Note to those who didn't get to Brodhead and are curious about the "Subaru powered Piet" mentioned in several posts here. That Piet is the beautiful creation of John Dilatush, who I had the pleasure and privilege of meeting in person last summer. I got to photograph his airplane and I put the photos up on a webpage, at http://www.flysquirrel.net/piets/John_p ... l"Mountain Piet" is a beauty.Oscar ZunigaSan Antonio, TXmailto: taildrags(at)hotmail.comwebsite at http://www.flysquirrel.net________________________________________________________________________________

Oscar,Pics are great!I have a question,,,,,I'm thinking of putting dihedral into the wing of mycompleted/flying Piet. One of the drawbacks was that I had to remake themain wing struts cause they would have to be longer. I noticed in the picsof Johns plane that he added adjusting forks to the bottom of a normalstraight streamlined strut tube. Do you know if that fitting is available?I could add that to the bottom of my existing tube to get the length that Ineed.thankswalt evansNX140DL----- Original Message -----
