While I plan to build the Riblett 613.5, it ishelpful to know that at least I am not going backwards in performance.I hope the arrows in your back didn't leave scars. There are several of us verygrateful for the posts!MarkRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Question please!..Hor stab mounting surface.

Im building the lengthened 1966 fuselage and note the distance between the tailpost and where the back of the turtle deck finishes is 18 7/8 inches. On thestandard fuselage its 18 inches. When I measure the width of the horizontal stabiliserits 18 inches so why have they listed 18 7/8 inches on the lengthenedfuselage?Is it an error or am I not seeing something?Scotty--------Tamworth, AustraliaBuilding a Corvair Powered Pietenpol Air Camperwww.scottyspietenpol.comTail and Ribs built...Building control system and about to start fuselage...Corvairengine at Roy's Garage waiting to be modified.Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... __________

ScottyIts not a critical measurement so don't stress out too much. The extra 7/8inch gives you room for the horizontal stabilizer and if you don't like thegap fill it in later with a bit of spruce.ChrisSacramento, CaWestcoastpiet.com-----Original Message-----
