July 28th. THIS DATE has not been totallyconfirmed yet but most likely will be the day. Tom Poberezny saidhe would like us there early since alot of the crowds leave towards theweekend or right after. The good part about this is that we will beable to have the Piets at Oshkosh for a day or two, then fly downThurs, Friday to the Brodhead, WI Pietenpol Fly-In and enjoy BOTHevents BACK to BACK.

I'm just 3 or 4 hoursaway from completing 2 knotty pine night stands for my wife....----- Original Message -----

Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: OshkoshI'll be flying to Oshkosh.. in a wood airplane.. but not the Piet.. not this year. I hope next year. Look for the tan, orange and white Bellanca triple tail up around Row 20 in North 40. I bet we could scare up a cold beverage or twofor your trouble. I'll bring pics of my Piet project. Oh, and I plan on hopping over to Brodhead on Saturday too. Hope to see some of you there.Matt PaxtonBellanca N8866RPiet on landing gear, getting ready for the engine mount.________________________________________________________________________________
