    --> Yak-List message posted by: cpayne@joimail.com Congratulations to Jeff Linebaugh who passed his Check Pilot ride at AYS. Also congrats to Richard Hess and Mike Roehr for their Wingman qualification. We had 12 airplanes, including Mike Filucci's who joined on Sat. for the check rides. Several IP's also joined in to provide invaluable back seat instruction. Weather was OK most of the time. The airport manager hosted a Georgia BBQ lunch on their premises; the locals were just great and want us back. Of course, Goolsby arrived early to grab the publicity with his mug on front of the local newspaper. Lets see, good weather, clear airspace, good ramp service, great food, and cheap sleep in town. I love good logistics. We even found a nearby restuarant with a banquet room, and big screen TV to watch Terry Calloway's videos. One of the waitresses bought in her own VCR for us to use. We are gonna have a good year! Craog Payne

If your local groups would like to see more events, please visit www.flyredstar.org and e-mail your Regional Coordinators as listed on the home page once you log-in. They are the catalysts to seeing greater RPA organization in your local area. If you are not a member, we urge you to join.

    Subject: SE Clinic.
    --> Yak-List message posted by: cjpilot710@aol.com Troops, The first SE Formation Clinic was in my estimation pretty much a success. We were schedule to have 8 students however 1 got serious a mechanical problem on departure and his partner stayed with him to help. Pat on the back for Tom Bennett who was looking to finally take his Wingman check ride. We'll get to you Tom. Lots of help thanks to the instructor/safety pilots that showed up. "Wild" Bill Walker Ray Gage Terry Calloway Ken Terry (a T-34 type, but we took him anyway) Craig Payne Erie Martinez (new call sign "Martinass") Jeff Linebaugh Bob Langford Plus Liz Rizzo (I spell that right?) adding an eye pleasing form to the flight line. The students were all pretty much ready-up on the book work when they arrive. Jay Land (He had our sides hurting at dinner on his very first impressions on being in formation the first time.) He flies very well. Tim Williams. (In a brand new TW still unpainted) Mike Roehr (a 52 kind of guy who once flew the Voodoo "Who do?") He passed his Wingman check. He also allow us to work on his engine a little ;) Richard "Mongoose" Hess Retired AF type and now airline type. He and I both received our training from one Mary Gaffany as Florida boys. Ain't nothing wrong with this kid. Of course he passed his Wingman check ride. He has a brand new CJ-G BTW with all the bells and - - well, lets just say there was lots drull puddles on the tarmack. Ray Reeves. His starting problems set his training back a bit. He was also our best ambassador with the local folk, being very patient telling folks what we were doing there. Shane Golden. He's our SE Coordinator and he single handed operated the power point which I being computer dumb, would have been up the creek to give the ground school without. He flies his 52 really well. Jeff Linebaugh. What can I say? He of course passed his Checkpilot check ride. However I saw him out on my wing in Wild Bill's TW with the biggest shit eating grin. Man-was his teeth gleaming in the sunlight! On Saturday we put up ten aircraft. 4-3-3. We made a big arrow head and flew over Waycross several times. In my back seat was the airport commissioner "Mrs. Beth." There were several other local GIBs in the other planes. "Martinass" and Lize flew the camera ship. We got some good footage which show a very decent formation. All went as briefed. The folks of Waycross, Ga. were the best. There was always a small crowd politely standing around watching. The city commissioners and airport manger made sure that we got the first class treatment. Ever had a REALLY good BBQ for us on Saturday. Jim and Keith the line guys ran the fuel truck and provide oil so that no one EVER had to wait for service. On the AOPA airport directory page, customer comments are the highest and for good reason. These guys were top notch and as A&Ps were right in there to help. The boss Drew, wanted to know about next year. I KNOW Waycross wants us back. The airport, very nice now will be better next year after the $1.2 million improvements going on right now. All of us there, like and thought it should be done again. Looks like a "GO" to me. So thanks to Shane for the help with print up some manuals and power point, and Craig Payne who chased down hotels stuff, this went very well for the first time. NOW Sun & Fun.

