OK overall but the author is obviously not a pilot. It irritates me when he confuses a stalled engine and stalled wing when describing a crash. Also he states that he n Richard Byrd's trimotor, when the main engine quit, the other engine kicked in. Seems good a discussing the era.

The bent-and-clamped allthread is something I've never seen before, but it obviously got you an adjustable jig! Interesting to find that you've got your cabanes just about where the ones are on 41CC with the same engine. One difference between our airplanes is that you have the fuel tank in the wing, while 41CC has a welded aluminum tank in the nose. I wonder how close to 4" your cabane angle would be with a nose tank? -------- Oscar Zuniga Medford, OR Air Camper NX41CC "Scout" A75 power Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=452822#452822 ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 09:11:59 PM PST US Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: Cabane strut angle with heavy engine From: "taildrags" By the way, 'planes&bikes', noticing the registration markings on the side of your airplane I thought I would mention that you can use 'NX41YB' and dispense with the passenger warning ('EXPERIMENTAL') near the entry to the cockpit. Gives your airplane more of a 1929 period look, too. -------- Oscar Zuniga Medford, OR Air Camper NX41CC "Scout" A75 power Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=452823#452823 ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 11:48:47 PM PST US From: "andrea" Subject: Pietenpol-List: Shock cords Hello to all! A simple and direct survey: speaking about wooden landing gear and shock cord, how many loops and what cross section are you guys using? Thanks to all.
