Gordon: Am a member and for the small cost it is worth it. However, (personalopinion here) this on line forum has provided me with a whole lot moreuseful construction tips than the BPA newsletter or webpage. The newsletter is much more a show & tell forum of who is doing what orwho is planning on doing something someday, than a source of information forthe serious builder. Having said that, I must come back around and commend Grant formaintaining a web page and a newsletter that keeps the Pietenpol Ideal aliveand well. That I think is its' real function. Besides that, he is a reallydecent human being.WarrenGordon Brimhall wrote:> How many of you are members of the Buckeye Pietenpol Association?>> Is it a good association to belong too?>> Isn't this List associated with it?>> I'm thinking about joining come January.>> I belong to EAA already but not a local chapter yet as none are close to> us.>> GordonGordon: Am a member and for the small cost it is worth it.However, (personal opinion here) thison line forum has provided me with a whole lot more useful constructiontips than the BPA newsletter or webpage.

Love Thatsite.Now to just get some information on Brodhead as the EAA thing is July28th thru Aug 3rd1999 I am interested in the Camping Arrangements, Cost if any and sofourth. We have friends that live in the Milwaukee area that we stayedwith last June but I would want to stay where the action is in ourCamper.GordonWarren Shoun wrote:> Gordon:> Am a member and for the small cost it is worth it.

I heartily second the opinion. The contacts alone are worth it. I boughtevery back issue to year one, and read them cover to cover. I highlightedevery point of interest, then added my highlighted points to Grant Mclaren'sPietenpol Notebook. Lot's of construction hints, examples of how otherssolved various problems (like brake pedal locations, seat belt attachpoints, Model A tips and references, weight and balance calculations,etc.)that I would have forgotten during the 4 year build. Along with theF&G Manuals, and Don Pietenpol's booklet, it comes as close to a builder'smanual as you can get. At $3.00 this is a deal that can't be beat!Al SwansonFuselage done for the winter, ribs from Charles Brubeck, starting the metalwork.>>Well I plan to join come January.
