Now we have the Yaks, and CJ's. They are manuverable, yet solid for formation
work. Slowly, we have amassed pilots, trained and sweated to get where we are
today. Our edge? If anything it is that we learn from our mistakes and keep
on improving. Flying a bit more acute also makes for interesting formations
that other groups don't do. So are we in the tent yet? Well maybe not all the way
but there is no more denying our presence.
Where do we go from here? MOTS (more of the same). An airshow formation
manual would be helpful though since airshow flying is different that straight
FAST. We use non-standard procedures and "shortcuts" where prudent. However, I
believe that a workable manual MUST be the product of cumulative input, not the
vision of just a few, but input from all parts of the formation, tail-end
Charlie included.
Craig is right, it is because of all the hard work and dedication all of you
have demonstrated that our group has been accepted into the warbird community.
Each year our mass formations continue to get better at S&F and OSH.
There is a "Chapter 7" to our formation manual, titled "Mass Formation," that
is in the works right now--if any of you have something to contribute to the
effort, please forward the material to me, off List, at mfilucci@aol.com

Folks,
I think from past posts there was/is someone on the Yak list who was/is also
an insurance rep. and knowledgeable in Yak's and insurance and capable of
obtaining reasonable quotes. Insurance will be expiring in a few months
down the road and I would like to use an agent who is at least familiar with
the aircraft. Anybody have contact info for such a person? Also, anybody
willing to share (offline is fine) roughly what a Yak-55 insurance should
approximately cost?
Thanks,
Scott

Ah, OK. So what does work safely? Again, I knew that graphite was detrimental
to stainless but thought it was safe on aluminum and its alloys.

Well, that makes sense. Use the primer as a buffer.

Not well. Money got very tight so I decided to sell the project about 10
months ago. I couldn't get any takers so I ended up selling the engine, prop,
louvers, SS exhaust, and mounting ring to Sean Carroll to use to do an M14P
upgrade to Joe Nygard's airplane. To make a long story short, Sean refuses to
pay the rest of the money he owes me (the deal was for 1/2 up front and 1/2 on
delivery) so I am screwed. The story is a long one but the bottom line is that
Sean got the engine and prop, Joe has a flying airplane, and I *don't* have my
money.
It turns out that I didn't find out that Sean has a history of not paying his
bills in a "timely fashion" until *after* I had shipped the stuff. If some
miracle occurs and I get paid I will certainly let you know. In the mean time,
I am not going to hold my breath.
Still, things are looking up for me financially and I hope to be able to
resurrect the project later this year. I am reducing the scope of the project
for obvious reasons.

The only answer to CO is a tight fitting aviators mask and 100% 02 or a
sealed rebreathing system with a C02 scruber (soda lime). Prolonged
breathing of 100% 02 can cause supurative otis. You just have to clear your
ears frequently after you land. If I were planning on spending 30-60
minutes with my head poked up in someone's slip stream breathing exhaust
gas, I would have an 02 system installed.
Might try contacting one of the spam can manufacturers for the name of the
black tar-like sealer they use on the wing roots and firewalls around
wiring to plug the holes. The wads that are on my Piper have been there for
20 years and have not caused corrosion.
As to the dead beat bill payer, send him a formal invoice for the engine,
prop, labor, and shipping. Send it for 3 months standing. When he does not
pay up after 3 months, turn it over to the credit beaura for collections.
If he does not pay up then, it goes on his credit report. You will
eventually get your money when he tries to buy a car,a TV, or a house.

Graphite and aluminum are spread apart far on the galvanic chart. A pencil
mark on an aluminum part can turn into a crack years down the road. Sharpie
permanent markers work great and are safe on Aluminum. Sharpie ink can be
cleaned off later with acetone, MEK or other such solvents (good, strong and
bad for you).
I always cringe when I see A&P's marking compression readings on aluminum
baffles with pencils. Not just because it's unsightly and unnecessary with
logbook entries but because of the galvanic incompatibility. I ban pencils
from my hangar.

Talk about coincidence. Upon attending George Coy's M14P seminar at OSH he
stated that Aeroshell 15W-50 is incompatible with the M14P. Apparently it
is the only oil he has encountered that ruins the engine pneumatic
compressor within about 2 hours of flight time. Apparently the pump piston
glazes against the cylinder when in contact with 15W-50. George uses
straight-weight AD Aeroshell (W100 or W160, 50wt and 60wt respectfully). I
use the same stuff he does and so was feeling pretty good about things.
George said most other types of oils being used by M14 folks were also
compatible with the compressor without worries.
Wouldn't you know over Kansas on the way home from OSH I lost my air pump.
The engine only has 200 hours on it but no more air charging and the snot
bottle is completely depressurized. Thanks to my on-board electric air
compressor I was able to complete the flight without wanting for air. It
pumps at about 60% the rate of the engine compressor, which is plenty fine
for topping off the system. Won't fly it until fixed now that it's in the
hangar.
Anybody know what typically causes the engine-driven compressor to shear
it's shaft? Is this just a common part of M14P operations or should I look
for clues to other problems?

A buddy of mine has had to disassemble his compressor twice in a year
due to the poppet valve on the top of the compressor sticking. The
only notable thing is that he uses aero shell 100w rather than the

Sharpies are the homebuilders choice for marking aluminum. I buy em by the box.
Beware that they will bleed thru both primer and top coats so remove markings
with anything from denatured alcohol to MEK before painting.
I wouldn't sweat the acedic acid in RTV either. It will serve to etch the surface
to promote adhesion. We use it on RV's in the elevator trailing edge. No worse
that self etching primers which contain phosphoric acid.

Greg Young

Well, that makes sense. Use the primer as a buffer.

Shearing of the compressor shaft is generally associated with the engine
running backwards after shutdown. That is usually due to not "scavaging"
the engine before shutting down. IE: running the %RPM up to 70% for 30 sec.
and slowly pulling back to idle shut off. The Russian manual says to close
the fuel shut off valve when the power is reduced to idle.
Next question? Was it the compressor shear pin that let go or was it the
push rod in the compressor?

That is a VERY good price.
When I had "zero" hours in my YAK-50 and only 100 in tail draggers total...
I paid $2600. YIKES.
I now have 600 hours in tail draggers and am still paying over $1600.
You're doing well.

Craig,
I believe I have seen some 100 photos on the matronics photoshare of OSH.
Or maybe I was hallucinating. That is possible lately with the way my
schedule had degraded to dog shiza (sp)! The Burger King mentality in
Medicine is BS!
