In my hometown (Bozeman, Montana) they have a Pietenpol at the Museum of the Rockies - and also a 1929 Tudor. There is plenty of other interesting stuff to see from Dinosaurs, to Native American artifacts and turn of the century antiques etc. I'll share below some pietenpol photos I took on my last visit there to see family.

It would have been fun and interesting to fly a Pietenpol! I have my fixed wing flight instructor licenses (instrument and multiengine) but the oldest thing I've ever flown was a 1947 Aeronca Champ we called "patches." I can only imagine flying with that radiator obstructing your forward view! I'm flying 737s currently and haven't flown anything single engine in almost 17 years.
