Ernie was onto something with his comment about the low turn out of non-RPA warbirds
at OSH. I just read the Emergency AD on the T-6's and it's sure to have
some impact on participation. Warbird shops are backed up with T-34's headed out
the door and T-6's inbound to take their place.
The Texans/Harvards have always been the bedrock of the Warbirds airshow and I'm
sure they will still turn up, but in reduced numbers. NOW is the time for RPA
aircraft to step in the spotlight, on stage from behind the curtain. The Understudy
gets a break; lets make the most of it and show our stuff.

That inspection and repair of the wing attachment L joint on the T-6 is no
small affair. The T-6's will be down for a while. I was talking to one of
my T-6 buds for the unit this past weekend. He is not a happy camper. Yes,
the ol' Russian iron will shine.

Go to the EAA website and do a search for T-6 Wing attachment AD. The FAA
mandated an inspection of the wing attachment L brackets on the entire T-6
fleet. Like the T-34's they are grounded until done. They can get a special
ferry permit to fly the A/C to an inspection facility but otherwise they
are dead in the water.

--> Yak-List message posted by: DaBear <dabear@damned.org>
Folks, I dont want to sound unreasonable nor preachy, however I want to
respond to some of the messages about the T34-T6 groups and how we can
fill the void.
Those people flying the T34s and T6s spent a lot of money to purchase,
maintain, and fly their airplanes. I wouldnt want to be in their
position where my airplane was sitting on the ground, or I was looking
at 10-50 thousand dollar inspections/repairs. This could be happening to
us, just as quickly as it is happening to them. We as fellow warbird
pilots should be supporting them in this situation, not talking about
taking advantage.
I dont know about the rest of you, but I can barely afford to fly my
CJ. The airplane has to be maintained properly or my butt doesnt go in
the seat. It is an inexpensive warbird to fly, but it isnt cheap. My
family gives up a lot so that I can do something like this because it
means a lot to me. Im sure many yak drivers and other warbird drivers
are in the same boat. I would hate to be in the same situation as the
T34 or T6 guys where the value of my plane may come down, looking at
months of not flying, and potential large costs to get back in the air.
Healthy competitiveness is a good thing. It drives improvement and it
can be fun. I would rather go to sun-n-fun, Oshkosh, or any other
airshow, with a lot of T34s and T6s and T28s, etc. Why, because Id like
to show our formation flying skills against them equally. But Id also
like to see the other planes flying and to meet/talk/enjoy the company
of those other pilots, just like I do with my fellow yak pilots.
If I had the net wealth of someone like Bill Gates, Id like to think
other great warbirds. Before I die, Id like to fly a Corsair, a
yak-3/9, Yak-52TW, T-28, T-34, Spitfire, Bearcat, F-86, B-17, B-25,
P-40, and a lot of other planes. It may not happen, but I can dream.
But it all doesnt matter, because we already get to fly great
airplanes. We are lucky because there are not many people that get to
fly these birds. Just look at the faces of the kids and adults that see
us a the local airport or the big airshows. Many wish they were as lucky
as us.
Each of these airplanes has pluses and minuses. Ive only owned 3
airplanes in my life (Yak-52, CJ6-A, and the CJ6-A with the M14P), they
each have their good side and not so good side. It is the same for the
other warbirds. We dont need to have a chip on our shoulder and we
certainly dont need to prove anything except that we can fly well and
fly safe.
I continue to go to these airshows to fly formation, learn
flying/maintenance items in seminars, but mostly I go to hang out with
GREAT people. Ive met some wonderful, down to earth, friendly, nice
people flying yaks as well as other things. Enjoy the time we get
together at these shows. Lets show our skills, improve our flying,
improve our knowledge on our plane and its systems, be safe, and have
fun. But lets show our support for those other warbird folks.
Our attitude and our support in this situation will be seen by others.
Let it be seen as being supportive, because some day the roles might be
reversed and wed like their support. Sorry for the soapbox, but Ive
not been to a clinic or airshow yet this year and Im missing it big
time. I also think this organization and this group of people should
always take the high road.

I was just talking to my neighbor who restores T-6's about the AD.
Theres a guy in CA that sells T-6 parts, and has a pretty serious
inventory, his wing attach angle sets have gone from $5k to $13k
overnight.
I then get a EAA Warbirds flyer yesterday, and one of the first
articles was about some guy in Lakeland who has just purchased 2 Iskra
Jets for his "Jet Rides" for hire business, including Formation
Training and "Air Combat" simulation.
Anyone want to buy my L-29? I figure at some point in the future
someone will ripp the wings off of one of them, and I'll be facing
AD's costing more than the worth of my airplane.
Eventually someone will figure out that they can run this kind of
"Business" very economically with Yak's and CJ's, and start ripping
the wings off of them also.
Businesses who engage in this kind of activity should be held to a
different standard than those of us who just fly occasionally for fun.
No T-34 or T-6 or any other warbird that I know of has ever had an
in-flight structual failure other than those engaged in these "Air
Combat" enterprises. How is it that they can get their CoA's waived,
since they clearly state that this kind of activity is prohibited?

