I forgot to mention in mybrief account that all the fun, enjoyment, education and relaxation thatis present at Brodhead is due to some really fine folks volunteeringtheir time and effort. When you can stroll into the dining hangar andsee a smiling, fresh faced crew setting up for breakfast at 5:00 am, youknow you are being pampered and well taken care of. I may not knowtheir names or faces, but I would never call them strangers. I don't want it to dwindle away as it seems the> news letter is doing. I wouldn't give up on the future of the newsletter just yet. :)________________________________________________________________________________

I'm sorry I should have introduced myself before inflicting myopinion/comments on the group. my name as you can see is Ted. Heres thebest part, I live 38 air miles northeast of Brodhead. I'm lucky enoughto fly off the same 2400 foot turf strip that Lowell Frank calls home.My Piet is still just odd parts scattered on my bench. I've had theprivilege of riding in a lot of Piets and GN-1's even a little frontseat stick in Howard Henderson's 444. But alas for now at least I'm forced to flyone of those beer cans with a nose wheel. My wife likes to just get inand close the door like a car. She just doesn't understand. Brodhead wasgreat this year. A lot of fresh new faces. The folks that run it reallybend over backwards to do a good job. Since I'm so close I need to getinvolved in the process. I don't want it to dwindle away as it seems thenews letter is doing. The Pietenpol family came out in force which isgreat to see .B.H.P. would be proud to see his family and his planes on the samefield. Time to stop talking and start listening. Ted.

Real quick Ted, would you tell where Brodhead is and what is it? My dad,subscriber to the list, probably knows but I'd like to hear it "from thehorse's mouth" so to speak. So if you wouldn't mind and it's no trouble,please describe for me the geographic location of the turf strip youmentioned and what goes on there that is significant to the world of privateand sport aviation enthusiasts??Joel-----Original Message-----Theodore TrevorrowSent: Monday, August 02, 1999 8:38 PMSubject: Pietenpol-List: Sorry.
