=0A=0A=0APieters=3BMost of you know Corky Corbett=2C the gentleman who built the Air Camper that I now own and fly. He will be turning 92 next week and in the recent past he has taken a fall or two and now gets around with a walker or in a wheelchair.A while back Corky's wife Isabelle passed away and after that he was looking for things to keep him busy so he was going to start building and selling Piet ribs. That enterprise never came to fruition so now he's looking for someone who is interested in picking up the rib building materials. Free to a good home=2C to someone who might appreciate having a no-cost start to building their ribs and who might also appreciate meeting and greeting one of the people on this list who actually "got 'er done". Corky completed a Pietenpol Air Camper and flew it... something not a lot of people can say these days. A true Southern gentleman=2C too.It's obvious that in his condition Corky is not able to handle the materials himself=2C nor is he interested in packing=2C shipping=2C or anything else. The materials are in Shreveport Louisiana and must be picked up by whoever is interested. He describes what he's got as several hundred dollars worth of materials=2C enough for perhaps 3 sets of ribs. Capstrips and ripped select fir that he says is as light as spruce and much stronger.Interested parties may call Corky at (318)455-7435. I have no other information than the above.Oscar ZunigaMedford=2C ORAir Camper NX41CC=2C "Scout"Cont A75 power =0A ________________________________________________________________________________Subject: Pietenpol-List: just another Air Camper afternoon
