        No problems. Still the same "G" rating. However, due to the age of the 
      jets, most of us here have lowered them to 6/3. With the viper I can do 
      loops without diving to acclerate.

                Hi, Bill
                Do you have any problems with viper and aerobatic ? Is the 
      L-29 still +8 -4 with viper ?
               
               
                Eaxctly. I know of no one that has rebalanced. At the 
      supersonic speeds that the L-29 flies at, it doesn't seem to be an 
      issue. Actually most of the reskinned rudders were just reinstalled and 
      life is good. My is reskinned and I cruise at 325 kts. (I love my 
      Viper!) No problems.

I have a related question: If one operates the hydraulic release (Left console) where does the released hydraulic fluid go to? Also, when checking level of hydraulic fluid, do you guys release the pressure first somehow? Otherwise one need to put a towel over the cap when releasing or you become showered with fluid!

I had the same problem with mine. Found the Speed sensor had a bad wire that would ground and activate the speed brakes. Fixed the wiring, problem solved. I also agree with Greg, if the reservoir is not dead full, you can loose hydraulic functionality. -----Original Message----- From: owner-l29-list-server(at)matronics.com [mailto:owner-l29-list-server(at)matronics.com] On Behalf Of colyergreg(at)aol.com Sent: Monday, October 26, 2009 10:44 AM Subject: Re: SV: [Spam] Re: SV: L29-List: LSD eftersyn I don't know that one but I've known 3 '29s that had the same problem and in all three it was the pump Sent from my iPhone On Oct 26, 2009, at 7:55 AM, "Lasse Rungholm" wrote: > But how come the speed brakes come out if the pressure goes down?

Subject: PLEASE READ - Matronics Email List Fund Raiser During November!
Dear Listers, Each November I hold a PBS-like fund raiser to support the continued operation and upgrade of the List services at Matronics. It's solely through the Contributions of List members that these Matronics Lists are possible. There is NO advertising to support the Lists. You might have noticed the conspicuous lack of flashing banners and annoying pop-ups on the Matronics Email List email messages and web site pages such as the Matronics List Forums ( http://forums.matronics.com ), the List Wiki ( http://wiki.matronics.com), or other related pages such as the List Search Engine ( http://www.matronics.com/search ), the List Browser ( http://www.matronics.com/listbrowse ), etc. This is because I believe in a List experience that is completely about the sport we all enjoy - namely Airplanes and not about annoying advertisements. During the month of November I will be sending out List messages every couple of days reminding everyone that the Fund Raiser is underway. I ask for your patience and understanding during the Fund Raiser and throughout these regular messages. The Fund Raiser is only financial support mechanism I have to pay all of the bills associated with running these lists. Your personal Contribution counts! Once again, this year I've got a terrific line up of free gifts to go along with the various Contribution levels. Most all of these gifts have been provided by some of the vary members and vendors that you'll find on Matronics Lists and have been either donated or provided at substantially discounted rates. This year, these generous people include Bob Nuckolls of the AeroElectric Connection (http://www.aeroelectric.com/), Andy Gold of the Builder's Bookstore (http://www.buildersbooks.com/), and Jon Croke of HomebuiltHELP (http://www.homebuilthelp.com/). These are extremely generous guys and I encourage you to visit their respective web sites. Each one offers a unique and very useful aviation-related product line. I would like publicly to thank Bob, Andy, and Jon for their generous support of the Lists again this year!! You can make your List Contribution using any one of three secure methods this year including using a credit card, PayPal, or by personal check. All three methods afford you the opportunity to select one of this year's free gifts with a qualifying Contribution amount!! To make your Contribution, please visit the secure site below: http://www.matronics.com/contribution I would like to thank everyone in advance for their generous financial AND moral support over the years!

