    Subject: Re: Restrictions
    --> Yak-List message posted by: Michael Di Marco <mgdimarco@yahoo.com> I disagree. All that has to be done is to send letters to the old and new FSDOs responsible for the old and new base. As you said, the AW Cert and Limitations are tied to the airplane. That goes with the airplane wherever it is based. If there is a statement in your limitations tieing the AW Cert to a FSDO, get it changed. It is not required to be that way. Mike Di Marco China Blue "A. Dennis Savarese" <adsavar@gte.net> wrote:--> Yak-List message posted by: "A. Dennis Savarese" It clearly states in FAA Order 8130.2D Change 3 that OL's and AC are tied together. "....These operating limitations are a part of the special airworthiness certificate...". Once the home base airport changes, the OL's are effectively null and void and therefore so is the AC.

That is right because the LoL lists the home base and if the home base changes, you need a new LoL. That is usually accompanied by a new AC ... at least it has with my airplanes and with those I have helped to reregister. Normally the home base is explicitly listed in the LoL which ensures that you have to jump through all the hoops should you change the home base. I have heard of people getting the LoL to refer to the program letter to list the home base. Since the program letter is updated by the owner as necessary, it would potentially allow the owner to move the home base without having to get a new LoL/AC issued. This would greatly simplify the life of the next owner or if you wish to move the airplane since it would not involve the FSDO with the exception of filing a new program letter with the local FSDO every time you make a move. I like that idea and will pursue that approach with the MIDO and/or FSDO when it comes time to issue the AC for The Project. -- Brian Lloyd 6501 Red Hook Plaza, Suite 201 brian@lloyd.com St. Thomas, VI 00802 +1.340.998.9447 - voice +1.360.838.9669 - fax ---------------------------------

Pictured is the internal, air operated plunger that unlocks the landing gear. I guess it's cheap insurance to check them often because if yours are as bad as what is pictured here you may not be able to deploy your landing gear before too long. http://home.earthlink.net/~yak52driver/uplock/uplock.html Frank N911OM

    Subject: Re: Yak-52 Uplock Corrosion
    tests=QUOTED_EMAIL_TEXT,REFERENCES,SPAM_PHRASE_03_05, --> Yak-List message posted by: "Walt Lannon" <lannon@look.ca> Hi Frank; Very good information. The 52 uplock release valve parts look a little different than the equivalent CJ6 units, the 52 is probably a later and improved version. The achilles heel though is the same, if the corrosion gets bad enough to sieze the plunger that particular gear leg will not extend whether using normal or emergency air. To put it bluntly you are screwed! I don't know the 52 history in this regard but this was obviously a major problem with the CJ in Chinese service as for some period of time uplock systems were totally removed from the aircraft. Whether they were removed from all aircraft or only at individual PLAAF units I don't know. They were apparently reinstated in later years as all current imports seem to have them. A number of the CJ's currently flying in the US and Canada have no uplocks. They rely on system pressure to keep the gear up. The gear up lights tend to go out momentarily with "G" loading. I have installed a complete new uplock system on one CJ at the owners request and have another set in stock for my own. All four of the aircraft I imported from China had the systems removed. The only thing I can suggest to avoid a problem is dilligent use of the water trap (snot valve), regular and frequent replacement of water filters, keeping a little air tool oil in the system and periodic disassembly of the system components for cleaning & inspection etc. On another subject can anyone advise whether the Yak 52 flap is structurally and operationally the same as the CJ flap and what is the published flap extend speed limit for the 52.

    --> Yak-List message posted by: "Richard Basiliere" <BasiliereR@ci.boulder.co.us> I know the ops specs on my Sukhoi have no "homebase" and no restrictions. They are the originals that were issued to the first owner, I'm the 3d. Nothing anywhere that anything has to be added, changed, or whatever at anytime. I could fax to anyone that would like. The Airworthiness cert is original (pretty faded now) 1993. They were issued in Fla when Pompano was in business. Whatever I can do to help.