The sad part is is that the AD was reccomended by the guy running the
operation that had the wing ripped off. I guess he figured that he
would blame the airplane rather than his mistreatment of the airplane,
in order to deflect the inevitable lawsuits that he is facing.

I keep saying that the silver lining in our operating limitations is that
it at least makes it pretty difficult for someone to earn a living abusing
an experimental exhibition -certificated airplane.
While there's lots of talk about getting rid of a lot of the more
capricious limitations, it's unlikely that the prohibition against
carrying passangers for hire is ever going to go away... and that seems
more and more like a Good Thing with every passing year.

Anybody out there ever have their air valve stuck in the open position? Short
of using a breaker bar on it, I can not turn it off. It has always worked perfectly
(10 years) so I don't have any idea what happened. It seems that something
internally has jammed.

Most likely a piece of metal has separated internally and jammed the valve
mechanism. Although it is very rare, it can happen and you're only choice
is to replace it.

Since my plane has been down for painting (2 months now) it has leaked
a prodicious amount of oil out of the exhaust. I'd appreciate the
procedure for checking/cleaning/replacing the check valve which I
beleive is in the oil inlet to the oil pump.
Thanks

Ernie,
I'll email you off-list a Word document showing the breakdown of the oil
pump so you can see where the valve is. The Word document will also have a
brief explanation of what to do. I'm assuming the oil pump on your Housai
is very similar to the M14 oil pump.

Does anyone know what the test position on a KT76A does.
Does it perform a test of the transponder or does it just power up the indicator
light.
Thanks,

A transponder works by "echoing" back a reply to ATC radar, thats when
the light goes on. The test simulates an ATC ping, if the light goes
on then the x-ponder is supposedly working.

Agree with air combat being held to a different standard (for both hire and
fun). But... if one remembers, the T-6 was used as an arial gunnery
trainer. That was both for the backseater and the front seater. Some
tactical maneuvers were also taught with that plane. Rolling G is the
culpret. As stated before, metal has memory and eventually it will fatigue.
At least our spars are stressed to failure.
That being said, there is alot that goes into ACM training. Just going out
an raping it up with your best bud in an airplane built in 1940 is not the
best of ideas (in my humble opinion).

I agree, additionally by the time students got into the T-6 they were
pretty well trained, unlike these for hire outfits who will take any
non-pilot up and let them snatch the stick. By the time the back
seater intervenes, its too late.

DeBear,
I'm not gloating over the T-6 ordeal. I feel their pain. One of my best
friends is a T-6 driver/owner. He earns his play money flying in airshows.
This will hurt him in more ways than those of us flying YAKs/CJ's for fun
can ever imagine. Think about not having your airplane for the better part
of the airshow season and that is where part of annual income comes from.
The FAA needs to hold the for Hire guys in ACM to a different standard than
the rest. Yes a fleet wide wing attachment bracket inspection (all 8 above
and below) needs to be done as a starting point.but then the standard needs
to change for the for hire guys.

It performs an internal test of the electronics but not the receiver. Your
transponder can be deaf and otherwise inop and still pass the self-test feature.
If the reply light comes on when you turn the mode selector to the 'test'
position and the reply light comes on, that tells you that most of the
electronics are working but it is no guarantee that all are working.
The only way to know for sure that your transponder is working is to take it
to a shop which will test it over-the-air which tests both the transponder and
the antenna/feedline.

Thank you all for the info on the transponder.
I'll have it in for a test tomorrow.

So how does a simple exhortation to step up where others must fade back turn into
something to rant about? Only in the mind of those who look for those things
I guess. I'm hoping for for RECORD RPA turnout at OSH and participation to show
off both our birds and our skills.
Sooner or later our "secret" will be out...these are good honest, well-built warbirds
that run at a reasonable cost (for a warbird). The way things go today,
maybe sooner.

Nothing is ever so clearly and benignly stated that it cannot be
misinterpreted by someone.

Dennis,
The M14P in my YAK 50 has the same oil problem as described by Ernie. I
would appreciate it if you would send me the same info as sent to Ernie.
Thankyou for your help.

It is getting out. My T-6 buddy can't stop saying enough good things about
my bird after he flew it with me at a FAST clinic in Atlanta. He was blown
away by the way the she handled and then he saw my gas bill for the entire
weekend with two days of 4 turn 3 's. Simply stated,"this bird is way to
cool and cheap too!" And she is a RADIAL.
Trust me they are getting the message but unfortunately so are the
Russians. Seen the price of parts out of Russia lately?
