Jack,My Piet is still in Poplar Grove, and will be there for some time to come I think. I still need to finish re-assembling my engine, and also complete the new electrical system (gagging). I will be traveling back to PG once-a-month from our new place in TN., for about a weeks time each, in order to complete this and fly-off the remaining 27 hours in "Phase I". I expect to make it back to Brodhead this year, flying that loooooonnnggg cross-country from C77 to Brod. Not sure if I want to try for Oshkosh this year or not. Hopefully I will be flying the Piet down to TN. this fall some time.I empathise with you and Douwe when it comes to the subject of addressing major problems so soon after the initial flight. I too found it VERY distasteful to face a complete engine tear-down last fall. I have learned a whole bunch since then, but it still makes it no easier to take.Dan HelsperPuryear, TN.________________________________________________________________________________Date: Sat, 12 Mar 2011 19:03:32 -0500Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Jack Cox obit