Subject: November List Fund Raiser
A couple of years ago I implemented an automatic "squelch button" of sorts for the Fund Raiser messages. Here's how it works... As soon as a List member makes a Contribution through the Matronics Fund Raiser web site, he or she will instantly cease to receive these Fund Raiser messages for the rest of the month! Its just that simple. Don't you wish PBS worked that way! :-) I really do appreciate each and every one of your individual Contributions to support the Lists. It is your support that enables me to upgrade the hardware and software that are required to run a List Site such as this one. It also goes to pay for the commercial-grade Internet connection and to pay the huge electric bill to keep the computer gear running and the air conditioner powered on. I run all of the Matronics Email List and Forums sites here locally which allows me to control and monitor every aspect of the system for the utmost in reliably and performance. Your personal Contribution matters because, when combined with other Listers such as yourself, it pays the bills to keep this site up and running. I accept exactly ZERO advertising dollars for the Matronics Lists sites. I can't stand the pop-up ads and all other commercials that are so prevalent on the Internet these days and I particularly don't want to have it on my Email List sites. If you appreciate the ad-free, grass-roots, down-home feel of the Matronics Email Lists, please make a Contribution to keep it that way!! http://www.matronics.com/contribution Thank you! Matt Dralle Matronics Email List Administrator [Note that there are certain circumstances where you might still see a Contribution related message. For example, if someone replies to one of the messages, when using the List Browse feature, or when accessing List message via the Forum. The system keys on the given email address and since most of these are anonymous public access methods, there is no simple way to filter them.] ________________________________________________________________________________

Subject: Contributions Down By 21%...
Dear Listers, As of today, contributions to the Matronics List Fund Raiser are lagging behind last year at this time by 21%. I have a fund raiser each year simply to cover my operating costs for the Lists. I *do not* accept any advertising income to support the Lists and rely solely on the contributions of members to keep the expenses paid. I run all of my own servers and they are housed here locally, and the Internet connection is a commercial-grade, T1 connection with public address space. I also maintain a full backup system that does nightly backups of all List-related data so that in the event of a server crash or worse, all of the Lists and the many years of List archive data could be restored onto a new server in a matter of hours. All of this costs a fair amount of money, not to mention a significant amount of my personal time as well. I have a Fund Raiser each year to cover these costs and I ask that members that feel they receive a benefit from my investments, make a modest contribution each year to support the continued operation and upgrade of these services. If you enjoy the Lists, please make a contribution today. I also offer some incentive gifts for larger contribution levels. At the Contribution Web Wite, you can use a credit card, Paypal, or personal check to show your support for the continuation of these services: http://www.matronics.com/contribution Thank you for your support!

Subject: What's My Contribution Used For?
Dear Listers, Some have asked, "What's my Contribution used for?" and that's a good question. Here are just a few examples of what your direct List support enables. It provides for the very expensive, commercial-grade T1 Internet connection used on the List insuring maximum performance and minimal contention when accessing List services. It pays for the regular system hardware and software upgrades enabling the highest performance possible for services such as the Archive Search Engine, List Browser, and Forums. It pays for narly 20 years (yeah, I really said *20* years) worth of online archive data available for instant random search and access. And, it offsets the many hours spent writing, developing, and maintaining the custom applications that power this List Service such as the List Browse, Search Engine, Forums, and Wiki. But most importantly, your List Contribution enables a forum where you and your peers can communicate freely in an environment that is free from moderation, censorship, advertising, commercialism, SPAM, and computer viruses. How many places on the Internet can you make all those statements these days? It is YOUR CONTRIBUTION that directly enables these many aspects of these valuable List services. Please support it today with your List Contribution. Its one of the best investments you can make in your Sport...

Subject: What Are You Thankful For...?
Dear Listers, Here in the United States, Thursday is our National day of Thanksgiving. Many of us will be traveling to be with our families and friends to share in generous feasts of plenty and giving thanks for many blessings that have been bestowed upon us. Many Listers have expressed over the last couple of weeks how thankful they are for the Email Lists and Forums here on the Matronics servers and for all of the assistance and comradery they have experienced being a part of the Lists. One of my favorite comments is when someone writes to me and says something like, "Its the first thing I do in the morning while I'm having my morning coffee!". That's a wonderful tribute to the purpose and function of these Lists. Its always great to hear I'm not the only one that jumps out of bed each morning to check my List email!!

