The Pietenpol.

The commentary on this has been most interesting. I never knew such an aeroplane existed until 18 months ago when my friend sent me a picture of one from Osaka. Oshkosh gary you fool.
I never knew why some aeroplane engines were inverted. I guess I had never thought about it. Thanks for enlightening me Brent in uh 10-uh-c. I believe Kawagumby too is correct in saying it’s the journey that some pilots enjoy and not the destination. Two questioned the choice of Model A engine. I too would prefer to sit behind an engine manufactured by a builder whose name appears on modern aero engines.
And of course many get the pleasure from building their own aeroplane and that's commendable and understandable.
