I have the plans, but haven't seen much other than Willies prototype photos.I think it looks cool, but underdesigned with regard to the interplanebracing, and wiring.Stevee.-----Original Message-----Greg YotzSent: Tuesday, August 18, 1998 9:29 PMSubject: Pietenpol-List: Chad Willie PlansHas anyone built a 'Pietenpol Aerial' aka the Biplane Pietenpol???

The only one of these I heard details about was in the Saint Louis area afew years ago. It was so tail heavy it scared its owners who donated it toa museum.They considered it to be a death trap.John-----Original Message-----
