https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=08C4ipsyqy8Infidels,I ran across this most outstanding video that Frank Metcalfe took of himself flying his beautiful Corvair-powered Pietenpol.Thanks Larry Vetter for posting this link to the Pietenpol Facebook page.Frank doesn't dub music over the sweet sounds of his engine, prop, and air flowing over the struts and wings which is especiallyappealing to me as to me there is no music that should take precedence over the sounds of an airplane in flight but some videoslike Gary Boothe's have a great mix of airplane engine noises and great selections of music.I don't know Frank Metcalfe but I admire him greatly and all the other guys who rebuilt their Piets after the storm at the Florida Sun-N-Funfly in a few years ago.Thank you very kindly Barry Davis for letting me know which one of your Big Piet guys is in that video and even more for sharing that Frankis one of those guys who rebuilt after SNF to fly again. Amazing. Rebuilding must be SO much more difficult than just building.>From Barry Davis below:PS this is Frank still smiling even though that is his red tail sticking up on top of the pile. See the prop though his wing? When the Sun n Fun crew moved it, they just drug the prop thru the wing instead of just picking it up and as a result, destroyed it.[cid:image003.jpg(at)01CF6EC2.403E28C0]
