I just got through reading Mark Chouinard's synopsis of his Corvair College experiencesand thought I would add that CC#31 is about 5 weeks away. If you arebuilding a Corvair engine - go. If you are thinking about building a Corvair engine- go. If you are building or flying another engine type - go. Just go!You will learn a ton about engines in general, Corvairs in particular. You willmeet no finer gentleman than P.F. Beck. And you will be around close to 100people that love the idea of building their own airplane. Just a great group ofpeople. It will be the most fun weekend you have had in a long time in aviation.Here is a link if anyone wants to read more about it-http://flycorvair.net/2014/10/03/corvai ... ----Semper Fi,Terry HandAthens, GARead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ______Date: Fri, 3 Oct 2014 09:18:23 -0400Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: straight axel landing gear fittings---sketches attached
