Original Posted By: "Kevin Ross"
I live at an airport with an elevation of 3125' elevation and in the summer it gets very hot.What if any are the options of operating a Pietenpol in and out of a strip with high densityaltitudes. Do I turbo the c-85, or stick a bigger engine on, or change props or even move to a lower elevation (no really an option)?ThanksBruce Kirk________________________________________________________________________________

It sounds like Barber could work. Making it a Pietenpol/Corvair Fly-in might bea good idea. I'll bet we could get a showing of Ford, Corvair, and Continentalpowered ships without too much arm twisting. If we advertise we might getmore than just Buckeyes there too. With the nice weather forecast this weekI may try to fly over and see Forrest and see what he thinks and if others likethe idea, maybe you could bring it up at a chapter meeting Kip.
