You need a "circuit" to automatically inflate and deflate them as the G comes and
goes. That strikes me as a rather complex piece of equipment to add to an
airplane with a 6-G limit.
But it would be cool and completely in keeping with the philosophy of "Macho Flight
Wear at all costs"!

There is a time to laud one's country and a time to protest.
A good citizen is prepared to do either as the need arises.

Did you subscribe to the service or did you receive unsolicited email? They may
be the best company in the world and offer a great service but they have committed
the sin of *sending* SPAM. This is like the LD telcos "slamming". They
may have great rates but I won't put up with the unethical marketing. If the
marketing works, they will keep using it vis-a-vis telemarketing.

It sounds like fun. I do miss my CJ/Yak flying.

Yes, it certainly *IS* a problem. The only real question is whther it is all the
problem. There is a reason that airplanes have shielded ignition systems.

Try unplugging the microphone(s) and see if the problem goes away. Most microphones
just pick up too much noise for most intercoms.

Tom,
Some folks have been running automotive plugs for years in
their Yaks. The trick is to use an EMI/RMI protected system.
That means Resistor spark plugs and Magnecor wire. If you
still have your wiring harness then you are limited to using
7mm size rather than the racing 8.5mm or 10mm wire.
Use one of the fine wire Platinum or Iridium racing plugs
such as the Lightspeed setup for the Continental
0-200/0-240. No fouling, long life, cheap and no shielded
harness required.

| Subject: | Oil and Rudder Cable Questions |
--> Yak-List message posted by: "Dennis Von Ruden" <dvonruden@generalequip.com>
I am almost ready to start my CJ after a long restoration process. Have
the following questions for comments:
1) I plan to use Phillips 25W60 oil in the engine. The engine has
approximately 600 hours total time and 0 since a Chinese factory
overhaul. I do not know the specific work performed during the overhaul,
except that the engine looks brand new. I am very aware of the detergent
versus nondetergent oil protocol for seating the rings. From talking
with people and the printed material in the field, I feel the 25W60
should be very acceptable both now and into the future. Comments?
2) I have not been able to determine a specific value for the rudder
cable tension from the maintenance manual or any other printed
materials. Does anyone have any information on this?
Thanks for your help.

Dennis
I was using Phillips 20W50, but it runs out of the Engine, I use Aero shell
100W, I would just to be safe run 100 Mineral oil for the 1st 50 hours then
switch to 100W, I know there is allot of comments about this, but for me I
would rather play safe, all Shell Oils are compatible with each other so you
could switch after 50 hours and not drain it if you wanted to. The Rudder
tension will be about 50 lbs, use the cable tension guide in the U.S
maintenance books for size and Temperature, it will come out to about 50lbs.

--> Yak-List message posted by: "Frank Haertlein" <yak52driver@earthlink.net>
Yaksters,
If you have a YAK-52 I'm going to suggest a procedure you should ingrain
in your head.
Please, ingrain it in your head guys......trust me. I didn't have this
as habit and it bit me.
When you're landing and you lower your gear, flip the "gate" lever to
the right.
This should be ingrained into your head.....anytime the gear lever is
put in the down position you NEED to flip the "gate" button to the
right.
Are you LISTENING out there? Knock, knock, knock.....Flip that friggin
"gate" lever to the right when you lower the landing gear...........
It's simple......
Gear comes down, "gate" lever goes to the right.
Gear comes down, "gate" lever goes to the right.
Gear comes down, "gate" lever goes to the right.
Gear comes down, "gate" lever goes to the right.

Just in case you don't understand.....

Frank,
Can we draw from this that your propeller is now several inches shorter and
that you are in the market for a new tail skid ?
If so I am very sorry to hear about your misfortune and point well taken.
