Thanks Sam. But next hurricane it will probably be my Comanche, not the Aztec.
I am taking the Aztec back to the states to sell. I am hoping that Randy will
finish The Project this year and I will have a CJ to play with down here.

Tropical Depression 6 got so depressed that it degenerated back into a tropical
wave. You may have dodged the bullet too. Regardless, it put on a light show
for us with multiple CBs blasting through here last night. Wind gusts hit 40
kts but it was mostly benign.

Jim
If you get this far, you've made it! ;)
For all of you coming to OSH, as always, if I can do anything to help at
this end, give me a call - 920 203 0046. If I'm on the ground, I won't be
very far away.
Have a good flight and fun at MTW.
Janet

Subject: Yak 18T
From: "Russian Aero" <russian@russianaero.com>
<mailto:jefflinebaugh@earthlink.net>
Hello Jim,
I had your email to Gerry Byrnes forwarded to me.
My Yak 18T was imported by me from Russia in 1997. It is on the Russian
FLA registration and I am a licenced Russian FLA engineer. Between 1998
and 2001, I did a full strip, refabric and bare metal 2 pack paint job.
New hoses, air compressor, tyres, brake drums etc. The FLA inspections,
in the good old days, was 'on condition'. My aircraft was inspected by
Andry Schnirev, the FLA Chief Enginner last year.
Due to UK-CAA legislation, it has become virtually impossible
(no-impossible) to operate the aircraft in the UK. We have to go for
Hungarian registrations, which is not a route I care to chose. Last
flew the aircraft on May 31st for 2.5 hours.
The attached file shows aircraft in hangar with 90% of paint job completed.
Airfarme is 1580 hours Engine 560 hours (TBO 750)
Interior is original Russian and needs re-furbishment. This was to be
my next job. Zero-timed SARW (Shakhty Aero Repair Works - Rostov) M14P
engines also available. Avionics - completely standard Russian, except
for Western headset jacks and power supply for GPS.
Prop is working fine, but on Russian system is now due for overhaul.
You should be aware that transport requires open top shipping container
and special support to turn aircraft through 90 degrees, as the width is
3.13 metres with wings removed.
Aircraft hangared, based in UK - West Wales at Haverfordwest Airfield - EGFE
The aircraft is for sale, as is, where is, but I would naturally assist
with dismantling and crating. M14P engine, zero-timed, in SARW crate,
complete US$12,000 not negotiable.
Price - US$37,000 ovno
Kind regards,
Keith Elcomb

Subject: RE: My last letter
Ernie,
Thanks for your e-mails. Please do read the entire magazine before getting
your dander up. J I have heard for a while from the CJ-6 and Yak-52 owners
that we are not giving them enough space, and the articles were planned even
well before the June issue when we mistakenly identified a CJ-6 as a Yak-52.
We also made an effort at AirVenture 2002 to get one of our volunteer
photographer/writers in the back of a CJ-6 to do air-to-air coverage (which
is how we got the Yak on the back cover), and there's a story in the works
about the Yak-52 tailwheel conversion project (I forget the gentleman's
name - George?) that will run in early 2004.
One of the problems with trying to cover different events is that we have
no staff. Even I am only paid as a part-time contractor, and we have no
budget for travel (other than to Sun 'n Fun and Oshkosh). So unless a
Warbirds member writes up something about an event, we have little chance of
covering it in the magazine. I certainly would welcome any text and photos
that you or other members send in about CJ-6 or Yak-52 events. We can run
them as stand-alone articles, or if several members from a Warbirds Squadron
attend or are involved in an event, we can run it in Squadron News. Feel
free to send in any information to Warbirds Editor, P.O. Box 28362, Tempe,
AZ 85285-8362 or simply e-mail me the text and digital photos (of high
quality or super high quality).
BTW, your e-mails came to me as editor, so Mike hasn't seen them. Did you
want me to forward them to Mike? Or let the matter drop?
Kim

Dear Mike,
I'd like to apologize for my last email, since I didnt read the entire
magazine and failed to notice not 1 but 2 articles devoted to yaks and CJ's
but and then the kicker, a full page photo of a Yak 52 on the rear cover.
I'll remove my shoe from my mouth later
Embarrased,
Ernest Martinez
PS I did CC the YPA on a previous version of this letter but I had a typo
in your email address so it didnt make it to you.

--> Yak-List message posted by: "Yakjock" <Yakjock@msn.com>
Lads and Lassies,
Several of us are planning to fly together to MTW this coming weekend from the
West Coast. Our first gathering point will be at Rock Springs, Wyoming, this
coming Saturday. I'll be flying from Portland, Oregon via Boise and Logan Cache,
Utah. Blitz Fox and Steve Holifield will be departing the Bay Area via Elko
and Salt Lake. Current plans are to overnight Saturday at either Casper or
Cheyenne, see Rushmore and the Badlands Sunday morning, and then direct from
Pierre to MTW by Sunday evening.
Anyone wanting to join in along the route let us know.
Look forward to seeing everyone in Manitowoc!
Hal Morley

Hi Mike,
I got the thing off my hand yesterday. Don Andrews and I flew this morning
to check out my hand and it's a go. We are planning to leave Phoenix
Sunday morning and be there either late Sunday or very early Monday.
I will be bringing the laptop. I am unable to get anything out of the data
base program. Maybe you can give me a little help while we are there.
Regards, Dee

Ernie,
I will pack a hammock feel free to swing between my main gear for a couple
of days. Yak 52 main gear makes a great place to hang a hammock :)
There is a new hotel in Fond Dulac that is trying to get trade for the week.
It is some time since I looked but they had rooms a month ago. If is the
country in suites in Fond Dulac.
Sorry can't be of more help than that.

Does anyone know if there is commercial air service into or near MTW? I was
going to fly commercial into Appleton, but I'm not having much luck with
rooms. I'm considering MTW.

Thanks,
I'm still trying to work out the details with my wife, I may fly up stag. I
spent too much money getting my LOA last weekend in San Diego. Passed my
wingman checkride in an L-29 off the wing of an L-39, hell of an expensive
way to get a patch......Hope I'm still qualified to fly with the CJ's and
Yaks.