Subject: No "Black Friday" For List Fund Raiser...
Even though the number of List subscriptions and List posts are up significantly this year compared to last year, support during this year's List Fund Raiser has been woefully lagging from last year. There are only a couple more days left in November and the end of the Fund Raiser is quickly approaching. I have always preferred a non-commercial List experience as many, many members have also expressed that they do as well. However, if the yearly fund raiser cannot generate sufficient funds to keep the bills paid on the List service expenses, I will have to look into some sort of advertising. Please don't let that happen! Your personal contribution of $20 or $30 goes a long ways to keeping the operation a float. The lunch combo at Carl's Jr costs nearly $10 these days. Isn't the List worth at least as much as a couple of burgers? Please make sure your name is on this year's List of Contributors published in December.

Subject: thinking about buying again
I'm in the need/mood to avoid the airlines again. They make me so angry with their teeny tiny seats, handling people like cattle, and now EXTRA charges to take your luggage with you. I mean significant extra money. They want $25-40 *each* to carry my wife and my standard luggage on a flight out to see the grandkids. Plus, of course, we can't take our small dogs with us without HUGE extra money. It was cheaper to buy these 13 lb dogs a regular human's seat than go as a pet, but of course, they would not sell us one that way. Anyway, I want to fly my own anyway, so I'm thinking of several possibilities. The L-29 was my first thought (again,) but of course, the fuel is the killer for routine cross country flights. This particular time we/I'll be going from north Alabama to the south Denver area. Also, I want to stay out of class A airspace because I'm a curmudgeon, I guess. If the bird I get is unpressurized I'll need to stay below 12,500 our course because there are no oxygen solutions for the two dogs. With an L-29, my wife (who will be going commercial airliner anyway) will be giving her seat to the dogs. So a two seater with adequate baggage space will be fine. I want the L-29 for the fun factor and the speed, but the fuel is probably killer at 109 gallons/hour. I haven't done the actual flight planning yet but I think it's about 1800 miles, so at 17,500 feet that's what, about 5 hours each way in the L-29? So roughly 1,000 gallons of Jet-A yielding just *fuel* cost of over $4,000 roundtrip. I can't afford that on a routine basis. Another possibility is a Lancair 360 that just came on the market. It's about 200 kts cruise at roughly 10 gal/hr, according to the ad. Definitely affordable as far as fuel, but a lot of money to put into a single engine prop type. I have a Mustang Aeronautics Mustang II that I've converted to an auto engine but I need three small items from a fab shop but no shop in my area will build anything if i don't buy about a thousand units of each piece and I have to supply the original drawings. That is entirely impractical, of course. I don't need 3,000 widgets to pay for just to get 3 pieces. It should cruise at 170 mph on about 5 gal/hour if I can ever get it finished. It's airframe has 770 hours on it already so the plane itself is proven. Built originally in 1972 (the year I first started flying lessons.) Any other ideas, guys? Whichever bird I wind up with, I'll need to get my local instructor to help brush the cobwebs out of my rusty skills, and also to get my biannual.

David, my Mustang II project has temporarily stalled. However, I still think in terms of transportation for one or two, it is near the best so far as economy/cost. You could build it for much less than some of the other kits, fuel will be competitive with other kits, and the speed can be excellent. Just my two cents worth. BTW, I love the L-29, but I'll never have the IFR rating, so it just won't work for me even if I had the dough. Boyce ________________________________________________________________________________

Well, don't buy an L-29 for cross country use or because of the "spacious" seats. Also, I would NEVER put anything in the back seat that could accidentally turn off the fuel, instruments, and any other thing that goes on the back seat. The L-29's purpose is for tactical jet training and not for anything else. I would stick to the reciprocating types for your mission..... -----Original Message----- From: owner-l29-list-server(at)matronics.com [mailto:owner-l29-list-server(at)matronics.com] On Behalf Of David Sent: Wednesday, June 30, 2010 9:32 AM Subject: L29-List: thinking about buying again I'm in the need/mood to avoid the airlines again.

