Subject: Pietenpol-List: Mike Cushway-- Sport Aviation Article in Sept. Sport AviationMike Cushway has been a long-time Pietenpol enthusiast and was at Brodhead--goodto see you again Mikeand glad that you're back into Pietenpol building. Mike has built, among other things-- wooded floats (gorgeously stunning) for aPietenpol, a gorgeous woodcanoe, and if not mistaken had the Sky Scout for a while that Earl Myers (in Ohio)started to build but thenlater sold it to Dennis Hall of Brodhead who eventually finished with some helpfrom Ted Davis I believe. That's the black and red-trimmed Ford Scout you see at Brodhead once in a while.Note the original builder'sNX number.....EM for Earl Myers. (who got out of airplanes totally many yearsago and is now into model trains) But as usual...I digress. Andrew King is a whiz at soldered cable joints as well as Frank Pavliga. If youlooked at Frank's Lambert-poweredSky Gypsy at Bhead it now features solder-wrapped cables. Mike C. ________________________________________________________________________________
