now with the children and gear they will need a rowboat! Keeps you fit, too, and lets you teach navigation and seamanship while you pull-pull-pull on the oars with your children in the boat and orcas keeping you company.
The only reason this is even vaguely aviation-related is that the skin-on-frame
construction technique uses wood framing with heat-shrunk fabric covering, and
rather than sewing and stapling the fabric on our kayaks, I plan to use Poly-Tak
to cement the fabric to the frames and finishing tapes to complete the overlaps
and seams after heat-tautening the fabric with my covering irons.
Might even fill the flotation compartments fore and aft with ping-pong balls or
empty milk cartons ;o)
