Thanks to all for the responses. Ken, I'll give you a call in the next day ortwo if that'd be okay. Now that the snow is starting to thaw (at least a littleanyway), we'll have to plan a visit so I can see your build. I'll also checkthe Corsa website for a local chapter. Kind of interested also in the GeorgiaCorvair engine given that if I used that nearly every part of my plane wouldhave come out of Georgia (my orders are delivered from the Peach Tree City,GA Aircraft Spruce). If I haven't any luck between now and Brodhead, I can followRyan's lead on my first trip there this July (I can hardly wait for thattrip!).Again, thanks to all.TomRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: Props and hub and progress

i bought the plans years ago... simple plane to build and fly..nice to hear the piet fly like the speciali actually think a change in the airfoil on the special would be a good idea..it has the airfoil used on the later pitts...not flat on the bottom.... and itsnot that great for the special speeds. lots of guys had to change the angleof incidence i added about 2 degrees to both wings if i remember correctly toget it to fly more leveli actually soloed in that plane... it was way easy to landi may build another some day.. and maybe with a clark Y and a VWjeff faithRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: Props and hub and progress

We considered the VW but we were flying it as an ultralight and didn't want toadd the weight. As it was, it was already heavy. It is now in the experimentalcategory since the light sport rules.
