I might as well put my 2 cents in. When Blumberg put a picture of his plane inthe Forum I said it was a nice looking plane. He comes back with a caustic replythat he didn't put his picture in here for compliments. Since then I come tothe conclusion that if you are not in the higher anarchy you are not much welcome.I know this sounds like sour grapes,but I have talked to other peopleand they think so too. It's a bad situation when you go to The Biplan forum andthe people are a lot friendlier. I know there are a lot of good people likeTerry Hand and others who are helpful and fun to talk to.--------Building steel fuselage aircamper.Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: Piet list and BPA slowly dying?

Mr, Eagle,Perhaps I should have just said I read the story of Mr. Roe 25 years ago, and eventhough I was young and not a particularly thoughtful human, I found it verymoving, and it shaped my understanding of what a homebuilt could mean to theman who created it. I haven't read the story in 20 years, but it sticks withme, and I simply wished that some of those 21 people had read it and been movedlike I was. .-----------------------------------------------------.Sometimes I picture the world of experimental aircraft as having separated intoa broad gulf with two shores. On one extreme, you have the very upper managementof EAA, who appear to have lost their way, with people who care nothing forhomebuilts, working out corporate sponsorship arrangements for Airventure, culminatingin things like Pietenpols getting side lined so Piper can showcaseit's crappy light jet.On the opposite bank, I like to think we have Pietenpol people. Here, people, and character still matter, things are not solely judged on the thickness of the wallet. I started thinking like this after Oshkosh 2002, when after a terrible week, Grace and I drove over to Dave Minsink's and went to Cherry Grove. The story is here: http://flycorvair.net/2013/01/12/cherry ... ry-part-2/ .While the 'modern' corporate world of experimentals has drifted away, I would liketo think, that the Pietenpol side of the experimental world, with the patronsaint of homebuilding as our guide and our own set of champions, will be thekeepers of what is good about the brotherhood of homebuilding. Although theEAA published the story about Roe, with Paul and Jack Cox passed and Mary Jonesout of the day to day, I doubt a single person in the building would rememberthe Roe story. I am not mad at them for it, it isn't really their job to, butI like to think it should be ours. I am not suggesting that every old homebuiltbe venerated by everyone, just that the works that really were a supreme actof human will, like Roe's, be remembered by say one out of ten of us. Thatwould be enough..-----------------------------------------------------------.I highly suggest reading the original story. beyond the human element, it mightchange your mind about how much Pietenpol the man put in the plane. The wingswere the BHP airfoil scaled 4/5ths, the fuselage layout and the tail identical,etc.,,,,,,,,,,,When you come right down to it, Only a plane built by the manhimself, like the last original, it really and truly a "Pietenpol" every otherone is an replica, some very close, others not so much, but in each case wherethe builder like Roe was truly inspired buy the work of BHP, I don't reallycare what they call it. -ww.Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Re: Piet list and BPA slowly dying?
