I would like the pedals t be about four inches further forward. And a piece of
luggage that is designed for the hell hole (with a built in recepticle in the
hell hole to hold the luggage.) the 3 blade prop would be nice and I like the
looks of the 52TW main gear, but that would be VERY costly. Otherwise, I like
it just the way it is. ( a P51 type canopy would be cool though!)

Hey Jim,
Maybe you me and Pappy can fly down together. Pappy is on your way, then I'm
just south of him. Lakeland is due south of my place.

Subject: Yak 50 mods
Hello Yakkers!
I just read the email from Tim Gagnon about all the neat "updates and
mods" being suggested for the Yak 50. A copy of his posting follows with a
comment or two from your humble servant, me.

It appears that, going thru Mr. Gagnons' list, if all of his changes
were done, there would not be much Yak 50 left. You would have an airplane
remarkably similar to an SU-26, Extra, Yak 55, etc.etc. The 50 is a
superbly nimble little airplane...now approaching "classic" status that,
imho, soldiers along just fine as it is. For all these "mo'betta'" things,
why not just go where they are already available?

Is the YPA planning to take part in the fly-bys that are part of the Centennial
