Folks,
Let's try this again!!!! That link was a bit off.
Folks,
A good friend of mine has done a fantastic job of a stunning profile of the
Yak-50 and has begun work on the Yak-52. He will also be doing the CJ-6 in
the near future. He is now accepting custom orders for a profile of the
Yak-50 and Yak-52. The work really is great! Are you thinking of a new paint
scheme for your airplane and not sure what it will look like in the end? Try
Barry's work and you will KNOW exactly what it will look like!
Check out the Yak-50 he has done (This is Mark Schrick's BEAUTIFUL airplane)
http://community.webshots.com/user/junglejett<http://community.webshots.com/user/junglejett>
Now, if you want to see what kind of work he does as well, check out his
site. He also builds some really cool websites! If you are looking for
something different for your business or something personal, drop him a
line. Tell him I sent you! (I am not taking a single dime from this, just
want to see his work appreciated) Check out his cartoons!! (He is doing one
for me) He really digs the Yak!!!

This is a convertoer site for all sorts of stuff.
Select pressure from the top field then select inches of Mercury for once
field, and cm Mercury. You'll have to multiply your answer by 10 to get MM
of mercury.
eg., 31.5 inches 80cm 800 mm.

For a quick and dirty the conversion is 25:1 25mm = 1 in. A change of 100mm is
a change of 4" or thereabouts. The reference point is 30" = 760 mm.
26" = 660mm
(And if you want to be really anal about it 29.92" = 760mm.)

My local airport is charging $3.26. The next-door airport that sells more fuel
is at $4.10.

Thanks Frank!!!!! I was about to freaking lose it!!
That is Mark Schricks Yak-50 and it is beautiful!!!
Mine..well...as soon as I can, its paint scheme is coming off. It will be stripped
down to bare metal (it never has been) and be properly painted.
Thanks again! I hope you guys find some use in that artwork. He is really excited
about doing them and seeing how everything one likes it. He will be "lofting"
my new design soon!!

All,
Hello, My name is Scott and I am a future Yakaholic from Tehachapi Ca.
Hope I'm not intruding but I am new to the Yak world. Shrek and Savarese
are probably tired of dealing with me at this point as I have been trying to
find the "right" airplane for over a year now.
I am an engineer working Flight Test at Edwards and found this post
particularly interesting. What CO problem are you looking for exactly?

Ahhh,
But that would only explain CO in the cockpit for a brief period of time
(the landing phase of flight). It would be helpful to see your testing in
cruise configurations.

After reading the messages re CO in the cockpit I purchased a CO
-experts monitor model 2004, after tying a string to it and hanging it
around my neck I went for a test hop---digital readout went from 27 to
55 to 70ppm the it just read "HI". NEEDLESS to say I immediately landed
and began trouble shooting for leaks in the exhaust. Using shop air I
pressurised the manifolds and soap checked the joints, found two
massive leaks, one at the joint between #2 and #3 cyl. the other at the
point the smoke nozzle was attached to the manifold (if your system was
installed by Crowder I recommend you check for leaks). One relatively
small leak at the #3 attach spanner nut. I buttoned it back up this
morning and flew with the following results: Cruise- 0ppm, 100mph
canopy closed - 22pm, 100mph canopy at first notch--0ppm. Hard left
turn - 27ppm hard right turn- 22ppm. 120mph smoke on- 12ppm canopy
open- 10ppm canopy closed. I believe the remainder is coming from the
exhaust pipe exit. ANYWAY You guys may have saved a life!!! I still
would like to get it to zero in all regimes, has anyone tried vortex
destroyers in the area between the cowl and the leading edge of the
wing? Yak 52 driver Ade Hale---Tulsa

You know there is a good solution to the leaky exhaust system joints. Contact
Radial Engine Exhausts in Jumping Branch Virginia their Stainless system uses
slip joints not the junk joints of the Chinese system or Russian system. Since
it is made from a material superior to the original exhaust systems it doesn't
burn through.

So guys, you honestly believe that the slip joint system (which has no seal
at all) affords you more protection against exhaust leaks than the properly
maintained shim and gasket type system of the Nanchang and Yak stock
exhaust? I would respectfully submit that the slip joint system will look
better and take less maintenance, but to expect a metal against metal slip
joint with no seal to not leak under pressure and do anything but get looser
and leak more and more over time is in my opinion a great leap of faith. I
honestly feel that the properly maintained stock system, be it yak or CJ is
still the best way to prevent exhaust leaks in the engine compartment. Back
when these slip joint systems were introduced we were not smart enough to
consider the gas problem and so there was no worry about CO2, they were not
designed to prevent CO2, they were designed to stop the continual
maintenance of the seals, clamps, and gaskets and the burn out problems of
the standard steel Nanchang systems, and the crack out problems of the
titanium Yak systems.
"your mileage may vary".
Always Yakin,
Doug Sapp

Sir,
'Twas I who posted the comment; it was NOT a complaint about the price of Avgas,
it was a complaint about the price of Motor car petrol. Perhaps the underlying
issue is the rate of increase rather than the absolute amount. Believe it or
not, some of us blokes on the 'list are Po' boys who need to manage their fixed
incomes and stock market crash ravaged portfolios.
But now that you mention it.....

There is no torque spec, it's a compression measurement. See Task card 404, kinda

Contact Radial Engine Exhausts in Jumping Branch Virginia their Stainless
system uses slip joints not the junk joints of the Chinese system or
Russian system. Since it is made from a material superior to the original
exhaust systems it doesn't burn through.

Subject: | Re: yak list: CO in the cockpit |
--> Yak-List message posted by: Ernest Martinez <erniel29@gmail.com>
Honestly Doug,
My short answer is yes, after putting several hundred hours on my system,
the joints actually sealed themselves. Firstly they were a very tight fit to
start with, secondly over time, the joints fill in with whatever soot may
have penetrated through. Many Spam cans and American warbirds have been
using slip joints for years. When designed properly they work great.
And you said it your self "A properly MAINTAINED" shim and gasket system.
The shims and gaskets require maintenance, can move, disintegrate, all
situations that will cause an exhaust leak, while a "properly fitted" slip
joint system is virtually maintenance free, except for checking the
tightness of the head collars which would have to be done on either system.
I personally hated the shim/gasket/clamp system. I'm willing to bet that a
large percentage of the systems out there are missing the shims and are just
relying on the clamps.
Its all mooot however since you cant get the slip joint system from Jumping
Branch any more anyway, so anyone looking to switch is better off with Dougs
stainless system rather than the crappy original stuff that came with the
stock engines.
Also, I'm not too worried about the Carbon Dioxide (CO2) coming into my
plane, but the Carbon Monoxide (CO) :) (Couldnt resist.)

Thanks Craig....
I saw the 34.5 on the task card, and assumed it was a MM measurement but it
I wasn't completely sure...was hoping there was a torque... I'll get out my

The best conversion program that I have seen is Sacramento Sky Ranch's "Engineering

You are right the gentleman in Jumping Branch, Virginia did sell out, however the
company that bought him out didn't want anything to do with radial engines
and last I heard he was still in business making radial exhausts.
As Doug Sap said he has Chinese Stainless systems for sale also.
Regarding slip joint leakage, there are a large number of turbocharged aircraft
running with slip joint systems ahead of the turbo, they hold up real well as
leakage kills the turbo system. No exhaust system is maintenance free and should
be watched carefully. Longer exhaust outlets? Will they clear the lower
cowl on the CJ?