Still cheaper and faster to fly the airlines. What's a few bucks for your bags? You could always ship your bags FEDEX or UPS and pay them twice what the airlines charge.

Subject: External Tanks
Could someone out there maybe help with a problem? I am preparing to transf er my newly acquired L-29 from Minnesota to Virginia. I am trying to instal l the external fuel tanks but can't get the hardpoint hooks to close on the support rods. I was told all that was needed was to push the support rods into the latches. When this is done, the hook closes around the rod but doe sn't lock. As soon as pressure is released, the hooks springs open. Seems t o be in the jettison position all the time. We've tried all the switch combinations on the armament panel and still ope n. Checked all the right panel switches in the F/C and R/C and schematics b ut still no cigar. Could someone tell me how to set the hooks into the clos ed position? Only other solution is to put a bolt thru the mechansim to hol d the hook in the closed position. - Another issue. Can the Czech NO2 and O2 bottles be hydro tested in the US a nd be DOT approved if they pass? I've heard they-had to be replaced if th ey are removed from the aircraft. Is this correct or can they be hydro test ed? - Any advise would be-appreciated - Thanks, Anthony-- ________________________________________________________________________________

I wonder if a scuba dive shop would check those bottles? They check scuba bottles, up to 5-7,000 psi routinely. If you need a copilot for your MN to VA trip and can use a copilot with zero hours jet time, I might be available. Depends on the time frame.

If you hang one tank with the power on, it releases automatically. Safety. You don't want to fly with one full tank hanging so it releases both. Just leave the power off until both hooks are in place. ----- Original Message ----- From: Anthony Royal To: l29-list(at)matronics.com Sent: Tuesday, October 12, 2010 4:18 PM Subject: Re: L29-List: External Tanks Bill, We've tried with power on and power off.

Yeah, Virginia has never had an L-29 in the state and I had to make sure the local FSDO would sign off the inspection program and Ops Limitations before I bought it. They made sure I was made aware the tanks need to be changed if they were out of the hydro limit and removed . The 29's approved inspection program has in it to maintain with the DOT regulations so I was hoping to get by with a hydro test and hopefully pass, just to get the aircraft back to VA. Then I would just change out to scuba tanks. Thanks for the inut.

Is the power on when you try to lock the control rods? It could be de-activated that way with a wiring change to the armament panel or a short somewhere grounding the solenoid for the release. If it locks with power off and releases with power on, that could be it. Mine has no ARM panel, but the connector is there, I rigged a safety switch so I could drop in emergencies. O2 and Air bottles are the big elephant in the room no one wants to talk about. I tried all sorts of places, no ones willing to take liability for the inspection. My A&P "visually inspects" per the maintenance docs, but that's it. I've been thinking about replacing them with scuba and aircraft O2 tanks, haven't decided yet.

I have used scuba air for the last 3 years and they guy that had it before me used scuba seven years before that. I have spent some time working on mine recently making sure it will hold air as long as possible. In doing so, I have removed a check a number of components and have had no corrosion to speak of. As long as it's DRY, I think that is the most significant issue. I'd be curious to know what other L-29 guys are using.... BTW, I found a pretty cool ultrasonic leak detector from Grainger that is pretty amazing. It surprised me how many really small leaks I had. Detector was so sensitive and found so many leaks (and one bad reducer) that she will hold 70 bar for months at a time now...

