MerrillYou have asked a couple of times about the differences between the Piet and theGN-1. You are located in Mt Dora and that puts you very close to a good friendof mine (Randy Bruce) who has plans for both and has done an in-depth analysisof the two designs. He lives in Sanford but his Piet is at mid-florida airportin one of the new hangars. If you will E-mail me directly with your phone number, I'll pass it along to himand you will be treated to the results of his comparisons. It occurs to me that you are also in the vicinity of Lou Larson who should havehis Piet almost ready to cover. If you hurry maybe you can see ituncovered and get a lot of questions answered. The other prospect might be AlanWise who hangars at Orlando Executive. He might not know much about Grega's design,though.They are all fine gentlemen who will be happy to assist you in making your decisionand provide help if you need it.Best of luck!!f"http://explorer.msn.com">http://explorer.msn.com________________________________________________________________________________

Thanks Larry,I have talked at length with Randy at his hanger and seen his 0-200, steeltube piet. Great wealth of knowledge. Lou Larsen has, (in my opinion) thebest example of a piet I have seen. (no put down to Mike C's) Lou hasthought out everything and done a fabulous job that I hope to come close to.It was a great visit with him and his plane. I just have questions rollingaround my head here at work, and wanting an answer to have a betterunderstanding about the two planes. I am building a Piet.I will stay in touch with them both. I think it was you at first who told meabout them and how to contact them over the summer. Lou is on this list ifanyone is interested in contacting him, Randy would have to be contacted byphone.If any one is interested, let me know as well.MerrillMt.
