I'm sure it has been covered somewhere as extensive as this list is, but I havebeen unsuccessful finding thread if it exists, so I'll break down and ask...I was wondering how to locate other builders as well as finished Piets- I knowthe member pages sometimes show location if you opt to show it, but I'm sure thereare many that don't show up. I missed a Piet that was being built just afew miles from my house. By the time I found out, it was long gone. ARRGHHH!!!I would really like to visit fellow builders within driving distance to look attheir project as I build mine.Thanks!JonIronton MO (100mi south of St. Louis)--------Jon JonesIronton, MORead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: builders map/location

I have my fuselage mostly built sitting on the split axletype gear with Die spring suspension. at the present I am running controlcables to the rear control surfaces and building my break pedals for my smallgo cart type brakes. I have a few,(about 10, wing ribs made, nothing on thewings or center section built yet. My phone is 870 926-7165... I am attempting to use a Jeep 134 flathead engine which willbe similar to a Ford A...

Wow, that's pretty cool! I'll pass it along to him. Dan, thanks for getting the kids involved like you did. I'm always pretty nervousabout pushing too hard, so it REALLY helps when someone else comes along andsteps in like that. For what it's worth, the goal here wasn't to praise my kid, but to show as manyfolks as possible that this CAN happen. Ole Scott and I don't see eye to eyeon plenty, we've got a number of years of not much communication. He practicallyNEVER spent time in the shop with me as a kid...I just planted the seed and WAITED! And waited, and waited and waited. Then oneday, it just happened. We've had the best (and it was never BAD, just sortof normal for a dad and son with NEARLY the same interests...) relationship since.It has been fantastic to share this with him. I always encouraged, but never pushed. ALWAYS exposed him to other aviation orientedfolks and like Dan they nearly always would share as well. I guess the point is, it's never too late. And you never know it's NOT going tohappen. Nonetheless I am lucky!

Wow, thanks everyone for the replies, and offers to view projects or rides in flyingPiets! I am still super impressed with how great this group is...I wason here quite a bit years ago, and was amazed at the caliber of people here. Inten years, many familiar names are still here-but there are a lot of new onestoo. If anything, the group has gotten better! Anyway, back then I decided Iwould never be able to build, get my license and raise a family all at once,so I bought a powered parachute and have been flying it ever since....but theurge to build a Pietenpol just won't go away! I have a really nice wood shop,and still have my 3 Corvair engines I acquired all those years ago for my project.When I realized 10 years had passed, I thought of how far I could have beenby now. I decided no matter how little progress I might make- I will NEVERget done if I don't start!

The GMC motorhome community has what's called the "Black List". A gent with thesurname Black started it. GMC motorhomes have a few kinks unique to their design,and all owners know them and how to deal with them. So, the list was designedto help owners, where ever they were in the country. I've been calledseveral times to help a passerby and it works great. The list contained not only location, but capability. Like whether you had andwere willing to loan front hub tools, can sponsor a motorhome with or withouthookup, etc.We would probably want to know if hangar space is avail. Recovery capabilities.Of course, project/plane ownership and status. Not only good for buildersneeding info/help, but cross country travelers. I think the trick is a simple thing like a yahoo group or something. An online,free repository. Membership is easily controlled within limits. So the listwon't be available to spammers with any effort at all. Isn't like the membershipwill be so large that it's important.

All,I decided I wanted to make myself a utility to not only do W&B but also all the"what if" games such as no fuel, full fuel, watch the effect of fuel burn offwith and without passengers - etc etc and to see the effects on CG. I also thought it was cool how the Wynn/Mueller articles calculated min and maxpilot weights from EWCG.So I built myself a windows application to do all this. The "slider" bars makeit very easy and very intuitive to play "what if" scenarios - harder to do ina spreadsheet typing in numbers one at a time.Beside the screen shot, I attached a user guide - it will give you the feel forthe apps capability.
