Hi Guys,
I'm posting my first of probably many messages from wet and windy Noo Zealand.
Does anybody know of a source for the 'big mutha' main fuse for the Nanchang.
It's I think a 50 amp one and goes in the box on the righthand side aft of the
drivers seat. I am currently using a similar type of fuse kindly supplied by
my nephew in the N.Z. Navy (yes we have a navy!) off of a 35 year old British
Frigate that we poor folks in the South Pacific are still operating. It works
but I would like the genuine part if I can get it. It seems that Doug Sapp and
Joe Howse don't seem to be able to help.
Secondly can anyone tell me what happened to rumoured U.S. (Senate?) legislation
regarding pulling the certification of any ex-warbirds or aircraft regarded
as capable of carrying weapons. I believe it was a post terrorism knee jerk but
can't recall if EAA managed to kill it off. Any info on that would be appreciated.
Cheers from Downunder.
Graeme Frew

From: Carl W. Hays
Subject: M14P Engine
Richard Mouhot, last known address 412 So. H St., Lakeworth, Florida,
sold me a disassembled engine that had been partially repaired, chromed
cylinders, and powder coated cases. The major sections were never
disassembled. The engine was run without oil and needs, at the least, a
new main bearing and a new cam bearing. Since the cylinders were
chromed, the chrome rings that he has cannot be used. He failed to ship
the engine to me, as agreed, after receiving payment. The serial number
is KR611027 and can be found on the nose case data plate and the power
section case.
Should you hear anything about this engine, please notify me. I will,
along with calling the police, provide a reward when this engine is in
my possession.
Thank you for the help!

Yak-Meisters,
I'm looking for a set of Yak-55 gills in new or very good condition.
If you have a set, let's talk.
Thanks!

--> Yak-List message posted by: "Frank Haertlein" <yak52driver@earthlink.net>
One thing I really like about the list....... If you're a crook you
won't last long in this community :) I'm not sayin' the guy Jill told us
about is a crook but it will give me something to watch out for.
Speaking of engines. I don't know a whole lot about the internals of my
M14 in the accessory case department but as some of you know my timing
has changed since the last time it was checked. I don't mean changed
just a little bit but allot. I'm beginning to think I may have timed it
wrong the first time (I did it by the book and it ran fine) or that
something has slipped in the accessory case.
The question to those of you that know the internals, is it possible
that something inside has slipped a gear inside the engine causing the
timing to get way out of whack?
Thanks in Advance

