Pietenpol-List: Re: Comparison test between Pietenpol airfoil and Riblett

Post by matronics »

Fellow Pietenpoler's,For some time, Don Harper and I had planned to write up the results of a "head to head" test comparing the Pietenpol airfoil to the Riblett airfoil. To the best of our knowledge, no one else has conducted the same type testing. The write up is self explanatory as to our methods. Remember, testing is ongoing and will continue. The various numbers you see now very likely will change as we do further testing. Updated results will be posted when we have something worthwhile to add..Our intend, is to share the information with the Piet community, not to start an argument. thank you,P. F. BeckDon HarperBarnwell, S. C.________________________________________________________________________________Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: Comparison test between Pietenpol airfoil and Riblettairfoi

Subject: Pietenpol-List: TRANSPONDERKEN, THE REASON I LEAVE THE CAP LOCK DOWN IS I HUNT AHD PECK TYPING MAKING IT EASIER FOR ME SOME OF US OLD(75) FOLKS NEVER TOOK TYPING OR KEYBOARD IF THAT IS POLITICALLY CORRECT.TOM, I HAD THIS KT76 FOR YEARS IN MY BEECH A-23.AN A&P BUDDY AND I WENT THROUGH MY PLANE YEARS AGO FROM A TO Z. THE KT 76 WOULD NOT TRANSMIT. I ORDERED A GARMIN 320 FOR IT.WHEN STARTED TO CONVERT WE FOUND THE ANTENNA UNPLUGED. NOT WANTING THE WIFE TO KNOW, WE INSTALLED THE NEW UNIT AND KEPT QUIET ABOUT IT.THAT IS MY REASON FOR THE KT 76.IT IS BEST SOMETIMES WHAQT GOES ON IN THE HANGER STAYS IN THE HANGER.TEDBUILDING CORVAIR POWERED WITH DAN'S 5TH BEARING________________________________________________________________________________
