Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Looking for a GN-1...Yes, the project is for sale. I haven't done anything to it and it has been sitting in the hanger on my farm under a tarp. I pulled the tarp off a few daysago and noticed the plywood sides on the fuselage are a little wavy and I suspect the wood went into "shock" after leaving a very, very dry desert climatein Arizona - moving to a very humid environment here in Central Texas. But once the fuselage is covered, it wouldn't be noticable. It is for sale minus the gas tank and motormount. The wing ribs, original rib jigs and much of the spare wood for the various wing parts have been in storage in an air conditioned and humidty controled office in my hanger.________________________________________________________________________________
