Jim has an A65and that prop probably isn't right for him. Did I recallincorrectly about your engine? True enough that the C75 willdevelop full rated power at 2275 RPM and the A65 at 2300, butthat's a 10 HP difference at roughly the same RPM so your76x38 is probably too much prop for the 65. Or maybe you weresuggesting a switch to a Cloudcars prop as a brand, notnecessarily the same diameter/pitch?Oscar ZunigaAir Camper NX41CCnow A75 poweredSan Antonio, TXmailto: taildrags(at)hotmail.comwebsite at http://www.flysquirrel.net________________________________________________________________________________Subject: Pietenpol-List: Side by Side Air Camper

Am I reading this right? I'm still relatively new to the Piet community, but doesthis still qualify as an Air Camper?http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Pietenpo ... ------Mark - working on wingsRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... __________

The Side-by-each-Piet is based on a widened Pietenpol fuselage and was built in Florida by a retired navy man that then sold it to Mike Soucy. It is based out of Twichels airport in Turner, Maine. I saw it listed in the local Uncle Henrry's classifieds as well as Barnstormers about a month ago for 8K $. Though it is not in either at the present time. He was also selling his scratch built 701 project. So I fear Mike may have hit upon hard times and perhaps like many in rural Maine has fallen victim to the bad economy and the multiple mill shut downs taking place all over the state.Michael ----- Original Message -----
