Subject: Pietenpol-List: Looking for someone.Pieters,Found a pic of a Piet which is exactly as I want to create. I have no ideaas to who the owner or builder may be. Would the real builder stand up andshout.Blue fuse w/ light wing, cream or yellow. Cont Engine with white valve covers and bleached straight, Aeronca style, stacks, split gear with bungee close to fuse bottom and wire spoked wheels. On the aft side of the fuse is a decal with ARC inside a circle. Will someone help me identify this plane so I may contact the owner-builder. Thank youCorky in extremely hot Louisiana**************Dell Laptops: Huge Savings on Popular Laptops =93 Deals starting at ir=http:%2F%2Faltfarm.mediaplex.com%2Fad%2Fck%2F12309%2D81939%2D1629%2D0)________________________________________________________________________________Date: Wed, 1 Jul 2009 06:37:20 -0700 (PDT)

It wasn't by chance Dick Navratil's NX2RN, was it?http://jaredyates.com/pages/brodhead08/ ... 882.JPGThe description seems similar except for the logo on the fuselage. _____

For New Englanders, Boulter also has aircraft grade mil spec ply and a basementfull of Sitka Spruce planks that you can have them grade (yes, they know thespecs for aircraft grading, I quizzed him) and you get it a little cheaper ifyou want to dig through the piles and select your own pieces. They are a smallstorefront but seem to have a lot of interconnected buildings and basementsin Somerville, MA, just outside of Boston. I have purchased both 1/8" FinnishBirch and Okume from them and they are very reasonable. ...although I willprobably buy spars from Aircraft Spruce or Wicks.--------Glenn ThomasN?????http://www.flyingwood.comRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: Looking for someone.
