Hmmm, what I'm NOT seeing in these posts is reference to the
difference between Huosai solid studs and the hollow M-14P
studs. In theory, the "half-hollow" Russian studs allow some
amount of distortion in the stud itself to compensate for
temperature differences as well as "flex' under torque to
hold better.
This worked for my original Huosai engine when I replaced
the loose studs with the Russian ones. Not cheap, but then
pulling off the barrels isn't a really fun to do in a cold
hanger at night. (I had a day job then).

OTOH, pure FAST training events are now Regionalized within
the RPA. Your local coordinator should be putting programs
together. Here in the SE Region, we start the year with a
session at Waycross GA. There are no distractions, there
ain't no nut'n there but BBQ and Swamp. Sometimes the BBQ
comes from the swamp.
Additionally, small focused sessions are held within a local
area, with only 4-6 airplanes to pack as much training into
a Sat/Sun as possible. Sometimes this works best, let the
trainers come to you. Just be a "good" host.

Richard,
You are forgetting one thing, we are talking about China. Few things are as
they seem on the surface, nothing that is asked is solely asked for the
reason indicated. After dealing with the Chinese vendors, CATIC and others
for many years I can only surmise that they may be pointed in a slightly
different direction than the one indicated, the questions just don't seem to
be the questions one would expect if US type certification were the goal.
Maybe they simply want to see exactly how many CJ driver that there really
are in the US and what their contact info is. But it would seem easier to
get that info from the FAA roles, where all but email info is available to
all who want to take the time to look it up. You also have to understand
that the Chinese are great copiers, and having a total list of all mods,
which we have come up with would enable them to better know what the bulk of
us may want to see on the new airframes which Fan wants to sell us, it also
prevents them from having to come up with the ideas them selves. It has been
my experience that certification (if there ever were any, I like Walt am not
holding my breath) most likely would not be retroactive, but would start at
fixed point in the serial number run and would most likely start with
aircraft still residing at the factory and not with those aircraft
previously imported. My personal opinion is that I for one do not want my
CJ to be certified, I want to be able to modify it without having to pay
through the nose for STC's, AI inspections and FAA red tape. I full well
know the agony of trying to change something on my Super Cub, Bonanza, and
other certified aircraft which I have owned over the years. Clean kits, oil
shutoffs, aux fuel, baggage, canopies, oil filters, Cleveland nose wheels,
heck even strobes would all have to be STC'd for use on the CJ if it were a
certified aircraft. The cost of a new airframe is already too high to allow
much if any profit to the importer after ocean freight, insurance, inland
trucking, customs and production headaches. Even if I purchase from one the
two organizations that are selling the new airframes (other than Fan who
works for Eaglet/CATIC), the price while lower than CATIC's price is still
very high and certification would only increase the cost not lower it. I am
sure there is an argument that says that a certified CJ would be worth more
because it would not have the flight restrictions, but I simply don't see
the restrictions (as they are now) as that big of a problem. We have a good
thing going the way it is now, can you imagine having to deal with the feds
when you want to add smoke, baggage compartment or the other goodies we all
want for out aircraft?? So, no I'll not answer the questionnaire because I
really don't have any interest in a certified aircraft, and I am tired of
feeding them modification ideas as they have already knocked off my aux fuel
tanks.
The above is just my 2 cents worth and as Brian said long ago "your mileage
may vary"
Last notice to all that may need something before I leave for China......I
leave on the 3rd and will return on the 20th. After the 3rd you can call
and leave a message, but my favorite GIB, Kathleen is coming with me this
year so there will be no one minding the store. We will check our messages
every other day. Best to all,
Doug and Kathleen are (pretty soon) gone yakin!

CJ-6 Questionnaire
Since we in Europe do not have the fantastic advantages of a "experimental"
system, I have been forced to become somewhat of an expert in the whole
issue of certification.
I really cannot see how the reports of, even hundreds, of satisfied users
would help proper certification to FAR 23 standard! Or have I missed
something?
Best regards

Tom,
WRT your comment about newbie training, as the NE Regional Coordinator of
the Redstar Pilot's Association, I highly suggest that you look into participating
in one of the regional FAST clinics. These events are tons of fun and are
really packed with loads of training geared to the brand new participant all
the way up to leader workshops for the crusty old guys like Craig (no offense
;-) his words, not mine.... ). At the events that I host in DE we provide everything
from beginners ground school to mass formation work to keep everyone at
all levels excited and progressing. We just hosted an event for the YAK a couple
of weeks ago, which was a qualified success (problems with rainy weather)
and are about to host an event for the L-39 guys in Nov. I know that the All
Redstar event in Merced is very popular and that Drew puts a lot of energy into
making sure that lots of training gets done. If you have questions, feel free
to call me or any of the regional coordinators to get more info.

The only Regionalized events that I have seen since All Redstar 2004 in the
South west are for ACM only, specifically excluding FNG's? If there are others
I have not
seen them mentioned on this list.

You need to speak to George Coy. He has figured out how to dismantle the
body from the wings. Traditionally the wings detach where the dihedral
starts. This is fine but it means that it has to ship in an open container,
not the best.
You may have to fly it to his facility to get the strip down done. Best bit
is that when it gets here he can put it together for you. Also he is a DAR
so can handle the registration for you.
