    --> Yak-List message posted by: Aubrey Price <aprice@vartec.net> See text below. That's for the comments. My partner and I have sent a lot of time on this. -----Original Message----- From: Bill Halverson [mailto:william@netpros.net <mailto:william@netpros.net> ] Subject: Painting questions Hi Aubrey - Great looking job! And thanks for the work to get those pics up for us all ... but as you can imagine, they may induce some of us to send questions your way ... so if there are a lot, just roll the answers up into one posting back to the list? Anyway, here are mine: 1. I notice what look like scratches in the anti-corrosion coating in one pic of the stripped fuselage ... is that what it is and if so how did you deal with it? The pictures are deceiving. There were very few scratches, but to cover those, we shot the whole plane with a filler primer, sanded, and then put epoxy primer over that. 2. I noticed the yellow color of the interior parts of the wings and fuselage ... did you do any touch up painting on those areas? If you mean under the fairings, we did shoot the gray primer over that. 3. Did you remove the old paint and repaint the control surfaces after you took the covering off? Your thoughts on this appreciated ... No. The zinc Chromate primer was in great shape. We did sand everything. Our plane had Russian fabric. We removed all coverings and recovered with the heavy Stitts War Bird Poly Fiber. I am not through with the covers. 4. Was thought given to removing the plexi glass to get all the old paint of the frames? We are going to replace the plexi glass next year. For now, we are wet sanding the glass with 600, 1200, 1500, high cut rubbing compound, polishing compound, and then swirl remover compound. Lots of work, but the if we didn't have grazing, you couldn't tell they weren't new. 5. The foam in the tail ... is that SOP or ... ? That is a Carl Hayes mod. The prop wash causes the fabric to drum on the tail. Over time, the rib stitches will fail if you do a lot of aerobatics. The foam allows both sides of the fabric to be held firmly in place. What you don't see is a rib stitch that goes from one side of the tail, through the foam and tried on the other side of the tail. There is one of these in each bay. Thanks again for your comments!

Here's the diagnosis. All valves were within tolerance except for the number 3 and 7 cylinder exhaust valves. The tolerances were tight....that is the #3 measured .275mm and the #7 measured .280mm. Not sure if this could cause the rough running engine in high altitude cold air I wrote about earlier. A compression check afterwards showed normal and close to previous measurements. I used the spec of .3mm +.15 -.1 A word of advice here, misadjusted valves could cause them to burn. Used the silicone valve cover gaskets supplied by Doug Sapp and must say they work great. Promises to stop any oil leaks from that area. This brings up a question; How are the rockers lubed? I can see the downward pointing cylinders were getting lots of oil but the upward pointing cylinders seems to not get enough. Anyone care to elaborate? Also, would it be beneficial if I modified my valve covers so that all are connected together with rubber hose? Seems that some say this will aid oiling or scavenging but I'm not entirely convinced.

    Subject: Re: Valve Clearance
    --> Yak-List message posted by: "A. Dennis Savarese" <adsavar@gte.net> A word of caution for those that think they want to/have to remove and replace a valve lifter or tappet as it is sometimes called. I learned this the hard way. It can not be done externally by simply removing the pushrod tube and rubber hose assembly and pulling the tappet assembly out. If you attempt to do this, the roller that rolls on the cam disc at the bottom of the valve lifter assembly is wider than the hole in the case. It is also held in place by the outer sleeve of the valve lifter assembly. When you pull the mechanism outward from the case, the sleeve exposes the roller and depending on the angle of the valve lifter assembly, the roller most likely will fall to the inside of the nose case. Now you REALLY have a problem. So don't try removing a tappet assembly or lifting it outward from it's mounting point. As I said, I learned the hard way.

