Since I am still working on my tail wheel endorsement, I am having a friend do the test flight. If there are no squawks, He will then fly it from my airport, Porter Co. Regional to Starke Co. airport. Starke Co has a nice grass strip where I will be able to practice before I bring it back home.

Thanks for the info on the two books on the history of flight in San Antonio. I will be ordering both books. I keep looking for more images of Jennys with a Kelly Field association.

I actually did the painting of all of my control surfaces and center section in a spray booth they have at Starke. You are right about how nice the grass strip is. I have a friend who recently bought a 1929 straight wing Waco 10 who learned to fly it off of the grass at Starke. This is where he keeps it along with his Citabria. His instructor is the same person who will be test flying my Piet. Also Jim Haklin keeps his almost complete Pietenpol at Starke Co. Hopefully I can get my 40 hrs. flown off so I can bring the Piet to Brodhead next year.
