    Subject: Official Usage Guideline [Please Read] [Monthly Posting]
    DNA: do not archive --> Yak-List message posted by: Matt Dralle <dralle@matronics.com> Dear Lister, Please read over the Yak-List Usage Guidelines below. The complete Yak-List FAQ including these Usage Guidelines can be found at the following URL: http://www.matronics.com/FAQs/Yak-List.FAQ.html Thank you, Matt Dralle Matronics Email List Administrator ****************************************************************************** Yak-List Usage Guidelines ****************************************************************************** The following details the official Usage Guidelines for the Yak-List. You are encouraged to read it carefully, and to abide by the rules therein. Failure to use the Yak-List in the manner described below may result in the removal of the subscribers from the List. Yak-List Policy Statement The purpose of the Yak-List is to provide a forum of discussion for things related to this particular discussion group. The List's goals are to serve as an information resource to its members; to deliver high-quality content; to provide moral support; to foster camaraderie among its members; and to support safe operation. Reaching these goals requires the participation and cooperation of each and every member of the List. To this end, the following guidelines have been established: - Please keep all posts related to the List at some level. Do not submit posts concerning computer viruses, urban legends, random humor, long lost buddies' phone numbers, etc. etc. - THINK carefully before you write. Ask yourself if your post will be relevant to everyone. If you have to wonder about that, DON'T send it. - Remember that your post will be included for posterity in an archive that is growing in size at an extraordinary rate. Try to be concise and terse in your posts. Avoid overly wordy and lengthy posts and responses. - Keep your signature brief. Please include your name, email address, aircraft type/tail number, and geographic location. A short line about where you are in the building process is also nice. Avoid bulky signatures with character graphics; they consume unnecessary space in the archive. - DON'T post requests to the List for information when that info is easily obtainable from other widely available sources. Consult the web page or FAQ first. - If you want to respond to a post, DO keep the "Subject:" line of your response the same as that of the original post. This makes it easy to find threads in the archive. - When responding, NEVER quote the *entire* original post in your response. DO use lines from the original post to help "tune in" the reader to the topic at hand, but be selective. The impact that quoting the entire original post has on the size of the archive can not be overstated! - When the poster asks you to respond to him/her personally, DO NOT then go ahead and reply to the List. Be aware that clicking the "reply" button on your mail package does not necessarily send your response to the original poster. You might have to actively address your response with the original poster's email address. - DO NOT use the List to respond to a post unless you have something to add that is relevant and has a broad appeal. "Way to go!", "I agree", and "Congratulations" are all responses that are better sent to the original poster directly, rather than to the List at large. - When responding to others' posts, avoid the feeling that you need to comment on every last point in their posts, unless you can truly contribute something valuable. - Feel free to disagree with other viewpoints, BUT keep your tone polite and respectful. Don't make snide comments, personally attack other listers, or take the moral high ground on an obviously controversial issue. This will only cause a pointless debate that will hurt feelings, waste bandwidth and resolve nothing. ------- [This is an automated posting.]

    Subject: Re: Ignition conduits
    --> Yak-List message posted by: "Carl W Hays Enterprises" <yakparts@simplyweb.net> Tom & group, I have a stock of new #5, #6 front ignition conduits, as these are the ones that typically get damaged. They make a tighter bend close to the nut at the harness ring. I also carry other new and used conduits, wire, elbows, cigarettes, rubber insulators, etc. I sold out of my used #5 fronts and the remaining ones are damaged. Best regards, Jill Carl W.

