Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: True Blue PietenpolJonathon,As everyone knows, the only way any airplane can genuinely attain the prestigious title "Pietenpol Air Camper" is to fastidiously follow the 1932 Flyingand Glider Manual. No variations or modifications are allowed. All others arefakes, alterations and copies. I myself, have chosen to unswervingly follow these plans. Except for a few minor areas (for safety sake) and a few other minor areas (just a small tweek of design to put my own flair on it) and a fewother minor areas (just to modernize it a bit).

Well I have made a belcrank for my GN-1 according to plans dimension-but seemsto be a little short in travel.I will need to get the length of the cables setbetter but right now I have what appears to be about 30 degrees of up and onlyabout 10 down if that.I am wondering how much difference is needed to safelyfly if the plane is in the G range.I expect more up than down but not sure howmuch.RaymondRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p 0654#200654________________________________________________________________________________Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: True Blue Pietenpol
