Jim Markle came into town this evening and came over for a hamburger. Heexpressed interest in learning to rivet so we spent a little time rivetingone of the ailerons on the RV-10 project. He just left and I went back downto the basement to turn the lights off, and noticed my 60 gallon aircompressor is missing.Had a great visit with him and it just stoked me up all the more toanticipate Brodhead in another couple of months.Jack PhillipsNX899JP "Icarus Plummet"Smith Mountain Lake, Virginia________________________________________________________________________________Date: Tue, 17 May 2011 19:53:20 -0400 (GMT-04:00)

10,000 fewer rivets than an RV-10 would still mean that a Pietenpol wouldhave 15,000 rivets.Jack-----Original Message-----

Dan,I'm glad you asked. Monday I flew the Aeronca back to Poplar Grove, to work on the Piet for a couple of days. It has become apparent that I am not going to have enough spare time to spend here up north, in order to create and finish the battery/electronic ignition system I was working on. So I took it off and I am just going with the one crank-driven magneto. At some point in the future I will finish my work on the new system, but not now. So the plan is to show up at Brodhead this year. I am ready to test-run, but it is raining now and I'll have to wait awhile.As some of you might know, I have a model A with an 8-plug head. Can anyone see any problem with having that extra set of plugs in there not firing? I don't think it will be a problem, but I am open to hearing all views.
