Hello again,

Last winter I've made a thread about what Interwar period aircraft to be my first build.At first I settled for the Fly Baby but as time went on I felt the Pietenpol is more of my taste.The concept is wonderful and is simple in design.It is one of the easiest machines to build and should be my speed.It has what I look for in a simple,reliable,and its overall looks.I plan on having it mounted with a Ford engine which from what I've heard isn't too hard to find reasonably.I will see to it to get the plans for it by the end of the year.If anyone has any remarks or suggestions please feel free to post as since I haven't built anything more than a model flyer I would be glad to hear from the experts:)

Thank you!
