Subject: Pietenpol-List: Ward Aero external wind driven generator for saleI just listed an external air-driven wind generator on Ebay, item number 4510914846. I had planned on using this on an Air Camper, but as some of you know, I sold the Pietenpol a couple of months ago. These Ward Aero units aren't cheap, and the "BUY IT NOW" price is $25 less than what I paid for it last year.My plans were to mount this to the belly of the Air Camper with a quick release device, allowing to use it only when needed to keep a battery charged whentaking a long trip. I figure, why fly around with extra drag and weight when not needed, but this generator should be adequate to keep a 12 volt battery charged that is feeding juice to a modest strobe power supply, a small transponder, a handheld radio, two turtle doves and three geese a laying. OK, I lied about the turtle doves and geese a laying, but the output seems pretty good to me.This unit appears to have been made in 1998.I also listed a Trimble Flitemate handheld GPS on Ebay and an altenator for a Cherokee PA-280-140 having a Lycoming 0-320.Bid early and bid often.S.B. ________________________________________________________________________________
