Dear Editor,
A correction is needed in Budd Davisson's article. Jim Goolsby is not nor
has been President of the Yak Pilots Association. That sometimes thankless job
was in the very capable hands of Mike Filucci at that time, although I was
responsible for Bushi Cheng's visit. Interesting note, we were able to raise the
donated funds for the visit in just 10 days.

Correction to Jim Goolsby article...
Not all M-14Ps are Romanian built. The wording is
rather misleading; "...Romanian-built, Russian
designed".

D. Zeman,
You are correct. My screw up. Most of the Yak stuff I get exposed to is
from AeroStar. My M-14p came from them. I personally don't know how to get or
where to get a Russian built engine. When I wrote the article, I was speaking
from my experience, but you are correct.

Jim Wickersham of Shadetree Aviation in Carson City, NV, still has NOS (new, old-stock)
Russian-built M-14Ps.

Does the housai really get 2350 rpm or are the governors set to 2150 for reduced
power in China. We have checked everything except the tach. We are trying to
borrow an optical tach to eliminate the tach.

Yes, they turn 2350 RPM. If you use an optical tach checker don't forget that
the prop is geared to turn more slowly than the crank.

Jim,
I am curious, how does your serial number on your
M-a4P begin? My understanding is that Russian engines
begin with K(Ya), where (Ya) is a "backwards" R;
Romanian with a RA. It may be my circles, but I never
ran into a Romanian engine before 1999-2000.

D,
Sam Sax & I purchased two engines together in August 1997. Our understanding
was these were the last of a production batch. My engine's S/N is RA9642002.
Sam's is just one number different. This engine was purchased from Aerostar
S.A. in Bacau, Romania and we used AeroThrust Corp. as our purchasing agent.
At 431 hours, she started making metal, which led us to find that the factory
had put a scrapper ring (instead of an oil ring), in the oil land of #3
piston. This caused removing all 9 cylinders for inspection and replacing all
rings and gaskets.
I was told later but I can not verify this, that this batch of M-14p engines
were Aerostar's first production run. My letters to Aerostar were never
answered.
