Michael,I am over near Taylor, TX. Northeast of Austin about 20 miles. Our airstrip just got on the San Antonio sectional so if you are ever in thearea, look for Macho Grande airport. Right now I have a Piet underconstruction (working on the gear). If you are ever flying from Corpus to theDallas area, feel free to drop in. We should be right on the way. 2500' grass,north-south. we are 2.5 miles from T74 on a 155 heading. Regrds.Bob Seibert________________________________________________________________________________

Would like to come by next time I venture south on I-35. I sometimes take the Georgetownexit toward Burnet on the way to Leakey.I have stopped at the old Tim's Airpark....whichI hear may be changing. I have yet to fly mine. I bought it last Decemberand still have not had the opportunity to fly it from Sinton (near Corpus) back to Dallas.I would like to talk to you about the flying characteristics of the PIET so I would knowwhat to expect. If you will leave a phone numberand best time to call I will try to contact you soon.By the way, I understand there is a PIET being builtin Uvalde.Thanks again for the response.Best wishes....Mike>Michael King wrote:>> >> Howdy Gang,>> >> Are there any PIET owners / flyers / builders in Texas?>> >> If so, please let me know.

Bob,Thanks for the invite. I will make it a point to fly the PIET or drive over to see you. Is your a "true to the plans" Piet, a variation of the original plans, or morelike a GN-1?Good luck on the construction.Best wishes,MikeDallasmikek(at)nstar.net>Michael,>I am over near Taylor, TX.

Hi Mike,Please stop on by if you are in the area. My number here is 512-365-8918. Yes, this Piet is a more or less "true to plans" long fuselage version. Itswood but with Cub type gear and spoke wheels. (I actually had it setting onthe mains last weekend.)Right now it is back off the gear so I can clean up the welds, etc.I am trying to put together some mechanical disc brakes. I just need them forlanding at paved strips once in a while. Does anybody out there have any ideason a simple mechanical caliper design?Regards,Bob Seibert________________________________________________________________________________
