[To my knowledge there never has been a perfect Bernie Piet. ever built, I've seen
many, Some are close, but not a perfect Pietenpol, Bernie always changed something,
how many builders use cardboard for the leading edge ? Allen Rudolf's
Piet was the closest I've seen, and flown. I have a bushel basket full of Piet
hats, Sure must be fooling someone, As you all have noticed no two of my Piets
were ever a true Piet, But I got credit for the changes, most of the time,
at least to my face. I wonder what was said when I wasn't looking ? Most new
Ideas keep the Piet basics
going, keep up the good work guys.

As everyone knows, the only way any airplane can genuinely attain the prestigious
title "Pietenpol Air Camper" is to fastidiously follow the 1932 Flying and
Glider Manual. No variations or modifications are allowed. All others are
fakes, alterations and copies. I myself, have chosen to unswervingly follow these
plans. Except for a few minor areas (for safety sake) and a few other minor
areas (just a small tweek of design to put my own flair on it) and a few
other minor areas (just to modernize it a bit).
