Pietenpol-List: Wing Rib "Low Spot"?
Original Posted By: RAMPEYBOY(at)aol.com
Hi,I'm working on my wing rib jig and I'm plotting the dimensions per the Hoopmandrawing #5 dated 3/3/34. I've heard about the illusive low spot but not exactlysure I know where it is or what's the fix. Comparing the plan drawing to pg.16 of the 1932 Flying and Glider Manual I found where Mr. Pietenpol correcteda dimension by 1/8". (6" corrected to 6 1/8"). (Pg. 16, far right column, secondparagraph from the bottom). Is the fix to add 1/8" to the dimension inquestion or am I going down the wrong track?Thanks,MattRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... __________

Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Wing Rib "Low Spot"?Matt, I'm just a lurker here, but I remember reading about this too, and if memory serves, I think all you have to do is plot the profile out and "connect the dots", and it will be clear enough for the naked eye to see. Hope this helps...Boyce(http://food.aol.com/top-rated-recipes?N ... 0000000004)________________________________________________________________________________Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: Model A engine
