Thanks Ryan,As an average, I show 76 mph. I measured my prop from ground to tip while my bird was in flight attitude and I have 8.5" of clearance.I was more interested in climb than I was in speed (the Piet is such a fast ship a few extra mph just doesn't matter) and she really climbs.If you like to hand prop with your fingers over the edge of the prop (I don't, I kinda like my fingers attached) then the Anderson prop may not be the prop for you. The prop edge is sharper than a lot of the others.GeneN502R (great flying day in Tennessee) ----- Original Message -----

Hi Tim,If you'd seen Western Tennessee yesterday, in full color, you'd never leave.The paint is Poly Fiber. The white is "Juneau White" and the green is "Everglades Green".The heat muffs are "T'ed" into each other and run to the carb. I really don't think heat into the cockpit would help much, as it's pretty windy in there.The stacks are stainless. I bought the stainless tube and fittings from AS&S.Thank you for your kind words. I'm looking forward to seeing your plane. How about some photo?GeneN502R----- Original Message -----

Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Interest in a Pietenpol gathering, OhioShad,Depending on the date and since I have no airplane to fly yet, its a drive for me, Ohio is not that far, so for the moment I am interested. I may be able to drag the camper along depending. I am certainly willing to make the trip if all the variable can come together, God willing and the creeks don't rise! You can count me in so far and keep the details coming!ThanksJohnIn a message dated 10/22/2009 9:16:37 A.M.

[quote="aviatorbell(at)yahoo.com"]Hello Group, I have been thinking of having apietenpol gathering here at my home airport, and am wondering how many interestedpeople there might be. I was thinking about next June. We have plentyof runway and parking, camping if anyone wanted to, and posibly even shower facilities(might be able to talk Bill into using his bunkhouse in his hanger).It would not be a huge event, just a local gathering of the ohio area Pietenpolguys, or anyone else that wanted to fly in. If any of you are interested letme know so I can plan accordingly. If there is enough interest I will planfurther, if not oh well. The airport Ident is OH71, and is located 1 mile s/wof the town of Centerburg Ohio. This is just a shoot from the hip idea, andone I have been wanting to do for a little while, since moving in here. It would be nice to have a gathering close enough that it would only be about 2hror less flight for most guys in the general area. It would be nice to have fun,fly home, and sleep in your own bed. Let me know if anyone is intrested. Shad "Spiderman" Bell > I doubt I'll be flying yet but would be interested. Road an old Honda 200 cc fromRemsen Ny to Broadhead last summer. You would be only 1/2 the distance.--------Jon CoxwellRecycle and preserve the planetRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... __________

I made them. I found a local outlet for mandrel bentsteel tubing elbows and U's. I forget how much butnot expensive so if you don't get it right the first timeit's not a big expense.I bought a 6" channel piece from metalsupermarket,measured and drilled bolt holes from a cardboardtemplate taken directly from the engine. I made up thefront tube assembly with a long enough tube to go asfar back as I wanted the exhaust to go with the straightpart parallel to the flange.Then I fit the rear tube to thatand it's flange. This part is really picky!Once that was fitted I marked all around that joint andcut out the straight tube to fit. Fiddled with this quitea bit too. This was spot welded then checked for fit onthe engine. Once good and back on the jig it was fullywelded. My welding is structuraly sound but not allthat pretty so I filed and ground it till it was. It appearsthat wasn't such a great idea.

It looks real nice in thepics but isn't so hot in real life. Oh well.Oh yes, make sure your horizontal piping is parallel tothe plane, not the engine if the engine is angled downat all.Clif----- Original Message -----
