Pieters,I am pleased to inform members of this list that Greg Bacon has purchased "MountainPiet" and will restore the plane to it's former good health.He will gently and carefully build a new left wing panel interspersed with thechores of building a new home, caring for a growing family, and maintaining agood relationship with his wife.Greg has already discovered the reason for the unplaned landing, (the connectionbetween the turbo and throttle body blew apart) and is taking steps to insurethat it will not happen again.I still consider myself as a Pietenpol enthusiast and plan to continue monitoringthe list and might enter such discussions as would be helpful."Mountain Piet" has truly found a competent loving and caring owner with Greg Bacon!John DilatushSalida, Colorado ________________________________________________________________________________
