| Subject: | Re: Ragwing Ultra-Piet |
For a variety of reasons, I am in the process of selling my full-scale Piet project,
and am planning on starting on a Ragwing version, so Ill be interested in
following your progress. I will probably make the Heath Parasol version, just
because I like the lines of the tail feathers and wings. Roughly half of the
Ragwing designs are essentially the same plane with variations on empennage
lines, outer wing shape and wing attachment. I will probably build it to register
as a LSA so that i dont have to be excessively concerned about weight (also,
my life insurance policy specifically excludes death by ultralight accident,
but its OK if i die in a certificated, registered aircraft). I only weigh
135 lbs. so a little extra weight in the aircraft for instruments, brakes, etc.
is no big deal.

Kip
I have the plans for both the Heath and the Ultra-piet
I went with the piet for both the pietenpol look and because i think it looks a
little sturdier, there's a little more plywood in it
the heath does look easier to build though,
either way keep in touch i'd love to hear how the build goes and how it flies
