The Piet with the Tiger Moth Tail was built by George Read. It was built as a bi-Pietwith two wings, a radiator looking front and Tiger Moth tail. After Georgesold it, it was flipped over in a field. George bought it back and removedthe lower wing. He grafted some of the lower wing onto the ends of the top wingand made the wing longer. I think 5 feet total. It sports a 0-235. George hasbuilt 11 +- airplanes with 3 of themPiets, and now is working on a bi-Breezy. We sometimes fly in to Twelve Oaks onour way to Sun n Fun and visit. George did let me fly it once and it flies verywell.Barry D.________________________________________________________________________________Date: Mon, 07 Apr 2003 23:45:15 -0700
