Has anyone ever stripped down the components of the air con system? I can
accept that its not a great system, but I don't seem to get air flow through
it.
Lots of cool air would be good, but even warm air blowing on me would be
better than no air!

OK I don't really know anything about jets, or systems, but I'll throw in my
2 cents worth. Does the jet have a 110V AC power supply while in the air? If
so, could you not strip down a $100 window unit AC like used in a house,
reconfigure/reshape it so it will fit into whatever baggage space you have?
Maybe replace the existing AC unit, and hook up to existing duct work? How
ridiculous of an idea is this?

The L-29 air conditioning unit is a turbo-cooler design. Hot bleed air
fromthe compressor is sent through a diverter/mixer valve, one side of
the diverter valve goes straight into the cockpit to provide heat, the
air is turned on by pushing the cabin pressurization valve on. The
other side of the diverter valve goes through an air2air heat
exchanger to pre-cool the hot bleed air, the output of the heat
exchanger goes through a turbine. The act of turning turbine expends
enrgery and thereby cools the air. then it is mixed with the hot side
from the diverter valve to regulate the air temp. The diverter valve
is controlled by the 3 position switch in the cockpit, cold diverts
all air to to the heat exchanger, hot bypasses the heat exchanger, and
automat controls the diverter valve based on the thermostat in the
cokpit, mixing the hot and cold bleed air to the desired temp.
There are 2 major problems with the system. First the heat exchanger
relies on RAM air in order to cool the hot bleed air, when the jet is
stationary the heat exchanger does nothing due to lack of RAM air. The
second issue is that the cooler turbine is too small to really cool
the air sufficiently to work in extreme temps. A larger turbine cannot
be fitted (Like the L-39 unit) because the M-701 doesnt have
sufficient excess bleed air capacity to turn anything larger and still
maintain combustion pressures.
I have worked on and off on a 24v powered auto air compressor, but
this also has its limitations. There is very little room in the nose
compartment for a sufficient size condensor. There is no good place to
place an decent size evaporator in the cockpit, and there is no easy
way to deal with condensation in the cockpit, so you would end up with
a whole lot of water in the belly.
I experimented with a marine type refrigeration 24v compressor but it
didnt have the capacity required for cooling. I may try again with a
24v syncronous motor which may have the required torque to turn the
compressor, but power draw will be on the order of about 60 amps.
Plumbing through the pressure vessel is also an issue which needs
resolution.

Comprehensive answer Ernie!
OK so no easy answers re the aircon. I remember you were experimenting.
Regarding airflow, when the aircon is running, cool or hot, can you actually
feel any type of breeze in the cockpit?

Or is there anyplace one can attach an automotive type compressor?
Shaft speeds on the engine, of course, are out of the question.

Subject: | L-29 and other jets at Reno Air Races? |
--> L29-List message posted by: SD737@aol.com
Hi guys,
I live in Reno and I spoke with the Reno Air Race Association (RARA) two
weeks ago and asked about L-29's getting into the races and he said that
actually they might not have the L-39's race any longer. He said they don't
make
enough noise and that the crowd finds them boring. Also, last year Dave
Canavo's L-39 walked away with the race, and so there really wasn't a race hence
it wasn't much of a crowd pleaser....
Read this article below.
Some of you may have heard that the L-39 Jet Races in Reno are in jeopardy.
There is some truth to that rumor. I won't get into the politics of the issue,
however, it is a reality that RARA is looking to improve the participation
and sponsorship for the event. CJAA member Jim O'neal is spearheading an
effort to gather enough support to keep the Jets from becoming a footnote at Reno.
I will be lending my support on behalf of CJAA as well. The initial concept
is to pattern the Jets after all the other competitiive classes. What this
means in a nutshell is that all subsonic speed jet aircraft will be able to
compete rather than a one only (L-39) model. SOOOOO, any jet, (L-29's, Casa's,
Fouga's, Tweets, Provosts,Iskra's, T-33's, L-39's, etc., etc. etc.) will be
racing against similar SPEED aircraft. Jim is working to draw up a set of rules
that will be the model for the event. We're going to bend as many elbows as
we can to gather at least a minimum of 20+ Jets to committ to Reno this
September. One other big hurdle that needs to be addressed is sponsorship for
the
Jet Class. Basically, we will need individuals, companies, corporations, etc.
to sponsor the prize money for the class. Being a sponsor at the event does
have its privileges.
The bottom line is that we need to move on this ASAP. Watching the Races is
a great adrenaline rush, now, guess what the feeling would be to
participate!!!!!! Please, Please, contact me if you think that you or a group of
you
might wish to pool resources to race or sponsor part of the event. Jim and I will
be at the Convention for a brief on the progress, and to answer any
questions. E'mail me if you have any inclinations as we need to start recruiting
Now.

--> L29-List message posted by: SD737@aol.com
A number of you are already aware that the Reno Air Racing Association
(RARA) is questioning the value of the L-39 Jet races in Reno,as to participation
and sponsorship. With the blessing of CJAA and under the leadership of Jim
O'Neal, I'm asking that the L-39 owners/pilots gather as much support as you
can to keep the Jet class from becoming extinct. We're looking to include other
subsonic jet species. (29's, Casa's, Fouga's, Provost's, etc, etc.) The
concept is to have "like speed" models racing against each other rather than one
model (39). This would mean that we would have a Gold, Siver, Bronze event
similar to the other classes. For that reason we need committed planes. For
first time racing pilots there is a school that you must attend ("which way is
left"!!!!!) If you've had the desire to compete, now is the time. If you
choose not to compete, but, would like to help financially as a sponsor of the
Jet
Class, 50% of all sponsor money goes back to the racers as prize money, we
need you as well. I also, posted a similar plea on the CJAA website
(classicjets.org_) Please contact me by E'mail or phone if you can help out.