    Subject: CJ fuel sump drain
    --> Yak-List message posted by: "Doug Sapp" <rvfltd@televar.com> Walt, There is a special Chinese tool for draining the sump but I have never been able to get one. The best thing to do with it is to remove the cap, throw away the guts, then press in a steel slug to fill the hole (weld it in place. Next chuck it up in a lathe and drill and tap the center to accept the "nail or wire" type quick drain so you can use the fuel sampling cup as used in many spam cans. Next locate the center of the drain on the Duzed on cover and drill a #20 hole in it. Now you can sample your fuel without opening the cover, just insert the nail/wire and press upward. You will also have to make a gasket to seal it properly. Or you can send it to me and I will do all the above for 65.00. And no I don't have one I can exchange because all of mine are out waiting for the exchanges to come back........guys?? There is a cast plate out there that is tapped for a quick drain but IMHO it does away with nearly 100% of your "sumping" ability and gives you no place for any water to lay.

Come on Doug - you were pissed, and not to be blamed for it either. Having known you for over 12 years when you first got into this business and watched what you have accomplished along with the associated gamble (not just with fickle A/C owners, but regulation changes), no one in their right mind should even bother re-inventing the friggin' wheel. In (and for) your case, you have "been there-done it" notwithstanding help from guys such as Joe, Walt and many others. Most people don't understand the "Cajons" you have placed on the block to get to this level - surely to God, those who want to complain would never consider it. Doug, you're allowed to be pissed and don't be so subtle trying to hide it, what with the Miniyak down due to fabric issues, your CJ down to Reg issues, you have been bumming rides for years 'cause of your hangar queens. Now you have to concentrate on you, (# 1), and get them in the air so you can go back to enjoying the thrills of flight in these great machines. Chin up ol' man, it's only a very few who don't know your real worth to this community - and you'll always have that!! Regards, Paul Dumoret ---------------------------------

    Subject: Re: Yak-List Digest: 6 Msgs - 06/01/04
    --> Yak-List message posted by: Jeffrey Scanes <jdscanes@yahoo.com> In regards to the Yak52 in a flat spin I strongly suggest that you only do this with an experienced (Yak) instructor. I received several hours training from Skytrace fly@skytrace.com who offer complete Yak training with correct & safe recovery from the flat spin. As Richard mentioned, this type of training is invaluable and highly recommended. I'll try and pass on to you what I learned from Genna at Skytrace, but please get the appropriate training before you try these maneuvers. With any spin always throttle back to idle - With an upright flat spin to the right PART of the standard recovery includes aileron into the spin (unike most other a/c). However, on recovery, usually after 2 full turns if in a fully developed flat spin, you will be heading vertically down and with full down elevator and right aileron and full left rudder. If you do not neutralize in time you will suddenly flick into an inverted flat spin. The inverted flat spin will viciously accelerate faster and faster on every turn, which is very disorientating and with increasing negative G trying to force you out the cockpit. Although inverted is easier to recover if you can identify the direction of rotation because the rudder is in the airflow and now far more responsive. Interestingly, with an upright flat spin the front cockpit ball will remain in the middle because the front cockpit is over the center of rotation, although the rear ball is way out. Safe flying.

