The funny thing is, I actually have a HK Pietenpol (old sample from previous job) that I'm in the middle of converting to run on an OS 20FS, but I havn't worked on it for a while, so thanks for the inspiration, I might just pull it out again before the weekends up.

That's the plan right now. The guy I'm working with is the designer and fabricator. I'm just the " we should do this or that" guy. He downloaded plans off the net and started cutting wood and fabricating all all the rest. Why because he was bored and looking for a challenge. I've got a bunch of video form the second day of test flights and am working on combining them into one video I'll post when I remember how to do it. Since this is a home-built there's a ton of variations out there so there is no "wrong" as far as scale. I'm learning so much from Don he's one very smart creative guy.
