Yesterday, I participated in a Young Eagles rally at South Boston, Va. 73 kids were flown, including 9 in my Piet. Mike Denton flew over in his Piet from Clarksville and we had a good time comparing and contrasting. I admire Mike's ability to work with what he had to produce an honest airplane. Hope to see you again, Mike. Maybe we can put together a Piet flyin for those of us in Virginia and North Carolina. After the Young Eagles rally, I flew down to Triangle North Airport near Louisburg, NC and met Chuck Borsuk. Chuck is building a Piet in a hangar there. Looks like most of his wood work is done and a lot of his steel fittings. Very nice workmanship! Great meeting both of you. One of the best things about the Pietenpol is the people you meet who are building or flying them. Matt Paxton________________________________________________________________________________
