There was even a Piet some years ago that got passed with a declared gross of 1500lb! You have your DAR, we have MD-RA. The inspectors are fellow builders. A couple of local ones have built wood AC and even designed AC. I don't expect any issues. I've had it on display at our local RAA June flyin and show. Two of these inspectors have looked at it and commented favourably. On a side note. Transport doesn't give a s--t if you fly through a barn. Just DO NOT, however, carry a passenger while doing so!

Also there are a few of us that have lathes for the adjustment of the O.D...

My axle is also 1.5 inch OD. So there is no clearance and the bushings won't slide onto the axle. How do I remedy that situation? Back to the machine shop or can I make the bush ID bigger myself? -------- Vincent Dunn Salem Oregon vincentkdunn(at)yahoo.com Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=482533#482533 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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.
