    Subject: M14 Engines
    --> Yak-List message posted by: "Mark Jefferies" <mark.j@yakuk.com> I note with interest the work as reported in Richards mail below what's happening in Russia and would like to advise the facility we offer for M14P engine overhaul in Europe. The advantages of using a company that's governed by EU law are numerous. Saying that you will never have to revert to law!!. My web page at http://www.yakuk.com/M14P.asp Currently we overhaul 4 engines per month. M14P, PF and AI 14RA. These are sold on exchange basis therefore immediately available. Either ex works UK or Lithuania. Seasons greetings, Mark J --> Yak-List message posted by: "Richard Goode" <richard.goode@russianaeros.com> M14P Family of Engines I have recently returned from a trip to Russia, specifically looking at various aspects of our engine business. We are particularly interested in the supply of parts; the manufacture of engines from new parts, rather than 'old stock' but unused engines, as well as the situation with higher powered (450hp) variants. To learn more please click on the following link: http://www.russianaeros.com/Future for M14P engines.htm

    Subject: Yak V-530 Blades Wanted
    --> Yak-List message posted by: "Richard Goode" <richard.goode@russianaeros.com> In reply to Ira Sagligman's request for blades, certainly the problem in Europe is that we have lots of hubs and no blades. With ground-strikes/water penetration, we lose a lot of blades each year, but hubs are typically fine.=20 We for example have got eight or so hubs with no blades for them. Effectively, here anyway, a pair of blades is worth almost as much as a complete propeller!

Who is the idiot who ordered winter weather for the Southeastern United States? I will be departing at dawn tomorrow to fly up to Texas for Christmas, passing through FL. This weather is simply unacceptable. Fix it! BTW, there are two things I won't fly through: ice and thunderstorms, both of which are going to be sitting on my path across the FL panhandle, Louisiana, and eastern TX. Bah, humbug! <sigh> FWIW, it is almost 80F here in the VI. > Hmmm, now where did I put those sunglasses :) Well, you can use 'em down here!

    Subject: Electronic Ignition for Russian Radials Available
    --> Yak-List message posted by: "Jim Martyn" <vertigo@whidbey.net> Greetings Yak drivers, Over the past year I've been testing an experimental electronic ignition conversion for the M9 magneto, running on an Ivchenko AI-14R in a Wilga. The results have been quite favorable. We're planning to test this system on an M14 next. Assuming the same positive results, we plan to begin offering conversion kits for these engines with various features and options, such as: -Automatic Start Retard -User-selectable Timing Advance Curves -Rev-limiting - Boost Retard -Use Inexpensive Auto Sparkplugs (Bosch Platinum) Feel free to contact me directly for more information.

Does anyone know the best place to buy the Randolph butyrate dope,filler and thinner products I need. I see Randolph have been bought out but don't know of any west coast suppliers other than Aircraft Spruce. I can ship the chemicals via a friends container in Long Beach so somewhere near would be best.

    Subject: Yak 55 Hen's Teeth.
    --> Yak-List message posted by: "Ben Marsh" <ben@designselect.net> Greetings, Salutations, Hello! This is a message for a special group of folks with broken Yak 55s from a guy with a broken Yak 55. There are only a few of us. In the context of this discussion, the term "broken" refers to those unfortunate enough to have a '55 with the landing gear ripped out of the fuselage. This is broken, no? A month or so ago, I acquired a '55M that suffered an engine failure, coming to grief in a field where substantial damage was done to the front end of the fuselage, when the landing gear struts were torn out. The damage to my wreck includes the firewall, the gear box, the lower stringers, several formers and a couple other machined trinkets that provide structural integrity to the landing gear assembly. It was a bad day at the ranch. To make matters worse, these parts are not available for sale. This is why my wreck sat in a hanger for ten years before I got the bright idea to stand up and restore it. I am taking up the challenge of having these key parts C & C machined. If this sounds expensive, that's because it is expensive! However, doing so is the only way my airplane will fly again. The truth of the matter is that I am not the only 55 guy in the world with this problem. As well, without these parts, 55s and perhaps 54s that suffer the aforementioned "bad day at the ranch" are just about worthless junk. For those of us that would like to breath life back into an otherwise good airplane, I am here to help. Within six weeks, I will be able to supply most of the key machined parts that will be damaged in such a crash, certainly in the model 55 and perhaps in the '54. Thus, if any of you good people know of anyone else that might have a need for these parts, please let me know. My intent is not to soak anyone. Indeed, I would be happy to simply reduce my R & D costs. And, if a couple more 55s come back to like, that would be an outstanding result! Regards, Ben Marsh