"Communism: Lousy Politics - Excellent Airplanes"
Subject: For those of you world travelers
To those of you who fly a lot, this may help you to "lighten up" the
next time the airlines of your choice causes you major aggravation!!
All too rarely, airline attendants make an effort to make the
in-flight "safety lecture" and announcements a bit more
entertaining. Here are some real examples that have been heard or
reported:
*****************************
On a Continental Flight with a very "senior" flight attendant crew,
the pilot said, "Ladies and gentlemen, we've reached cruising
altitude and will be turning down the cabin lights. This is for your
comfort and to enhance the appearance of your flight attendants."
*****************************
Heard on a Southwest Airline flight. "Ladies and gentlemen, if you
wish
to smoke, the smoking section on this airplane is on the wing and
if you can light 'em, you can smoke 'em."
**************************************************
On landing, the stewardess said, "Please be sure to take all of
your
belongings. If you're going to leave anything, please make sure
it's something we'd like to have."
*******************************
There may be 50 ways to leave your lover, but there are only 4 ways
out of this airplane"
****************************
"Thank you for flying Delta Business Express. We hope you enjoyed
giving us the business as much as we enjoyed taking you for a
ride."
*******************************
As the plane landed and was coming to a stop at Ronald Reagan, a
lone voice came over the loudspeaker: "Whoa, big fella. WHOA!"
********************************
After a particularly rough landing during thunderstorms in Memphis,
a flight attendant on a Northwest flight announced, "Please take
care when opening the overhead compartments because, after a landing
like that, sure as hell everything has shifted."
************************
From a Southwest Airlines employee: "Welcome aboard Southwest
Flight 245 to Tampa. To operate your seat belt, insert the metal tab
into the buckle, and pull tight. It works just like every other seat
belt; and, if you don't know how to operate one, you probably
shouldn't be out in public unsupervised."
*************************
"In the event of a sudden loss of cabin pressure, masks will
descend from the ceiling. Stop screaming, grab the mask, and pull it
over your face. If you have a small child traveling with you, secure
your mask before assisting with theirs. If you are traveling with
more than one small child, pick your favorite."
*************************
Weather at our destination is 50 degrees with some broken clouds,
but we'll try to have them fixed before we arrive. Thank you, and
remember, nobody loves you, or your money, more than Southwest
Airlines."
**************************
"Your seat cushions can be used for flotation; and, in the event of
an
emergency water landing, please paddle to shore and take them with
our compliments."
***********************
"As you exit the plane, make sure to gather all of your
belongings.
Anything left behind will be distributed evenly among the flight
attendants. Please do not leave children or spouses."
***********************
And from the pilot during his welcome message: "Delta Airlines is
pleased to have some of the best flight attendants in the industry.
Unfortunately, none of them are on this flight!"
***********************
Heard on Southwest Airlines just after a very hard landing in Salt
Lake City: The flight attendant came on the intercom and said, "That
was quite a bump, and I know what y'all are thinking. I'm here to
tell you it wasn't the airline's fault, it wasn't the pilot's fault,
it wasn't the flight
attendant's fault, it was the asphalt."
***********************
Overheard on an American Airlines flight into Amarillo, Texas, on a
particularly windy and bumpy day: During the final approach, the
Captain was really having to fight it. After an extremely hard
landing,
the Flight Attendant said, "Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to
Amarillo. Please remain in your seats with your seat belts fastened
while the Captain taxis what's left of our airplane to the gate!"
**********************
Another flight attendant's comment on a less than perfect landing:
"We
ask you to please remain seated as Captain Kangaroo bounces us to
the terminal."
**********************
An airline pilot wrote that on this particular flight he had
hammered his ship into the runway really hard. The airline had a
policy which required the first officer to stand at the door while
the passengers exited, smile, and give them a "Thanks for flying our
airline." He said that, in light of his bad landing, he had a hard
time looking the passengers in the eye, thinking that someone would
have a smart comment. Finally everyone had gotten off except for a
little old lady walking with a cane.
She said, "Sir, do you mind if I ask you a question?" "Why, no,
Ma'am,"
said the pilot. "What is it?" The little old lady said, "Did we
land, or
were we shot down?"
******************
After a real crusher of a landing in Phoenix, the attendant came on
the
horn, "Ladies and Gentlemen, please remain in your seats until
Capt. Crash and the Crew have brought the aircraft to a screeching
halt against the gate. And, once the tire smoke has cleared and the
warning bells are silenced, we'll open the door and you can pick
your way through the wreckage to the terminal."
******************
Part of a flight attendant's arrival announcement: "We'd like to
thank
you folks for flying with us today. And, the next time you get the
insane urge to go blasting through the skies in a pressurized metal
tube, we hope you'll think of US Airways."
***************
A plane was taking off from Kennedy Airport. After it reached a
comfortable cruising altitude, the Captain made an announcement over
the intercom, "Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking.
Welcome to Flight Number 293, nonstop from New York to Los Angeles.
The weather ahead is good and, therefore, we should have a smooth
and uneventful flight. Now sit back and relax... OH, MY GOD!"
Silence followed, and after a few minutes, the captain came back on
the intercom and said, "Ladies and Gentlemen, I am so sorry if I
scared you earlier. While I was talking to you, the flight attendant
accidentally
spilled a cup of hot coffee in my lap. You should see the front of
my pants!" A passenger in Coach yelled, "That's nothing. You should
see the back of mine!"

Subject: Yak-52 Tailcone Access Panel
I'm thinking of replacing the 10 screws in the tailcone access plate with 1/4 in.
aircraft quality SS camlocs. This would allow easy access to the elevator
bellcrank for inspection purposes. Are there any reasons, structural or otherwise,
why this would not be a good idea?

I apologize if this same message was previously posted. My ISP had mail server
problems over the weekend so I'm not sure if my original message went through.

When you see that many screws in a panel I would say it is a major
structural panel. I would not replace the screws! Jim A&P/IA

| Subject: | Magneto/Engine Timing Yak52 |
--> Yak-List message posted by: "Dennis Lenton" <lenton@waypt.com>
I have some questions on magneto and engine timing for you engine savvy
folks.
What is the gear ratio between the propeller and the engine?
What is the correct amount of advance for the magneto (M-9F), on an M14P
engine?
Where is it measured?
Prop flange or cylinder?
I have a Russian "time right" indicator and it currently indicates 30
deg BTDC on #4 cylinder, both mags.
Using the index marks on the prop flange I get 42 deg advance indicated
for the same condition.
The engine starts and runs well so things can't be too far off.
Thanks in advance
