Just got home from the West Coast in my new R-44 and am re-hooked on helicopters. There is NOTHING like seeing the US from 500 feet (give or take 400). I did 12 hours in the air on Saturday and loved every minute of it. Missoula MT to Minneapolis in one day! Took almost as long the day before from Portland to Missoula (my built in headwind). Anyway, I need room in the hangar so the Yak's gotta go. If you, or anyone you know wants an old, pre-stiffened spar model Yak 50 let me know off list. It will go reasonably priced. Only 100 SMOH, in annual, 375 TTSN. 77 model. Some will tell you it shouldn't be used for anything but static display without the Spar mod as this early model was known to have wings separate at as little as 14 G's. So if you are a real macho pilot, this one just won't do. But, if like me, 4 or 5 G's is all your old body can handle, I think this is one cool looking warbird wannabe for very little cost and will safely get you into and out of most dogfights without the wings falling off in the air. Call if interested.

At the time (just before Oshkosh) he was doing flight testing and oil cooler mods with the Rosco-Turner Replica. He's been out flying his YAK-3 off and on and been doing some flying with the Rosco-Turner in recent weeks. I think it's still sitting in his hanger waiting for when he has time to concentrate on it again. But then this is only a guess on my part.

Increase in HP will increase thrust but something less than 20%. Also this increased thrust will not likely be uniform over the power curve. Taking both into account, your brakes may have hold a bit more, but not likely near 20%.

I replace the primer seal- ho effect. I took prim pump a parts, it was same rust on the transfer valve, I clean it, clean intake nozzle with WD-40, put it together, installed it start working. I pump 0.5 Atm, and I found other problem- rubber hose, between carburetor and fine full filter, are leaking. Leak by the fine filter, under connection between hose and fittings. Is it possible to reattach the hose to it fitting? Or easer to by new one? Thanks for advise.

This happen to me once, when a friend noticed fuel spraying from under my cowling during my starting procedure. It is best to replace the hose. I found that you can reuse the fittings that is on the hose and buy a US manufactured hose that is very near the same sizes. You may even beadle to get metric hoses from some of the suppliers on this list.

For the price and aggravation I have purchased hoses from Carl W. Hayes Enterprises and Gesoco and have been pleased with both. Without the correct mandrel (which you can purchase also) again it is very difficult to make up hoses. The original fittings on my YAK 52 I finally soaked in paint stripper before I could finally clean up the fittings.

This will cause a weakened push into the uplocks. A kind of "snubbing" to the system. Unfortunately, any one or more of the shuttle valves could be the culprit. I've had a gear leg hang down because of this as well as the mentioned failure to lock in the up position. A good practice is to replace all of the shuttles every three or four years and keep them lubricated!........John "oily gear handle" Finley ________________________________ Message 13 ____________________________________ Time: 01:56:05 PM PST US From: "Mark Jefferies YAK UK Ltd" Subject: Re: Yak-List: terror in the skies --> Yak-List message posted by: "Mark Jefferies YAK UK Ltd" The kit Walt is referring to is Bu 079, we are in the process of supplying one to a USA owner at this time.
