Hi Russel, rescorcinol adhesives are much more heat tolerant than epoxy and could be used in the firewall area, however the engine mounts bolt through the fuse longerons and I think if the heat were sufficiently high and for long enough to seriously weaken the epoxy bond you would find the cockpit untenable.regards Mike T. ----- Original Message -----

Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Off topic, but interestingYes, this Wiki article says that the second prototype spin in inverted. Pilot gotout. It also had some other problems IE Engine Vibration and performance notup to expectations.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell_XP-77With lowered performance expectations and using a lower HP engine It would be doable.Blue Skies, Steve ----- Original Message -----

I dug up another old picture. It is one I made in the darkroom about 1970. Thisis the SR-9C. I flew it a bunch to fly-ins for him. I remember 15 gallons/hrand 125 MPH. Kinda like a Piet on roids!--------Jerry Dotson59 Daniel Johnson RdBaker, FL 32531Started building NX510JD July, 2009Ribs all doneusing Lycoming O-235Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ttachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/stin ... __________
