I'll mention Bill Rewey's packet of details and ideasonce again. Among the details that Bill's packetincludes is a metal bracket that he uses for his GPSand another for his handheld. Worth taking a look at.Maybe there is a picture of it among the pix of Bill'sairplane at westcoastpiet.com or maybe somebody tooka pic inside Bill's airplane.Oscar ZunigaAir Camper NX41CC- A75 with Culver propSan Antonio, TXmailto: taildrags(at)hotmail.comwebsite at http://www.flysquirrel.net________________________________________________________________________________Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: Bear with me, new to the list & first time posting

Pieti, I did not get a chance to see the entire events transpire as we were watching thelead plane ahead of you fight the same gusts of wind. We thought he was goingto loop and were concentration on him. But like I said earlier, my fellow volunteersand I were glad to see that you were out and ok. Last year I got my tail dragger endorsement and know enough to almost keep me outof trouble and yet still be dangerous, and I would consider myself lucky tohave even a of the hours you have, but for those two days I thought that manyof the tail dragger's would have preferred 27 to stay a bit more into the wind?Im remembering that the wind was almost due west. Even the spam can mass arrivalswere fighting it pretty hard. Just wanted to know what you thought. Also, would you have any suggestions for a potential new builder with next to noexperience in building aircraft? I saw mikes post and watching the replies.Also, Im reading Tonys books, went to the fabric forms at Oshkosh, and plan togo to more next year as well. I probably buy the plans from Pietenpol family,the whole set with longer fuselage, gear, builders notes, etc. I will try tofind the EAA video on wood aircraft. Other than that, I dont know really wereto actually start? Will it become clearer after looking at the plans? I wouldlike to start building some wing ribs or start on something, but I am on a projectin southern Indiana right now and am significantly limited. I'm glad to hear you are still flying as I am taunted by crop dusters on a dailybases and want to do something airplane related!

Hey Matt,No need to rent TGWP. Give me a call and you can borrow mine. Your wife is ajewel to let you watch that! And yeah there are a lot of memorable quotes inthat movie.......and everyone on this forum knows it! In case it is an extendedlabor (this is the voice of experience here), might I suggest High Road toChina with Tom Selleck and 2 very ratty looking Stampe biplanes. Heaven knows,you don't want to run out of things to watch. Good luck.PaulP.S. I know I'll get flamed for this, but I always thought that High Road to Chinawas the better of the two movies.Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ______Date: Tue, 11 Aug 2009 16:46:47 -0500Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: carburetor

Gardiner,You heard some decent things about Aero Carb, but you may wish to contactBrandon Tucker, btucke73(at)yahoo.com. I don't think he is such a great fan,and in fact I think he replaced his Aero Carp with something else. Brandonflies a 601HDS that I think he put up for sale before his latest deploymentto Iraq or Afghanistan. I would be surprised, though, if he does not stillanswer to the above email. Good luck...Gary BootheCool, Ca.PietenpolWW Corvair ConversionTail done, Fuselage on gear(13 ribs down.)-----Original Message-----