Dennis Savarese) ________________________________ Message 1 _____________________________________ Time: 07:36:11 AM PST US From: "Richard Basiliere" Subject: Yak-List: RE: Yak 52 --> Yak-List message posted by: "Richard Basiliere" Sounds like you had a great time. Yup, the -52 winds up - -55 and Sukhoi also do. It's the power thing, inertia... They all (Russian -52, -55, Sukhoi) are totally honest. You ask them to go flat - they do - you ask for recovery - they do. Did you do the US or Russian recovery? The Sukhoi manual and when Azat worked with me tells you if you wish a faster recovery you fly INTO the spin and not against it - the ailerons connect and you fly away in less than a turn. Pretty impressive. Pulling power causes them to want to play "lawn dart", nose down and you cxan recover from there. There are probably as many different "tumble" entries as people doing them. I was taught three. Pull Up 45 degree - 90 roll to right knife edge - 230 kph - aggressively push left rudder and bury the stick in right forward corner and hold it there until tumbling stops and you are in - inverted flat accelerated spin - recover from that. Abracadabra I think he called that one. The left rudder and right forward stick will tumble from about any attitude. From a vertical - right forward stick and right rudder will get you Edelweiss. They start from outside flick. This is not to be misconstrued to be instruction or even suggestion to try any gyroscopic. Get the dual - and have a blast. Ask the Colorado Yak Pac, Azat and I tumbled with them at Lamar, CO a couple of years a go - they left giggling like school girls. Seriously, get the training, be safe, have fun. It took a full day of training inverted flat accelerated spin recoveries (on heading...) before Azat or Vladimir Radomsky would let me tumble. BTW, I just got done with 5 day camp with Nik Timofeev helping me with my Unlimited, others with Sportsman. Nik is out there (Ocala, FL) and is a great source for dual and/or critiquing. Judges told me after the Contest that I'm flying the best I ever have in Unlimited, thanks to Nik. Respectfully, Rick >>> yak52driver@earthlink.net 5/21/2004 4:53:17 PM >>> --> Yak-List message posted by: "Frank Haertlein" Yaksters; In talking about the right flat spin of the 52 all I can say is (in the immortal words of a fellow MIG pilot) is that it "really winds up". I got the very same impression when flying with Oleg. It really does "wind up". I got the distinct impression that I had to hold it in to keep it in the flat spin though the recovery did take a few turns. Anyone want to interject their impressions? Everything was happening so fast I couldn't really analyze what was going on except by using "seat of the pants" impressions. Every other spin recovery seemed conventional for me except that Oleg kept chastising me to slow down with the recovery...... "YAK-52 like fine woman, go slow and things work good".. Did anyone else have that impression? Another interesting aspect of his training was the "if everything goes haywire and you don't know what's upside down or rightside up, just pull off power, hold onto the canopy rails and wait" maneuver. Took me awhile to get used to that one but sure as hell the 52 found it's nose and pointed the way back, so to speak. Not sure it would do that from the flat spin though. Out of curiosity, does anyone know how he gets you into the Lomchevak? I think I know but since Oleg's spin entry was unusual for me I wonder if his Lomchevak entry is different as well? I saw him and George Lazic above the field tumbling around like crazy. Wished I would have thought to ask him to show me that maneuver.

    Subject: Re: Intermittent Tacho Generator
    --> Yak-List message posted by: Bitterlich GS11 Mark G <BitterlichMG@cherrypoint.usmc.mil> I have had this kind of problem tons of times on YAKS and SUKES. 9 times out of 10 it is a bad solder joint at the cannon plug that connects to the tach generator in the engine compartment. When you say "you checked the cannon plug" does that mean that you took it totally apart and gently tugged on each of the three wires when you had it apart to make SURE that the solder joint itself was intact? If you did not... and if you only "ohmed" the wires out... you can get sucked into thinking that they are all fine. What happens is that you bend the plug over to take a reading and then this makes a better connection and it works ok. Put it back onto a running and vibrating engine, and that is a totally different story. A real give-away that this is what is indeed happening is if your TACH starts reading BACKWARDS, I.E. you increase power and the dial pointer goes DOWN. That is typical with one of the three wires bad. It is very easy to remove the tach generator and hold it in your hands and spin it with an electric drill to check it's operation without the engine running. Something to keep in mind when you decide to test it. Lastly, pay particular attention to the SHIELD wire on the Tach Generator. If you want to experience "the noise from hell" over your radio.... break this shield wire bond to ground and watch what happens. Good Luck, Mark Bitterlich YAK-50 N50YK -----Original Message----- From: David Marsh [mailto:swampy@videotron.ca] Subject: Yak-List: Re: Intermittent Tacho Generator --> Yak-List message posted by: David Marsh <swampy@videotron.ca> Hello Folks. I'm in need of some armchair engineering. The tacho on my Yak 52 is intermittent. Sometimes it works flawlessly, other times it only starts working during my runup, or stops while I'm flying. Both gauges do the same, so it's not a gauge problem. I've checked the cannon plug and buzzed the wiring ; no apparent broken wires or faulty grounding. So what do I try next ? Remove the tacho and clean it ? Cheers, Dave.
