Pietenpol-List: Anyone build the single piece wing?

Post by matronics »

Original Posted By: "Pocono John"
Setup a temporary workbench and table in the hangar to start the overhaul process on this A-65-8 that I picked upin Michigan last fall. These sure are cool little, powerful, sturdy little motors. This one feels much heavier than theoriginal I overhauled 16 years ago.......Mike C.Ohio[cid:image001.jpg(at)01CFCDDD.F07A09F0]________________________________________________________________________________Subject: Pietenpol-List: Anyone build the single piece wing?

Just curious if you'd do it again, and how you mounted the wing; and any otherissues. I don't yet know which one to build, so I'm building only the ribs thatare common to both.--------JohnRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: A-65 major overhaul begins

Nice Mike. Very cool that you get to overhaul another one now. Can we assume with this new powerful motor that you will make Brodhead '15? :O)=0A=0A=0ADan Helsper=0ALoensloe Airfield=0A

Hello, Pietenpolers;I just got this info from the fellow who is getting the Vi Kapler tail hinge castingsset up for me, but that's a different subject. If anyone is looking fora Cloudcars prop for their Corvair Piet, it sounds like Jay Anderson is tryingto get out of the prop business and has about a 6 month delay getting propsout, so you may want to jump on this:>He does have a few corvair piet props on hand if you know anybody>looking. Most of his props are in the $1000 range all ready to go or >you can buy one fresh off his carving machine and finish it yourself.>Jay can be reached at 1-325-356-2810.--------Oscar ZunigaMedford, ORAir Camper NX41CC "Scout"A75 powerRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Santiago Morete's panel

Two friends of mine worked together and built 2 one piece wings. Just looking atthem and I see they take a huge amount of room in the shop. Trying to move themis a 2 man job. If you have plenty of room and someone that is going to helpyou it might not be undo able. Also it takes a very long work bench. Not tryingto be too negative just trying to give a heads up.--------Building steel fuselage aircamper.Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: NX992WD "Finished"

Mike, the tank is a fairly simple square box with an airfoil contoured top. Wantedto use it as the top and avoid additional covering/paneling. Then pop rivetsand LOTS of Proseal!Here are links to a couple pictures.
