Pietenpol-List: 1st passenger,2nd time, lots of ice

Took my first time passenger up again this afternoon. Although very hazey andabout 41f, had a nice ride. Seemed to have the carb heat on more than off, ohwell, it was fun.Also second time using the intercom. Seemed once the mic was opened, her mic sentthe open exhaust noises straight to my ears. I know this has been a problemdiscussed many times before, so I'll have to go to the archives to see theinput.As much as I was disappointed with the Piet in bumpy air, which was discussed onthis group earlier, I was surprised at how a second person in the front seemsto settle it right down.Ain't life grand!! Yes it is.walt evansNX140DL________________________________________________________________________________

Walt,You have just discovered the second thrill of the Piet. After glowing withpride of workmanship it gives you a life time of rewards from smilingpassengers. I spend Saturday from 10 AM to 4 PM giving Young Eagle ridesnon-stop. Took 5 minutes to choke down a sausage under the wing for lunchand it was back in the air.Reminded me of giving rides at Brodhead. I went home and put in an extrahour on my new Piet.Cheers,Ted----- Original Message -----
