Pietenpol-List: Laminating Question

Post by matronics »

Air Camper NX41CC has toe brakes exactly like the Bill Reweydetail and like several others have shown. I really like them.I used to think that I'd like heel brakes better since that's whatI cut my teeth on in my J-3 Cub training days=2C but the rudder baron the Piet makes it not so easy to deal with heel brakes. The"Bill Rewey" toe brake setup is simple=2C effective=2C and it puts thebrake masters where they are quite easy to inspect and service.My other project=2C the M-19 Flying Squirrel=2C uses Azusa mechanicaldrum brakes and even though I have not flown them yet=2C I've heard(and seen for myself) that the drums are quite thin and easy to getout of round with heavy brake application. I had mine trued up ona lathe but even so=2C they are quite lightweight and prone to distortion.I'd go with Tracy O'Brien modified Azusas (www.TracyObrien.com) onsomething the size of a Piet. They are used on KRs and work fine.Oscar ZunigaAir Camper NX41CCSan Antonio=2C TXmailto: taildrags(at)hotmail.comwebsite at http://www.flysquirrel.net________________________________________________________________________________Subject: Pietenpol-List: Laminating Question