Subject: L-29 Compressor
Date: Oct 14, 2010
The compressor is in place on my plane in 1998. Its always works well. It il in place in the front, right side, where was the originally IFF. It is an electric compressor with a switch on the mail panel, front place. I put it off when aerobatics. You have to check the oil once a year. It is on bigs silent-blocs. It gives air pressure for everything, except the rear canopy seal. Begins to work at 20 psi, stops at 50. Takes 14 minutes from 0 to 50 psi, and 7 from 30 to 50. There is a water draining to be open after each flight. I have no leaks on my air circuit. Best regards.

Subject: L29 air system mod
Date: Oct 17, 2010
Been some discussion around the air system - Jean shared his compressor modification which is great. For those wanting to do the same, one could use an old Cornelius compressor - its a 3 stage driven by an 24V electric motor. People used to buy them surplus and rig up homebrew compressors, some googling should reveal more. >From a ground handling perspective the Achilles heel of the L29 is the air system - if you flying away somewhere, its necessary to send air ahead by road, or arrange air at the destination - either scuba air or Nitrogen, both work perfect. I have done this! To get around this, I also came up with an idea and made a modification which has worked trouble free now for 3 years. I never fly above 20,000ft so do not need oxygen. I therefore replaced the oxygen tanks with additional "normal" tanks. Lets call the standard system the "A" tanks, and the additional set the "B" tanks. Each set of tanks has a shut off valve which then goes into a t-fitting - the middle of which feeds the aircraft air system. So one or both valves has to be open for flight. Operation is simple - if its a local flight open say the "A" system valve, check pressure, add air if required and fly. After the flight, close the valve. All the air stays in the tank as there are no losses downstream. For away flights, I open both valves, fill up the system, close off say the "B" system, and fly. On landing, I shut off the valve. I can then leave the aircraft, knowing that when I return it has not lost any air. I can fly several sorties, all on the first "A" set of tanks. And I still have a full set of "B" tanks. So when the first set gets low on pressure, I simply use the other set. It works great. I made one away trip about 2 months back where I flew to destination, flew 3 sorties, and flew back, several days later. And still had lots of air. The other great thing about this mod is that the standard system has 8l of air, the secondary system has 12l. So the mod takes the air carried on board from 8l to 20l in total ( or to be precise from 1200l to 3000l at 150 bar) , and the ability to shut off the tanks means no lost air when on the ground. You have to remember to open a set of tanks before flight - I preflight in the normal way, and open the air system then check in the rear cockpit that not only the main air system is ok, but also the backup air. After start, my final pre-taxi check is the pneumatic pressure - I then roll forward and check brakes, and re-check pneumatic pressure. There should be no change. If you open the air, then close it again, the gauge will drop about 20-30 bar from one brake application.

Hi Tim Is it not clear from the manuals? There are schematics showing cockpit layout with all the switches and gauges etc. 80/20 rule probably applies, you will figure out 80%, and 20% will give a problem. Just mail the list for specifics. Out of interest how did you do the labels? Probably been an issue for most of us at this time. I remastered them, if anyone wants I am happy to mail them. Took me days of fiddling on my PC and now I don't even use them - was going to remake them all in english as per original, engraved and letters painted with glow paint for the UV lights, but I did a trial first with paper labels I printed myself (sealed with hairspray). Anyway that was 6 years back and some have fallen off now, but I don't need them anymore. The only switches I cannot identify from memory are the circuit breakers on the RHS. You may want to consider safety wiring the relevant switches in rear cockpit to the correct position to prevent inadvertent operation and loss of pitot / static data, roll and pitch data etc. Or the pax dropping your tanks as what happened here in SA by a journo cadging a ride. (luckily over farmland just before descending over a city (cretin)). I found the easy way was to dlightly unscrew the screw on the switch on the proper side, slip the wire around the screw and the switch lever, and safety in position. Afterward re-tighten the screw.

