Brodhead Pietenpol Association

Corky,There was a "real world" side-by-side comparison done recently with two virtuallyidentical Piets - one with a traditional Pietenpol airfoil, and one with aRiblett airfoil. PF Beck published the results here on the List, and also presentedthe results at Brodhead on the weekend. Essentially, the differencesin performance between the two airfoils (when used on a Pietenpol wing) are negligible.The choice is up to the builder as to which airfoil to use, but performance-wise,very little difference should be expected. Huge thanks go outto PF Beck and Don Harper for doing this research.Here are links to the results:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ht=riblett http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... iblettRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Advance, the fuselage

the side doors dont close because the doors touch the nuts of the wheels, so wehave to put a couple of wood pieces under the wheels to lift it 4 inches overthem. incredible, very very tight. it was comic see it over this little truck.--------Mario GiacummoPhotos here: http://goo.gl/wh7M4Little Blog : http://vgmk1.blogspot.comRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... __________
