I had submitted some additionalmoney to the extend my subscription to the end of the year and wassuppossed to get a couple more issues, but they never came. There somediscussion at Brodhead this summer about who was to take over and Ithought there was a couple of people who were willing to do it and itonly needed to be decided who was going to get it. Don't know what'sgoing on, but it doesn't look good. I really feel bad about this and really miss the newsletters. Grant dida great job on it and needs to be commended for his work.John LangstonPipe Creek, TXnle97(at)juno.com writes:>>>Hi Guys ,> Does anyone know if the BPA is still an active >organization or>is it defunct?

Heard from Grant. He is totally involved in building his house. When it isfinished, he will proably put out the last newsletter.For those who have received the newsletter in the past this is not news. Hehas said the above in both the newsletter & on his web page.Mike B Piet N687MB ( Mr Sam )________________________________________________________________________________

I then sent extra money and have still heard nothing. That's a shame to end it like that...don't know what happened...he had done a fantastic job and just never seemed like a guy who would go back on his word and quit early Don________________________________________________________________________________Date: Sun, 27 Feb 2000 12:55:42 -0500

I sent my check for membership to the BPA more than a month ago. It has not beencashed, and I have not been contacted in any way.The website is still showing the cover of a newsletter more than a year old.Has this assn gone dormant?I had planned to order several of the publications they list and sell, but I amreluctant to send another check not knowing if anyone is on the other end.Is this type of delayed response and out-of-date website condition common for theBPA, or is something amiss? I'm not judging--just trying to get a feel forwhat to expect.--------Andy Garrett'General Purpose Creative Dude'Haysville, KansasRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ______Date: Fri, 13 Mar 2015 14:55:03 -0500Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: BPA

Just curious. I guess I'm just eager to apply all the facts and opinions to my developing understandingof what is to come. Having that information at my disposal is requiredfor that understanding. Besides, the rather philisophical writings of WilliamWynn are central to my corvair-powered Piet build, and he is quite passionatein his distain for the idea of 'waiting'.

That is a great site! Looking it over was inspiring, as many of those Fly Babyguys and gals choose to 'theme' their planes with WWI livery--several with fauxSpandau machine guns on the cowling. I intend something similar.Fun attitudes over there as well, and as you said, plenty of crossover information.--------Andy Garrett'General Purpose Creative Dude'Haysville, KansasRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ______Date: Fri, 13 Mar 2015 17:27:25 -0500Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Re: BPA

Andy,No, the association has not "gone dormant."There was a bit of a disruption in the publishing of the newsletter after Doc andDee Mosher handed over the reins to John Hofmann about a year ago. However,it seems that those troubles are now in the past. The latest issue of the newsletteris currently being delivered by the post office.A revamped website is in the works. Word has it that online dues payment willbe a welcome new feature.However, I'm not sure about your comment about "publications they list and sell".Doc compiled a list of useful books, but those books are available throughthe EAA, not the BPA.http://www.pietenpols.org/id1.htmlBill C.Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Re: BPA

Hey Andy You'll also want to check out Kansas City dawn patrol website. One of the originalmembers (Marvin Story) developed, an had plans for an oxy acetylene firedfaux machine gun on their site.

Thanks for the clarification Bill. I'll grab those from EAA then.Glen, I'm not planning any 'cloning' really--just a 'flavor'.I'll have what is essentially a solo cockpit due to my body weight of 255-260 (nogear). The forward cockpit will be baggage and maybe a lot of fuel (still haven'tmade my decision on a wing tank). It will have a removable hard cover withfake guns mounted to it.The engine will be a high mount Corvair with a spinner and eyebrows outside a narrowcowling. No tail changes, but colors will be German with a nod to my timewith the 101st Airborne Division.That's my daydream vision this month. It may evolve.--------Andy Garrett'General Purpose Creative Dude'Haysville, KansasRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ______Date: Fri, 13 Mar 2015 22:36:32 -0500Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Re: BPA
