I think David was referring to the main air tank Walt.
"....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

Test pressure is generally 5/3 working pressure.
50 kg/cm2 approx = 725psi * 5/3 approx = 1200psi
Seems the bottles need to see 1200psi every 5 years.
I do not know if the Russian test standard is the same
as ours.

Well put, Bob. For those that missed my write up on it, I took 2 days
of training in the -52 from Yuri Yeltsov of Kazakhstan out here in
SoCal this past spring. I gained such a different level of
appreciation and understanding of the -52 than I had previous to the
training. I, like many, was intimidated by the stories floating about
that the -52 can kill you without proper spin training. Yeah, well,
driving a car can kill you too, you just need to know the rules of the
road to be safe. Same thing with the -52. It is a sweet, honest
airplane, but it does have a few "different" reactions...very
predictable, but different. The CJ is more docile, but I'd sure hate
for someone's first uncoordinated stall to be in the traffic pattern at
an uncontrolled airport, turning base to final when you get a
windscreen full of airplane...
I'll also add that departure from controlled flight can happen in
formation, or even in the traffic pattern at your local airport, as I
just mentioned. There is no reason to not get *at least* spin training
in our aircraft. It's fun, it's a great value, and some day it could
make more of a difference than we care to think about.
If I'm at OSH, I'm going up with Sergei...does he provide oil rags?

Gang,
There is this incredible tape called Atomic Tape. "Atomic Tape is self
bonding, air tight, water tight, withstands 700 psi, resists 500
degrees F, and insulates 8,000 volts." I bought some at OSH last year
and the stuff is truly amazing. It is the perfect temporary solution
for air leaks on the road, etc. I highly recommend it for your
maintenance travel kit....
It has a gazillion other uses too...

Barry,
The RV would be a good deal if 2-4 guys split the cost. Contact me off list
to discuss details.
The aerobatic box can be activated any day during the week. I talked to the
MKE FSDO on Friday and they assure me it will be ok'd in time. They have
known about it for 3 mos. and had the paperwork for 2 mos. and they
approved a duplicate application for the June 5-6 MTW airshow - so I have to
believe I will hear about the final OK this week.

The fire department has literally dozens of bottles (both SCBA and SCUBA,
and Oxygen) and we cycle them through hydrostatic tests all the time. 5
years for steel and aluminum, and 3 years for graphite. No place that I
have seen in my 26 years of hydrostatically testing bottles would even think
of doing a hydro on a rusty bottle. They "tumble clean it" with rocks or
something and when it is free of rust then they test it to see if it will
still pass. Yes, they are all tested to 5/3 their working pressure. I
don't know the amount of acceptable stretch - next time I bring some to
Denver to test I'll ask.
Respectfully, Rick

Thanks for the insight, Dick and others. I spoke and visited with a few firefighters
and they were sympathetic to my needs but correctly directed me to the facility
that tests their stuff here in town and that's where I hit a stone wall. Can you
think of
other pressure tanks, perhaps from a more industrial application that routinely
need
testing other than SCBA etc., whose application may be able to lead me to a test
facility
for my Housai tank? The rust is not heavy, minimal I'd say and perhaps a little
tumbling
might get the job done. I've bought an real nice 22 cu. ft. Catalina tank from
Evergreen
MidWest and now, combined with the oil tank way up in my pointy front end it is
causing
space problems. Besides..that Housai tank is so funky looking anyway, I'd hate
to not
use the little bugger. Worst case, it'll wind up on my mantel in the office. Thanks..

Didn't they give the Coast Guard permission to sink ships under the control
of suspected terrorists when the gave the Air Force permission to shoot down
airliners? They may have to correct that oversight in Patriot Act II.
To the point at hand:
What on earth were you thinking when you ask the FAA if you could fly? They
are against it. Always.
As to the "densely populated area" thing consult EAA. Short version- Yes it
says that, no it doesn't mean what it says.
Longer version- EAA has argued (and claims to have won) the point on a
legal technicality, i.e. FAR 1 has no definition of "congested area"
therefore you can't be possible be flying over one.

Yakkers,
This one's for the archive.
For the 52..............
If you need a hose that goes from the louver air intake to the top of
the heat muff then NAPA Pre-Heater Hose part No. 813-1368 works like a
charm.
Also, if you need an exhaust gasket and you're in an emergency and you
need to get home, then Fel-Pro part No. 60566 works great. This is a
"crushable" gasket, stands up to the heat and conforms to mating
surfaces that may be a little out of spec. I've had one on my No. 2
cylinder for over 40 hours and it's still holding.

The problem you will likely encounter is that the hydro facilities won't
test a bottle unless they have the DOT specs for it. In the US, hydrostatic
testing is required by Dept of Transportation regs. The Chinese bottle
isn't built to any North American standards, so most shops won't test them.
Try arguing that you don't want it certified, only tested to see if it blows
up. This usually won't work, but sometimes it will. Look in the yellow
pages for hydrostatic testing or ask a welding shop or fire extinguisher
company who does their testing.
Last resort- you can do it yourself. Use water, not a gas, and dry it
thoroughly in a 250 degree F oven afterwards.

RPA members,
I've been very busy this month with company flying and preparing for a new
side job, but I updated the web site, and tested online registration,
everything appeared 100% stable - if you are attending any events, even if
it's a "maybe", I've had the planners ask me to press upon all to register
online.
It requires no online payment and helps these folks a great deal.
If you would like to serve on the Board of Directors of the RPA please send
me a short bio. We will conduct an election this month....
Anyone know of a great aircraft paint shop around the Texas or Florida area
with experience in our paint styles (full metal jacket -terrorist

Thanks,

Intrepid Aviators All,
Sergei Boriak is scheduled to be available to provide aerobatic training at
MTW for 3 days: July 26,27,28 (Mon, Tues, Wed).
I've had 4 pilots contact me about training with Sergei so far. We are now
ready to set up Sergei's schedule All interested pilots, including the ones who
have already emailed expressing interest, please contact me, off list, to set
up your schedule. You can schedule an entire day to yourself, or split the day
into multiple-pilot sessions. The rate schedule is as follows:
1 pilot, all day = $350.00, plus expenses
2 pilots, all day = $450.00 split by the 2 pilots, plus expenses
3 or more pilots, all day = $550.00 split by the number of pilots, plus
expenses
The expenses will be Sergei's airfare, car rental, hotel, food, and possibly
$150.00 for a travel day. The expenses would be split proportionately by the
participating pilots.
Please contact me off list to schedule your training.
Regards,
Mike Filucci

Jay;
I think I posted that about two years ago....maybe more. One nice thing
is that they realize the tank isn't built to any know US standard so
they use a formula for pressure testing based on the operating pressure
of the tank. They wont certify your tank but at least they'll tell you
if it's safe or not. If you send them your tanks you need to state the
operating pressure (750 Psi) so they can apply their formula. They also
send you a printout of tank stretch and if it's too much they'll tell
you so.

Remember to fill the air bottle with water. If you use air, you will have a
bomb. I used an old metric fitting that would fit the bottle. Then drilled
the center and tapped it to US 1/8 pipe thread so it would fit my
compressor.

Test pressure is generally 5/3 working pressure.
50 kg/cm2 approx = 725psi * 5/3 approx = 1200psi Seems the bottles need to
see 1200psi every 5 years.
I do not know if the Russian test standard is the same as ours.
