Pietenpol-List: Markle Palooza

Post by matronics »

Original Posted By: Michael Perez
A few weeks ago, learning that Jim was going to be in the Sacramento area for a few days, Chris Tracy and I decided that it would be cheaper to entertain him for few nights, rather than be faced with the probability of throwing bail. For two nights in a row we had the pleasure of Jim=99s company, along with fellow Piet builders, Mike Weaver and John McPherson. All things considered, I don=99t think the price was too high...Allowing that Jim Markle is probably the one individual who has seen more Piets in progress than any other person, I asked him if he had ever seen a project that he had misgivings about. He didn=99t say too much, but his gaze just moved to the left to my fuselage. Now, why would he have done that......?I don=99t know if it=99s the Pietenpol that draws Good People together, or if it=99s Good People that decide to build Pietenpols. Either way, and as always, I had two great evenings with fellow builders....Gary Still in CoolWorking on wings________________________________________________________________________________Date: Sat, 28 May 2011 08:16:19 -0700 (PDT)

Wow, a whole series of inspiring photos. What is it with this weekend? I workingat on my project till nearly 2am last night/this morning... hope to do thesame tonight. Spoke to the Markler this morning and even he said that his visitwith Gary, Chris and others was so motivational that he may try to do somework on his airplane. That California trip must have been like Brodhead magicto get him motivated like that! Ha! I kid, I kid!--------Mark ChouinardWings, Center Section and Empannage framed up - Working on FuselageRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: Markle Palooza
