Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: 115% PietenpolRodger,You're absolutely right about it not really being a Peitenpol. It willlook like a Peitenpol, sort of, "Now wait just a minute, something's alittle out of whack here. I hope that this condition is reversable orI'm going to be about three feet tall by 4 o'clock this afternoon!"Yes, all material sizes, wire sizes, fittings and parts will have to bejudged specifically for the new design. It will probably take muchlonger to build, just because of the time that it will take to make surethat all stresses are accounted for. Your comment on the carry throughbetween the lower strut fittings under the fuselage is a good example.No one should try something this unless they are pretty secure in theirdesign abilities.Lauren ________________________________________________________________________________Date: Mon, 8 Nov 1999 20:19:22 -0500Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Re: Need a Pietenpol Placard

Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Re: Need a Pietenpol PlacardBert Conoly...When I didn't see any response to your request for a source on the Piet instrument panel placard I dug into my BPAN back issues and found info on the one you describe. I bought one and have it on my panel. The article is on page 3 of the 2nd quarter 1990. Perhaps others on the list would also like to have the details. Have Larry write to Brian Amato, 3871 Whispering Oaks Drive, Traverse City, Mi. 49684 (no phone # available) His price at that time was $7.50 including postage. It is quite well done and worth the price, even if he has gone up a bit. For anyone getting started on building a Piet I strongly suggest you try to get all of the back issues of the BPAN you can. The first issue was in 1983 and there have been 4 issues per month to date but it will be discontinued at the end of the year unless someone steps up to continue it. Virtually every question I have see come through from the list has been answered or at least addressed in the back issues. Contact BPAN editor Grant McLaren to see if he still has some availableDon Hicks ________________________________________________________________________________
