    Subject: Engine
    --> Yak-List message posted by: "jay reiter" <jmreiter@adelphia.net> I have just purchased a used engine and am studying the illustrated parts book again. Is the crankcase pressurization and oil leak caused by the supercharger, referring to the sleeve and split ring type seal on the impeller shaft? What gears are changed to change the drive ratio of the impeller?

    ----Hope you did not miss it !!!!!!! --> Yak-List message posted by: "Ernie" <ernest.martinez@oracle.com> I watched last night, but thought that was just a preview. It showed some ACM in 52's and some Mig-21 fly-by's. I thought the entire hour was devoted to Red Star and was expecting to see more tonight. Good footage either way.... you guys have way too much fun on the left coast.

    Subject: Yak acro training
    --> Yak-List message posted by: HodgeJW@aol.com Hey List, I just bought a Yak 52 and am looking for a qualified instructor somewhere in the Ohio Indiana Kentucky area. I have flown acro for a few years, done a contest or two, and fly a buddies Pitts semi-frequently, so I'm not a COMPLETE newbie, but I don't know a thing about acro in a Yak and have heard all the horror stories. I keep hearing the same names over and over, like Segei Boriak and Vladimere Radomoski. Do you guys know where these guy are based or how to get in touch with them? Thanks. Jay Hodge

    Subject: Re: Yak acro training
    --> Yak-List message posted by: "WSC/Herb Coussons" <drc@wscare.com> I flew with Sergei Boriak this summer at MTW and really enjoyed it. He is very capable and will teach you alot in a short period of time. He will fly as much as you can stand and he knows the Yak well. I would highly recommend him. He lives in Fairfax, Va. I have his cell phone number filed away at home - I will try to email you directly. Otherwise you can check the Fairfax directory assist for a home number.

(Must have missed it in my last PDA Hot Sync)Please don't get me wrong... I have met and talked at length with Sergei as he worked with friends in TUS. I would fly and train with him in a heartbeat - the opportunity has not availed itself...yet. Sergei is great and all the people he has worked with (Unlimited in TUS) love him, that I know of.

    Subject: Aeros
    --> Yak-List message posted by: "Jorgen Nielsen" <jorgen.nielsen@mweb.co.za> BTW folks, with all the events I just realised there has not been a mention of the recent world champs held in Sweden. I have a personal reason for bringing it up - it was won by Glen Dell from South Africa. We are all understandably very pleased and proud of this, and hope it will help aerobatic flying here is SA by way of interest, sponsorship etc., which is sadly lacking to say the least. In the aerobatic vein but not Yak related, Glen is also involved in developing a new aerobatic aircraft here called a Slick 360 - the prototype flys really well, good roll rate, very good climb, etc. etc. We flew formo back from a practice session about 6 weeks ago (myself & a friend in my 52 & Glen in the Slick), nearing our home base we split to join a busy pattern, he opened up and just accelerated away & disappeared. On 200HP. Makes me want to cut a few feet off each wing on the Yak. Jorgen

    Subject: Yak 55M - low prop tip ground clearance
    --> Yak-List message posted by: "Royden Heays" <heaysr@telus.net> The gear on my Yak 55M is spread a little, to the extent that the static ground clearance to the Russian 2 bladed prop is only 14 inches. That prop is 240 cm dia. The book static ground clearance is stated to be 16.1". I think there are 2 reasons for the reduced clearance. 1 The USA tires (on Russian rims) are rated to 30 psi max, whereas the book value for tire pressure on Russian tires is between 37 to 47 psi (from memory). The higher pressure makes the aircraft stand taller and improves the ground clearance. 2 Viewed from the front the wheels are splayed indicating that the titanium gear has been sprung a little. Does anybody have a fix for this? One thought is shimming the gear at upper attach point. Another is to put in vertical wedges in where the wheel assembly bolts onto the gear in the same way that horizontal wedges are used to control toe in. The long term aim is to replace the 2 blade V-period prop for a 3 blade MT (250 cm to 260 cm) or Whirlwind prop (256 cm) but that will not leave a comfortable ground clearance, without gear extenders.
