Hi Guys,I downloaded a copy of "Design and Build your own propeller" fromhttp://
www.wood-carvers.com which was a reprint from November 1987edition of EAA Experimenter, pages 16 - 19, 32. It is a very goodarticle but unfortunately the figures are not readable. Anybody have anybetter copies of figs 4, 5 and 7 or could send a photocopy of the wholearticle? I am looking to build one for a Corvair powered Pietenpol.CheersPeter.________________________________________________________________________________

I've just started building a GN 1. My original thought was to power it wita C-90 or 0-200. Both of these choices are a bit on the expensive side.After much soul searching I have decide to go with the Corvair conversion.Apart for the obvious engine mount change, what other factors do I need toconsider before making the installation. Are there mods to the fuselageetc. Looking for help.Ken Rickards.Ken RickardsCole Vision Canada Inc.80 Centurian Drive,Markham, Ontario.L3R 8C1________________________________________________________________________________Subject: RE: Pietenpol-List: Corvair conversionDate: Wed, 27 Nov 2002 07:43:34 -0600

Thanks kent, I would be interested in getting the dimensions from you.Like you I am about a year away from building the Fuse, busy building ribsand getting my workshop heated, but the more information I can get now willmake it easier when I get to that stage of the project. And yes the extraleg room will be nice, I'm 6'1".Ken-----Original Message-----