Gents If you go to the YakUK website they have the labels to download along with other good L29 and Yak gen I had my local sign run guy them off on the correct adhesive paper Now I just need to figure out where to stick them By the way my sign guy tells me he can make them glow in the dark , infra red capable etc etc..... Depends how much you want to spend Thanks for the advice Jorgen , I will certainly be lockwireing the back switches I don't want my joy flights turning into simulator sessions regards Tim Windsor Topred Warbirds Hunter Valley 0412881016 -------- Original Message -------- Subject: RE: L29-List: L-29 Compressor From: "Jorgen Nielsen" <jorgen.nielsen(at)mweb.co.za> Date: Wed, October 20, 2010 8:27 am Hi Tim Is it not clear from the manuals?

Subject: PLEASE READ - List Fund Raiser Kickoff!
Dear Listers, Each November I hold a PBS-like fund raiser to support the continued operation and upgrade of the List services at Matronics. It's solely through the Contributions of List members that these Matronics Lists are possible. There is NO advertising to support the Lists. You might have noticed the conspicuous lack of flashing banners and annoying pop-ups on the Matronics Email List email messages and web site pages including: * Matronics List Forums http://forums.matronics.com * Matronics List List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com * Matronics List Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search * Matronics List Browser http://www.matronics.com/listbrowse You don't find advertising on any of these pages because I believe in a List experience that is completely about the sport we all enjoy - namely Airplanes and not about annoying advertisements. During the month of November I will be sending out List messages every couple of days reminding everyone that the Fund Raiser is underway. I ask for your patience and understanding during the Fund Raiser and throughout these regular messages. The Fund Raiser is only financial support mechanism I have to pay all of the bills associated with running these Lists. Your personal Contribution counts! Once again, this year I've got a terrific line up of free gifts to go along with the various Contribution levels. Most all of these gifts have been provided by some of the vary members and vendors that you'll find on Matronics Lists and have been either donated or provided at substantially discounted rates. This year, these generous people include: * Bob Nuckolls of the AeroElectric Connection http://www.aeroelectric.com * Andy Gold of the Builder's Bookstore http://www.buildersbooks.com * Jon Croke of HomebuiltHELP http://www.homebuilthelp.com These are extremely generous guys and I encourage you to visit their respective web sites. Each one offers a unique and very useful aviation-related product line. I would like publicly to thank Bob, Andy, and Jon for their generous support of the Lists again this year!! You can make your List Contribution using any one of three secure methods including using a credit card, PayPal, or by personal check. All three methods afford you the opportunity to select one of this year's free gifts with a qualifying Contribution amount!!

Subject: November List Fund Raiser
There is an automatic "squelch button" of sorts for the Fund Raiser messages. Here's how it works... As soon as a List member makes a Contribution through the Matronics Fund Raiser web site, they will instantly cease to receive these Fund Raiser messages for the rest of the month! Its just that simple. I really do appreciate each and every one of your individual Contributions to support the Lists. It is your support that enables me to upgrade the hardware and software that are required to run a List Site such as this one. It also goes to pay for the commercial-grade Internet connection and to pay the huge electric bill to keep the computer gear running and the air conditioner powered on. I run all of the Matronics Email List and Forums sites here locally which allows me to control and monitor every aspect of the system for the utmost in reliably and performance. Your personal Contribution matters because, when combined with other Listers such as yourself, it pays the bills to keep this site up and running. I accept exactly ZERO advertising dollars for the Matronics Lists sites. I can't stand the pop-up ads and all other commercials that are so prevalent on the Internet these days and I particularly don't want to have it on my Email List sites. If you appreciate the ad-free, grass-roots, down-home feel of the Matronics Email Lists, please make a Contribution to keep it that way!! http://www.matronics.com/contribution Thank you! Matt Dralle Matronics Email List Administrator [Note that there are certain circumstances where you might still see a Contribution related message. For example, if someone replies to one of the messages, when using the List Browse feature, or when accessing List message via the Forum. The system keys on the given email address and since most of these are anonymous public access methods, there is no simple way to filter them.] ________________________________________________________________________________