    Subject: Introducing a New CJ Owner
    --> Yak-List message posted by: "Jeff Linebaugh" <jefflinebaugh@earthlink.net> Yakers.... We have a new member of our community! His name is Paul Batlinger..a great guy, a fellow FedEx pilot...and he has just purchased a CJ from the Selby's. As he is deployed to the war, he hasn t even had the opportunity to pick it up.... I received this e-mail today from him...it gives a very different viewpoint of what is going on "over there" As most of you know, we have a wonderful three year old girl named Lindy (Jim Goolsby's future granddaughter-in-law). . I have to admit that this brought a tear to my eye... Not yak related...but know there are several of you that would appreciate reading this. Let's welcome Paul to our group...! Jeff Linebaugh jefflinebaugh@earthlink.net -------Original Message------- From: batlinerp@gimail.af.mil Maribat6023@aol.com; debandpaul1863; Bernie-MJ@kc.rr.com; Jonesinph@juno.com Dan Batliner; Stephanie Batliner; jefflinebaugh@earthlink.net; jimscjs@mbay net; ecrouse@atchison.k12.ks.us; jennifer.stilgenbauer@mail.sprint.com; troutmo@mail.midbuchanan.k12.mo.us; Kachina5@juno.com; lbats@att.net; Topazzz2154@aol.com; VEBELB@aol.com; jonesinph; Riddle, Trudi A.; Caludia Jade A few days ago we ( my crew and I) experienced another side of war. We were sitting Bravo alert and were launched to transport some opportune cargo coupled with an Aero Med mission (medical transport). The Aero Med mission involved transporting some civilians that were injured in an explosion in Kandahar. As they started loading the civilians onto the aircraft it became clear that most of them were children. What had happened was a terrorist group planned to attack and kill as many Americans as possible. The terrorist=92s set off a small explosion around children knowing that would attract a larger crowd, then a larger explosion would follow meant to kill Americans. The bomb=92s exploded as planned and killed approximately 30 Afgani=92s, mostly children. Dozens more were injured. Fortunately no Americans were present. Some of the injured were transported by an American aircraft to an American, military, hospital. After a week or so we were charged with taking some of them back to Kandahar. Six of the nine were children, one in particular was a three year old little girl who had burns and cuts on the side of her head and a cast on each leg. She was strapped to the cot with a purple blanket covering her and her pink jacket. At her feet was a plastic toy. The Aero meds were warned that she bites, no doubt from fear. Her parents were not with her and we did not find out if they were alive or not. As for the other=92s, injuries ranged from minor cuts from the debris to broken limbs and burns. How scarred the little girl must have been, taken from a bomb blast meant for the people who would risk there lives to save those injured in the blast One of the Aero meds commented that =93it was as if they threw the bomb in the middle of a little kids soccer practice=94. When I was operating out of Iraq we had the honor of transporting the remains of some of those killed, during and after, the war. Some were as yet unidentified, one was killed buying a CD in Baghdad and one was Mr. Bloom the reporter who died of an aneurysm from riding in a tank while reporting. All were in body bags. I accepted this as an inevitability of war. To see first hand innocent children and adults hurt in such a mindless act is hard to take. As I walked past the little girl I gently touched her arm and smiled, trying to make her feel somewhat at ease. She looked at me with her big brown eye=92s in a distant stare. Through many faults, ours and theirs, a mentality has been created that will allow a hatred so strong that a group of people have no problem killing there own children in hopes of killing an American. As the patients exited the back of the plane we received a reward greater than any medal, a handshake, a smile and a nod of the head saying thank you. Only two of the nine could walk under their own power or without crutches. Fortunately these missions are not typical, most are pretty mundane. We, as Americans, are truly blessed=85=85 never let it be taken for granted. This will be last email I send from here as I should be leaving this evening? I want to thank everyone for the emails,cards and general conversation. I appreciate it very much. Blue Skys Paul

I'm already having withdrawals. It was really strange how every time I tried to trade paint with another plane, the stick pressures increased and the plane corrected itself! Thanks to all the volunteer instructors that kept us out of trouble till we got the hang of things. Looking forward to the next gathering. Jay Land

    Subject: Russian Mag Switch
    From: Don Boardman <dboardm3@twcny.rr.com>
    --> Yak-List message posted by: Don Boardman <dboardm3@twcny.rr.com> Hi Guys, Getting close to having the M-14PF installed in our Murphy Moose. Have the wiring left to do. Does anyone have a schematic (knowledge) of how the Russian mag switch is wired? I have looked at the physical set up at both the mag and switch and basically see what's going on. My assumptions are below: Using shielded wire (have #18 ), center conductor to terminals #1 and #2 of mag switch Left mag to #1 ??? Ground the shields at their respective mags. What goes to the terminal with the inverted square U (Russian P I think)? The switch ends of the two shields? The hole at the mag as well as the switch look pretty big for #18 shielded wire. Is there a special shielded cable that fits into the mag's "fitting"? Any help is much appreciated. Regards, Don Boardman & Partner, Randy Bowers Moose #130 M-14PF 400HP, MT-prop/beta, Aerocet 3500 amphibs, Rome, NY
