I watched the video link provided, it was about the BP oil spill. The main charactersin the piece were BP, the Coast Guard, and dead sea turtles, oh and ofcourse oil. So at Broadhead are dropping Oil, dead sea turtles, coast guard brass,or BP execs? just wondering which of these items to pack.Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... __________

Happy Wednesday Piet Pilots. With warm weather here now, I'm surprised to see so many messages here in this forum. All these posts must be from those with Perfect Piets and nothing else to do. I would think that all those with airplane factories would be out there busy and have no time for the computer chat. Of course there are builders in progress with legite questions to post. Some with 18 or so ribs done, some with a new set of plans and lots of questions, some with corvair concerns and some T-88 mixing dillemas, some old builders and some older builders, some material questions and some dimension questions...and some who ''...just think about this''. But most of all there are a lot of bold and adventurous experimenters. In the dusty environment of my own airplane factory I sometimes sit and stare while pondering possibilities of my own Piet progress. Having decided on an A-65 and a very nice Hegy prop (thanks OZ) and wire wheels I'm now pondering possible paints and leaning toward Dope. Its much lighter than any other. Also, last week I pondered out loud on flaperons. Of course that was merely an exercise of mental speculation, knowing full well the answer was ''Thats Ridiculous''This week I'm sitting here wondering about adverse yaw. Without having searched the archive first, does the Piet have a problem with it in general or is it not much of a concern? If yes then I would like to throw this out there; how about differential aileron bellcranks? Of course that would mean a rod from crank to aileron.
