Dan that is a work of art. She's a beaut. I like the assist step for the rear pit.I've got to do that too. I'm 64 and pretty arthritic in the hips. I can'tget in without something. I sure hope you get to fly to Brodhead.--------Jerry Dotson59 Daniel Johnson RdBaker, FL 32531Started building NX510JD July, 2009Ribs and tailfeathers doneusing Lycoming O-235Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Wing on!!

Hey everyone, I just can't contain my secret anymore - Dan's secret paint scheme is.... yellow and black!Aw, shucks, he beat me to it. And I didn't make a dime from blackmail or selling state secrets.;-)Beautiful work, Dan. You should be proud.

The big wheels and straight axle really give it that Classic look. Makes one thinkthe airplane was built in the '30's and recently restored. Really beautifulDan. Good luck with the taxi testing on Monday. I hope the one I build looksthat good.--------Long flights, smooth air, and soft landings,GliderMike, aka Mike GlasgowRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: Wing on!!

Pietenpol-List: Re: First flight this morning in newly purchased GN-1

Post by matronics »

Original Posted By: "ALAN LYSCARS"
HI guys, spent all weekend working on the new purchase. Getting it ready for theannual condition inspection. As Ryan M. says, there are pics on Westcoastpiet.comshowing what N30PP looks like - it still looks the same. It was flown up from Florida to Iowa last October (14+ hour flight), parked ina dirt floor hanger, and never touched afterwards. It was seriously filthy withabout 10 lbs of dead bugs and dirt on it. After cleanup (6 hours later) in myhanger, it's looking much better. It has a couple of things that need to betake care of (new tire, a fuel line and maybe bungee's), but outside of that,will fly as is till winter when I can address some cosmetic issues.I do intend to get it to Broadhead, but I don't know if it will be this year. Itwill make it to Blakesburg though. Last year my brother and I drove up to Broadheadfor the very first visit, met a bunch of you (Mike C, Greg Cardinal, andsome others I can't remember). I'd volunteered to haul equipment in my enclosedtrailer, but it was not needed. It was a great first visit and will be repeated!This flight was also the first time ever that I flew a plane that belonged to me,and that I didn't have to write a check to the FBO for $100+ after an hourof relaxation.Cheers!Lorin Miller--------Lorin MillerWaiex N81YXGN-1 N30PPRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... __________
