Subject: RE: Pietenpol-List: Re: AS&S bought naming rights to Exhibit BuildingA at OshkoshI totally agree with Andrew regarding the wood quality from Wicks. EverythingI ordered wood-wise from Wicks was of SUPERIOR quality--- just PERFECTION asfar as sitka spruce goesand it always came packed in pine crating that was super durable and packed sothat no damage ever occured to any piece that was ever shipped to me. Cheap-- no but then wood for a Pietenpol isn't really a huge portion of your costs----overhaulingan engine, buying a prop, having your carb and mags overhauled,buying instruments and AN Hardware and covering and paint materials---there's whereyour costs are in my opinion. ________________________________________________________________________________
