Don C Scratch Built Grumman F9F Panther Build 23-Jul-17 13:23 Views : 400 LASTWOODSMAN Dumas Kit #1803, Pietenpol Air Camper Parked 22-Jul-17 15:15 Views : 351 CLOSEUP snipped from the below pic - only one good shot this am - two flights, then I tried winding over 40 turns into two strands of 1/8" rubber, each strand 6" long - very old three year old rubber - broke the rubber, this time in a big twisted knot in the back of the fuse - easy tissue repair - but cutting out that knot of that "angry diamond back rattlesnake" knot, that is always snapping and striking at you, and trying to cause more damage, is another story ... Now I am all outof rubber - I hope that big order from Volare gets here soon ... LASTWOODSMAN Dumas Kit #1803, Pietenpol Air Camper Parked 22-Jul-17 15:11 Views : 376 Two more pics fram this AM and that is it . HIGH IN THE OVERCAST SKY Hangar Aircraft Category Date Preview LASTWOODSMAN Dumas Kit #1803, Pietenpol Air Camper Parked 21-Jul-17 20:24 Views : 357 Went back out at 8:30 PM - Best shot of the day and best shot ever - only had one flight as I broke the rubber winding for the second flight ... LASTWOODSMAN Dumas Kit #1803, Pietenpol Air Camper Parked 21-Jul-17 13:24 Views : 367 The little "Gypsy" Air Camper was really "camping" up there in slow flight against the wind, and running its rubber out right to the very end! I'm starting to feel like the early flight pioneers, discovering the nuances of the physics of aerodynamics ... LASTWOODSMAN Dumas Kit #1803, Pietenpol Air Camper Parked 21-Jul-17 13:21 Views : 327 I had several perfect flights, then I cut another small balsa shim, and added it to the other one (just stuck it in behind the top of the nose plug - the rubber pressure held it in place), in effect DOUBLING UP the DOWNTHRUST, and wound in 900 turns! Got the BEST flight yet !!! 46 seconds of flight going VERY high and turning !! LASTWOODSMAN Dumas Kit #1803, Pietenpol Air Camper Parked 21-Jul-17 13:14 Views : 347 Bad windy weather was forecast for the next several days, so I went out again this morning at 11:00 AM, wind 11 mph gusting to 17 mph, 74 % humidity, 77 deg F feels like 91 deg F - but NO saggy wet tissue ... LASTWOODSMAN Dumas Kit #1803, Pietenpol Air Camper Parked 21-Jul-17 13:11 Views : 324 18" AIR CAMPER - I went flying last night in the dark at 9:30 PM (they were playing Cricket all day), with NO wind, 79% humidity, 79 deg F feelslike 97 deg F. Only flew once - a perfect circlling left flight of 26 seconds on 600 winds and with soggy saggy tissue. LASTWOODSMAN Dumas Kit #1803, Pietenpol Air Camper Parked 20-Jul-17 12:52 Views : 341 And my little plane was happy too - quite the valiant flights by that little Gypsy girl!! She really gave her all in that wind ! - reminds me of my exes. I think I will now call her "Nancy", or "Sandy", or both ... depending on the mood swing of the plane at the time... LOL Oh, how I miss the touch of a woman ... a little bit of female affection would really cap off a great day of flying !! But I digress ...
