    Subject: brakes
    --> Yak-List message posted by: "Mark Jefferies YAK UK Ltd" <mark@yakuk.com> John. we have also experienced cable getting stiff in the outer, so oil that and exercise, and the return spring broken at the valve, so take a look!!! cheers, MJ. YAK UK. --> Yak-List message posted by: John Alber <john@johnalber.com> I've been noticing that the brakes on my Yak-52 have been getting slow to release after application. That is, I squeeze them on and then release, but feel them drag for a few seconds before they free up. This seems worse in cold weather. I hear the air vent in the cockpit when I release them, but still feel the drag. My mechanic has suggested as an initial step adding pneumatic system lubricant of the type used in tractor-trailer pneumatic systems. Any thoughts as to the cause and as to that suggested remedy? Thanks. John Alber

    --> Yak-List message posted by: DENNISDOONAN@aol.com We had the same problem and found that the brake cable was kinked against a castellated nut at the base of the stick and was frayed within the cable housing. New cable, problem solved.

    Subject: Strut Pressures Yak 52
    --> Yak-List message posted by: TASTEVENS1@aol.com I have unsuccessful locating factory specifications regarding the amount of pressure in the main wheel struts in atmospheres. How much travel should occur in the "normal" landing? The scissor brackets appear almost fully extended on most aircraft I have seen on the ground and that appears to yield a fairly firm spring to absorb the landing shock. Any tricks to setting the proper pressure? Tim Stevens Email To: TAStevens1@aol.com

A little research will uncover a wide variety of Chinese schemes. Too bad the sense of Chinese style for paint schemes is divergent from what we Westerners see in a paint scheme. However, they did use a number of really cool looking camo schemes on combat aircraft, including Korean war fighters. I found good sources in Model Airplane paint scheme catalogs as found on-line.

The plane was in hayward. It was completely the normal ChiCom military paint, Mao era, but the paint was NICE, semigloss poly. And the owner did it himself.
