Subject: Pietenpol-List: ah goodie !okay---now you guys are COOKING ! You ARE alive out there !Good to hear from lots of you guys and those yet to respond. I'm sorry the newlywed Jackwon't be there but he showed up in grand style last year in his pretty green and cream Icarus Phillips, er Plummet.I got beat up so bad in turbulence and nasty crosswind 93 F landings last year that I'm driving up in nice a/c inmy car if I can. Will try to camp with John H. from the list and harass whoever I can on foot Saturday late afternoon andSat. eve. I hope Don E. from this area can fly his Piet up. He's really been at it for a long, long time and asyou all can see from his pics and posts---nice job.Maybe this year I'll remember that you have to buy your Saturday night pork chop dinner tickets AHEAD of timeat Brodhead. Chuckie G. and I almost got shutout from the eats last year since we were oblivious to the numerousannouncements about getting your tickets earlier in the day.And that Jim Markle from Oklahoma now is going to take some getting used to. It was always Jim Markle from Texas.The guy is a Clark Gable look-alike, I swear.Mike C.________________________________________________________________________________

Wow !! Talk about a sissy boy !! Waddya mean, turbulence...that's what seat belt harnesses are for...so ya don't get bounced outa the plane !! It just ain't fair that your driving up in a/c !! Yes, of course I'll be there. I'll have a handful of my DVD video's with me, and maybe even some of the 'Building NX770CG' video. This is the fourth summer in a row to Brodhead for me. I'm probably going to arrive on Thursday,and from Brodhead (Saturday or Sunday) I'm heading west to South Dakota to the Badlands, Mount Rushmore, Chief Crazy Horse, Sturges and Wall Drug. I'm trying to persuade Sterling B. to accompany me on this leg, in his spam can. I'm going to try something new this year for my passengers. I now have a working intercom, and I'm going to install the controls in the front pit. This will give folks some hands on experience with how she handles. Anyone wanna give 'er a try ??? Ya just gotta promise you won't kill me...Chuck GantzerWichita, KSNX770CGhttp://nx770cg.com/________________________________________________________________________________
