GusI am building my "piet", or whatever I am allowed to call it, with a "V"strut that will attach to the traditional rear strut location on thefuselage. The airplane will also have a folding wing, ala Kitfox andmany others allowing it to be stored in a 10 foot wide shed.Malcolm Morrison-----Original Message-----

Corky,Can you forward me the names you received directly? One at a time or all inone e-mail, whatever is easiest for you.I'll work on it when I have time.I should be able to get something prettygood put together in a few days. I'll start with Jack's Excel format, getmost of the data in there, and then we can all argue about format, etc.Eventually I'll create an HTML page to post on the internet (unless someoneobjects to this).Steve RuseNorman, OK _____

Corky,I think I have something that will work here. If you have a file that you pass around you will eventually run into a situation where 2 or more people open it and whoever saves it last is the only one who will show up. There is also the problem of how to keep it somewhere so that everybody can get at it. I just make a section on my website. If you go to the site on the home page on the upper left there is a Community Links section. The top link is to the Piet Directory. I started it off with myself. There is an online form that people can use to enter as much info as they feel comfortable doing. As entries are made the information is stored in a database that fills the directory page and sorts it by last name. I think this might be the easiest way to put the directory together and keep it alive.This will take you straight into the directory...http://www.flyingwood.com/directory.aspI'll help enter info if you're interested in using it. It wasn't difficult to make and I can change it if necessary.Glenn W. ThomasStorrs, CThttp://www.flyingwood.com ----- Original Message -----
