As an interesting side note, I published an article on the internet back in 1995. About a year ago I did a search of my name on ALTAVISTA and found the article I had written published on a Russian Website.....funny thing is that it was written in Russian! Here's the link if you wanna see it http://www.ada.ru/Guns/ballistic/accuracy/index.htm From that I've learned my name is written as " " Maybe I'll have that put near the entrance to the cotpit of my 52. Maybe something like "Comrade " hehehe! Thanks for the translation link but it didn't work for me. I'd still like to know what the words mean. Frank ( ) N911OM Jon wrote............................. There's a good translation mechanism at: http://www.translate.ru/text.asp?lang=en Select "russian -> english" and a cyrillic keyboard will appear below. I like to joke that most "airplane russian" is really Secret Decoder Ring English... if you know the letter substitutions to the latin alphabet, or can sound out the words, it turns out that a lot of the technical words are english words written in Cyrllic.

Dennis Savarese" Subject: Yak-List: Posted on AVWEB today --> Yak-List message posted by: "A. Dennis Savarese" Chinese GA Market Goes Airborne A rumored coming change in Chinese airspace laws may soon in that country open a new general aviation market. While many GA manufacturers struggle in the U.S. with layoffs and production slowdowns to boot, Shenyang Aircraft Industry Group of China (a major manufacturer of fighter planes for the Chinese military) recently announced it will roll out a light plane this year. The price tag is will likely fall between 500,000 and 600,000 yuan (U.S. $60,241 and U.S. $72,289). The country itself, by some estimates, currently contains about ten privately owned aircraft. Nanjing Light Aircraft Co. Ltd. began to design a five-seat AC-500 plane five years ago and plans to put it on the market early next year. So far, they have received about 30 orders. "As many Chinese entrepreneurs have made a big fortune from their private-owned businesses, small-sized planes are becoming affordable," Wang Linjiang, the company's chief designer and general manager, told the Xinhua news agency. He adds that most of the orders they have taken are "from domestic private companies." Some might wonder how these companies plan to succeed, given China's tightly controlled airspace. Wang doesn't seem to worry, as he was told by "a quite reliable source" that regulations would soon be relaxed, and hopes the changes will help sell 500 private aircraft per year. The Chinese government won't confirm that, but has hinted that its regulations are being reviewed. ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 07:16:32 AM PST US From: "Bob Monzo" Subject: Re: Yak-List: Russian words --> Yak-List message posted by: "Bob Monzo" The first word is easy. It's DOSAAF which is the acronym of the para-military organization in the old Soviet Union that operated these aircraft. I believe this stands for Voluntary Society for Assistance to the Army, Air Forces and Navy. I cannot find the other two words in my limited Russian pocket dictionary which I have in my office. I have a more extensive Russian dictionary that I keep at the hangar. I should be going out there later today. If I have any luck finding these words, I'll post the translation.

However, it is very close to remove, removable or detach, detachable. Unfortunately, I am up and locked on the third set of two words. I could not find anything close that made sense. The English equivalent of the first word of the third set is FRZNK. This would be hard to pronounce even in Russian. Maybe Klingon? The third set of two words will require the expertise of a person with a real knowledge of Russian as I am just a lowly Yak owner/pilot with access to a Russian dictionary.
