[quote="paradox4u2(at)yahoo.com"]Hey guys, Appreciate the response on the wing dilemma. Just to answer a few questions; space is not a problem. I fortunately have an old WW II hanger for a work shop (in the back) so I've got plenty of room. I work nights at the airport and I work on the Piet at night at work. Just a perk of flying medevac at night with your base next to the hanger. So I guess I'm a night owl. It appears that most choose the three piece wing due to space issues but I didn't know if there were some other advantages besides the fact that you can trailer it easier. I'm planning on the one piece wing unless someone can convince me otherwise. Of course, when I get to the spar scarf issues, I may change my mind. Anyhoo, thanks for the input. Looking forward to the endeavor!

I know the difference in weights between a wood and metal prop of similar size, so I can make the calculations. I managed to move the wing back another 1.5" and will see what that does. I weighed it today, will see how the math compares to the real thing. I'm making progress! Hope I don't have to use a metal prop or extra weights. Maybe a heavy "spinner"? It just takes time, hood I'm not in a hurry.

Corky would have had to do a new W&B after the prop was changed to wood. If it would help you to have the information on the weight difference, I can dig out the logbooks on 41CC and see what I find there. Here's how it looked back then: > > http://www.flysquirrel.net/piets/NX41CC01.jpg > > -------- > Oscar Zuniga > Medford, OR > Air Camper NX41CC "Scout" > A75 power, 72x36 Culver prop > > > > > Read this topic online here: > > http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=464223#464223 > > > > > > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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.
