I have enjoyed reading this list's post, especially about flying thePietenpol. Several days ago I asked about spins, and spin testing and no one hasanswered. Has anyone done spin testing on their Pientenpol? My dreams of flying and experiencing the feel of the controls are weighingheavier and heavier on my mind as I am getting closer to assembling my wing.Even as I gaze across the muskeg lake laced landscape from 600 feet on aclear windless night in my Experimental Light Sport Antares, my thoughts areon flying the Pietenpol. How will it sound, will the struts and flying wiressing to me? How will the smell of the earth below mix with the fuel, wood and varnish asI lift in a thermal.Rob in Anchorage________________________________________________________________________________Date: Thu, 30 Aug 2007 08:04:30 -0400
