Hello everyone my name is Jim Lingenfelter. I live in Tidewater Virginia. Ihave been an A&P for 7 years, at first working on Navy A-6's, now working ona P-40E-1 for a place called the Fighter Factory. After we finish buildingthe P-40, we have a Corsair to build. Boy do I love this job! My wife and Ihave wanted to build a Pietenpol for about 4 years now but kids, school,etc., etc. have kept us from starting. I bought the plans about 2 years ago,along with the plans for the aerial (biplane). Have any of you built theAerial biplane?Please feel free to write me I love to talk airplanes!________________________________________________________________________________

Myfavoritis ever fighter is the P-40. I have a room full of pictures,photos etc of the P-40, especially like the Flying Tiger era. Have somesigned stuff by R.T. Smith, (had to pick someone to shine after). (Myother favorite is the WWI Nieuport). Guess you came to the right place to contact Piet builders, plenty ofconstruction, advice and kibitzing here ;) You'll probably hear foryourself, but my vote is against the bi-wing, however you are the onedeciding on what your project is to be, good luck...Gary...(South Texas)________________________________________________________________________________