    Subject: Fuel tank repair / air tank test
    --> Yak-List message posted by: "David Stroud" <davestroud@rogers.com> Good morning Aubrey. That's a pretty nice set of photos you have on your site and I'm interested to hear a bit more about a couple of points when you have time, please. First..can you describe the process of the fuel tank repair up to ready for install ? Secondly, the air tank test. I looked inside mine and found some rust..no much but signs of some. I haven't pressure tested it yet but was advised by some that if rust is present, dump the tank for a new one. Any rules or advice on that one? Is 1,200 lbs the standard rule for testing the tank? Thanks.. David Stroud, Ottawa, Canada Christavia C-FDWS Fairchild 51 early construction

    --> Yak-List message posted by: Bob Fitzpatrick <rmfitz@direcway.com> I'm one of those who consider this training money well spent and frankly I'm surprised more members haven't taken advantage of it. Some people have told me they don't need "that level" of instruction. What level do you need? I don't train for competition or airshows, I train because I'm a klutz flying aerobatics in a unique airplane and need all the help I can get. There are plenty of acro instructors out there, but how many have Yak experience? Here is the best help you can get at any price without the hassle of travel and scheduling problems. Unless you use your Yak for cross country transportation ( you bought the wrong airplane) someday you, too, will botch a maneuver. At that point your training will be priceless. bob 52BN PS: @ MTW last 2 yrs Sergei has cost us about $100/hr. ----- Original Message ----- From: <MFilucci@aol.com> Subject: Yak-List: MTW aerobatic training > --> Yak-List message posted by: MFilucci@aol.com > > Intrepid aviators, > > I have heard a rumor that someone has lined up a Russian aerobatic > instructor for Manitowoc but have not been able to determine if it is fact or fiction. > Does anyone have any info? > > If there is no instructor in waiting, we may be able to recruit Sergei > Boriak again this year -- if there is interest in having him back.

My suggestion is that if we do get the RV spot at OSH (I'm in if I go, which I should know by next week...) there should be a 5 o'clock social hour at the RV. Also, it should be stocked with water, etc. (put out a donation bucket). The other big thing to have is chairs. I don't know if we can rent them with the RV, but well worth it to have a place for guys to sit. We can also have a mulit-media debrief of the days flying there as well, if we can get a TV. I'm still hoping to go, but things are happening with the jets and I may well be in Romania that week... Also, when is the aerobatics box set up for? Cheers, Barry

    Subject: On board spares
    --> Yak-List message posted by: Barry Hancock <radialpower@cox.net> Guys, In addition to the other suggestions.... It is also useful to carry specialty tools like the 11mm crow's foot, etc. If you need to change a compressor in the field, etc., this is nice to have (will save you HOURS of work). I also like to carry extra indicator lights, a handheld comm., a few rocker cover wires, and of course, duct tape! You won't believe what duct tape and a Pepsi can will do to get you out of a jam! :) A first aid kit is also a good idea... Barry

    --> Yak-List message posted by: "Walt Lannon" <wlannon@cablerocket.com> David; Rust implies a steel tank. Not a good choice for an aircraft fuel tank, contamination problems will continue. Test pressure maximum is TWO lbs/sq/in. You would never see 1200 psi, it would have exploded long before that. Remember this is PSI - so 2 X the internal surface area equals what? maybe 3000 lbs?

    Subject: Swamp Dragon meeting
    --> Yak-List message posted by: "Terry" <talew@comcast.net> Most Magnificent Comrade General "pappy" Goolsby, I to would like to submit an after action report. I flamed a 1 P 28 on the east side of the lake and claim a probable Cessna near Lantana. The discussions on AMC and aerobatic training will go unmentioned for now as there was no interest shown other than by the attendees present. I must give a pass on Gary and Sam as I know for sure they were prevented from going by circumstance beyond their control. I imagine that others had a similar problem. The weather was great, The food was good. Lets do it again! Most Magnificent Comrade General Terry Lewis

    Subject: Re: SPAM
    --> Yak-List message posted by: Roy Wright <roy@wright.org> The major hole that spammers exploit is that sending e-mail is effectively anonymous, i.e., there originally was no method to verify the return path. Sender Policy Framework (SPF) takes aim at the practice of return-path spoofing. Basically domain administrators publish SPF records in the DNS. Those records describe the servers the domain uses for outbound mail. Then, they are read by SPF-enabled MTAs. Mail coming from a server not described in SPF can be considered forged. In every antispam future discussed, sender authentication is the first and fundamental step. Now, many possible sender authentication models are available, but the designated-sender scheme that SPF provides is probably the easiest to implement.
