Absolutely!! The more touching the better. :-)Clif After reading that post a couple weeks ago about the broken gear leg, it seems a good thing to make it a priority that the gear legs actually touch both the fuselage longerons and eachother at the bottom, so shock isn't all taken up by the bolts. $.02 Douwe________________________________________________________________________________Subject: Pietenpol-List: I Forgot to Add Proof

Ha!! You know fellers, this is indeed the best bunch of folks. I have not participatedin a discussion of differing ideas, fearing making enemies on the list, butthis bunch is a great group. Actually, I see Dick's point. I remember reading an article submitted to the BPAnewsletter in October 2006 that was written by one of the first fellers I metin person from this list, Mike Hardaway. He started describing the changes heplanned to make on the piet, and by the time he finished, it was an RV-4! Ha!So, I respect the ones that have already been there, done that, and Dick, I appreciateyour comments and can understand your frustration with all of the discussedchanges when Bernard pretty much experimented with the design for 40+ yearsand got it pretty close in 1933-34.For the record, I have lost about 15 pounds over the last year, but my bones andbasic body type ain't changing much even with another 30. Thanks for the lively discussion, and the good advice from all. I think anotherthing Dick said was true: wait to do anything else someone says until it's flownand proven. I appreciate the comparison data recently posted between the Riblett612 and the regular airfoil. That was interesting data. I am already vestedin the 613.5, and have a secret hope that it provides the extra lift I willneed in the hotter area where I live. That and the re-worked Rolls Royce MerlinI have the core for...Crud, did I just let that slip? Anyone used an old Rolls Royce 12 cylinder on oneof these before? Any idea on the tanks size and placement? [Shocked]Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: I Forgot to Add Proof
