Hi Kenny

Really like the blue/black/white/grey design you created.

There is a nice one up on Barnstormer right now $29k with a 0200 only 50 hours on it. I don't think you could build a new one for that price. Building looks like lot of work probably not the type of plane for a 1st time builder.

sorry, sound too poor. Can't hear anything

Comments were turned off for the Pietenpol construction video, but just wanted to say thank you for posting. I am planning to build one and could use any advice you guys might want to share in your videos of the project.

I was rather relieved when we got to the end of the film as I was worried about the old boy doing the interview. I'm aiming to build a Dakota Hawk starting this year so this was really interesting for me. Thank you.

looks awesome

A suggestion: It would be a good idea to add foam protection against the wind´s noise in your mic. -> there´s a lot of wind noise in this video.

The wood structure has three coats of epoxy varnish which is required for the Poly Fiber covering system that was used. The epoxy was sanded in between each coat. I agree with the concerns about protecting the wood so I feel the weight gain is negligible.

Thinking of building a skyranger swift II, the Dakota Hawk has the same folding wings, and simple design I want for my recreational flying, also the quick builds seem simple enough just like the skyranger, one thing that worries me is protecting the wood from humidity, did you polyurethane coat all the wooden parts? even the non-visible ones? I would guess that adds a lot of weight

Nice car, plane sounds like it’s a good performer!
