The videos look great! Thanks for uploading them. great motivation.Speaking of videos, did anyone video the Saturday discussions? I think that itwas Jeff Boatright who uploaded them to Youtube from Brodhead 2010. I was justwondering if it was going to happen for Brodhead 2011. If you (whoever it maybe) are working on it, and just have not uploaded them to Youtube, thanks inadvance from those of us who were unable to attend.--------Semper Fi,Terry HandRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Thrust

That would have been an interesting project, Raymond, but never happened.The scales are now firmly in my possession (even if temporary), and I amawaiting an appropriate time to run my flying contraption outside and do afull throttle run-up (wife needs to be gone!). I don't know much about propthrust, and what it means in a test like this, but I am looking forsomewhere between 250-290 lbs.Gary-----Original Message-----

Gary, Although it would be a pleasure to meet your bride when I visit, ifshe's not there and you haven't done a full-throttle run-up, I'd be glad toassist. Your neighbors will complain about the noise but they'll get over it.CurtRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... __________

Well, Jim, I=99m no expert, but I am told that Police Chiefs come at a higher pricepossibly more than a Piet builder could afford. Maybe even more than an RV builder could afford. However, he would never make it to Chief without developing a taste for scotch or whiskey. A case of JD would do if he were a whisky drinker, but if he=99s a scotch man, 1 bottle of =98Oban=99 Single Malt Scotch would suffice. Jack Phillips will attest to that. Now you know what goes on at =98The Cove.=99Here=99s the good news, though.I=99m only doing a full throttle run-up to test the pitch on my home made prop. You should suffice with just a partial run-upGary
