Subject: Pietenpol-List: Taildragger time at BrodheadHi all,I wanted to clarify my offer of taildragger time at Brodhead (available to Pietenpol builders). My airplane is an Aeronca 15AC Sedan, which is a four place with the control wheels in the front. Some have thought this would be "stick" time. It will still be valuable taildragger time I think, even thoughit won't be behind a stick. Just want you all to know. Looking forward to it.

I know this isn't directly Piet related, but I'm sure many of you wouldagree that anyone who flies from there is at some significant level "one ofus" whether they actually have a Piet or not. I admired the wild littlenew-build Dormoy Bathtub sporting an original Heath engine that was therelast year... so it was really heartbreaking to find this report in the FAApreliminary incident data. Condolences to the pilot's family and what I'msure is many, many friends.********************************************************************************IDENTIFICATION Regis#: 538 Make/Model: EXP Description: EXP BATHTUB 2007 Date: 05/05/2008 Time: 2203 Event Type: Accident Highest Injury: Fatal Mid Air: N Missing: N Damage: DestroyedLOCATION City: BRODHEAD State: WI Country: USDESCRIPTION AIRCRAFT CRASHED UNDER UNKNOWN CIRCUMSTANCES INTO A FIELD, THE ONE PERSON ON BOARD WAS FATALLY INJURED, NEAR BRODHEAD, WIINJURY DATA Total Fatal: 1 # Crew: 1 Fat: 1 Ser: 0 Min: 0 Unk: # Pass: 0 Fat: 0 Ser: 0 Min: 0 Unk: # Grnd: Fat: 0 Ser: 0 Min: 0 Unk:WEATHER: JVL2245Z 80010KT 10SM SCT110 23/00 A2995OTHER DATA Activity: Unknown Phase: Unknown Operation: OTHER FAA FSDO: MILWAUKEE, WI (GL13) Entry date: 05/06/2008********************************************************************************-MikeMike WhaleyMerlinFAC(at)cfl.rr.com________________________________________________________________________________Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: Taildragger time at Brodhead

Dan,If you don't mind lugging a not-yet-pilot Pietenpol builder around, I won't evenmention that your plane has a wheel instead of a stick. I'd love to get a ridein a classic plane like yours.Bill C.Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ______Date: Wed, 07 May 2008 22:26:56 -0500

I'd love to take you upon it if you don't get too swamped.Tom B._____________________________________________________________Click to go wireless with your computer, ultra fast speed.http://thirdpartyoffers.netzero.net/TGL ... ______Date: Wed, 07 May 2008 23:04:41 -0500
