The Pietenpol Air Camper was designed by Bernard Pietenpol in 1929. This aircraft is built to be a simple aircraft. To build this aircraft it requires basic woodworking and tools. But it also requires fabricate some metal fittings to attach wooden parts together and welding too. A 1933 Air Camper was located near Pioneer Airport that was owned by the founder and designer Bernard Pietenpol. If you want to see other Pietenpol Air Campers they are located south of Homebuilders Headquarters. Rewey had two forums about Pietenpol Aircraft; one was at 10:00 A.M.
