The West Coast Pietenpol Gathering is just days away. It is THIS SATURDAY! Come out and join us. We always have a great time and some great planes. Location: Frazier Lake Airpark 1C9 (very nice grass strip 2500'x100') located between Hollister and Gilroy California. http://www.frazierlake.com/ Charlie Miller and family put on a good bbq chicken lunch and for those of us camping over Saturday night my wife will be cooking up some hamburgers and dogs. If I haven't heard from you already then send me a quick note so that we can have a rough count for lunch. I already know some of you are coming and who normally camps over but if you didn't camp last year and you're planning on camping with us let me know so we can have enough food. I'm looking forward to seeing old friends and making new ones, Mike Groah N414MV ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 08:14:20 AM PST US Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: West Coast Pietenpol Gathering June 6, 2015 From: "aerocarjake" Hope to make it one year....

I think that if you were able to compare them, you would probably find a difference of less than 1 pound. Remember that you will need to weight the prop flange that goes with the taper shaft. I say, use what you already have or what you run across first. -------- 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=443022#443022 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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.
