Hi Guys,Thanks for the info. I have both E. Alvin Schubert's book and EricClutton's book. I have uploaded a spreadsheet file tohttp://www.mykitplane.com based on the calculations in Eric's book (seePeter Johnson in my file folder). Seems 64 x 36 is about right. Based on3100 rpm at 100mph with an 85HP motor. I was rather hoping some of theowners of flying Piet's may have said what they were using. Practicalexamples are always better than theoretical calculations.CheersPeter.________________________________________________________________________________
