Neat little plane! The parasol wing must give great ground visibility. The decoration looks totally correct for it’s type! Enjoyed the dad jokes too! 👍🏻

Hey Mike! Hello from Texas! 48MC and it’s pilot are still looking great! I STILL haven’t finished mine. Health and old age have pretty much grounded me, but it’s so good to see that some things never change, and that good guys still rule the sky! Also, still the best looking Piet ever! Take good care, Gary from Spring, Texas.

SO great to hear from you, Gary!!! Sorry to hear that your health has grounded you but your ticket is good for life! You never know. Keep the faith and fly even if you don't have a medical! (I've been known to give shady advice from time to time.....please forgive me:) Really appreciate your kind words! I hope you are staying cool, friend! God bless!

While I was stationed at Dyess AFB in Abilene, TX in the early 70s I helped a guy build a Pietenpol. Instead of the C-85 engine he used a Model C Ford engine with the radiator sticking up in front of the pilot. My understanding was that the Ford engine was what was called for in the original plans. I was a crew chief on C-130 Es. We did an upgrade on all the seat belts and shoulder harnesses and I was able to get a few sets of the belts and shoulder harnesses, as they were being thrown away. I was also able to get a lot of new wiring from a modification that was done. All the pre made up wiring bundles was much longer than necessary and was thrown away. I have some Super 8MM movie film of the taxi checks and it’s first few flights. I later found out that the builder sold the aircraft when he lost his medical. It got totaled when a West Texas tornado hit the airport where it based. It was tied down outside of its hanger. It got totaled and there was no damage to the hanger.

Thanks so much for your great note, Bill and too cool that you helped your friend build that Ford-powered Piet! Neat that you have some home movies of it taxiiing and flying. Too bad the plane got totaled but glad nobody got hurt.

Now THAT is flying! In several years of flight training I got to fly some pretty hot machines, hoping to do so for a living. It didn't work out but some years later I discovered the joys of low 'n' slow flight with windows open, say 1500 feet AGL over farm country. The sight, sound, smell and wind noise was intoxicating. I'm long retired and can't afford even ultralights but I urge all pilots and would-be pilots to try small, slow, putt-putt airplanes where you can really feel what it's like to fly through the sky.

An elderly man my mom rented a property from had a small farm, a few old beautifully restored 60's corvettes, a wooden speedboat he built as a teenager, and an Air Camper. He gave me his card. He flew all the way to Croatia with it once! (He flew up along the coast of the us, then Canada, moving on to Greenland, etc. Until he got to Europe and made his way down) I thought it was the coolest thing in the world. Unfortunately he can't fly anymore due to his Parkinson's. He might sell the plane to me, so I'm excited about that. It has a model A Ford engine like the originals
