    Subject: scrap 52
    --> Yak-List message posted by: Mark Jefferies YAK UK Ltd <mark.j@yakuk.com> The a/c spec mentioned below is a typical canadate for OH. Just the parts for 59/60 & 107 will cost 15,000 USD. With the works done at Aerostar for the embodiment of this mandatory bulitin will be 24,000 USD. (aerostar quote in 1996) U/C legs and lifters OH is 4000 USD, Then add the remaining OH costs with new glasses and painting you pay more than buying a younger a/c thats been through the OEM or approved company OH process. Scrap a/c as described below sell for 15-20,000 USD in Ukraine, its the labour and parts that add most value. Like teh AN2, 5000$ for a scrapper, buy the time its flying its 60,000 $+ Also I note the serial number is not correct, does the a/c have original logs or is it a "bogus" reserection? get what u pay for, its sales like these that get the type a bad name hence the YAK 52 prices have not appreciated like the CJ6.

    Subject: A new forum
    --> Yak-List message posted by: "Tim Gagnon" <NiftyYak50@msn.com> Folks, I too had plans to re-invent the wheel with "another" forum but scrapped it pretty early on. I did not want to add to the growing mix. My intent was to gather all the information and experience here into one EASY place for those that own these airplanes and those that are interested in them. This list is a fantastic place for some of that but it is not very user friendly. I honestly don't think this group would survive without some sort of place to go. I think it would benefit us all to find ONE place to post and share. Gus has a good thing and so does the "YPA". I think we need to find a new "easier" home in either place.. Just my thoughts.. T

    Subject: Re: exhaust systems available soon
    --> Yak-List message posted by: JOE <joeh@shaw.ca> I can vouch for these exhaust systems having worked with Gary Green when he first built the systems. Installed in my own CJ with the Huosai engine for several years, then on my M14 in the same airplane. Sold many systems to satisfied CJ6 owners. Definitely the answer to exhaust leaks and deterioration problems. I am glad to hear that Kimballs have taken over manufacture of this great product!

    --> Yak-List message posted by: ByronMFox@aol.com I have a Gary Green exhaust systems on my Huosai 285. Is it possible to substitute the section containing the heater cuff for the existing section, or must I replace the entire system? My wife justifiably complains that the back seat is miserably cold during the winter. All of which reminds me with winter approaching it's time to get yourselves one or two of the Red Star Pilots Association's great mock turtleneck long sleaved shirts. Comes in black and white. A very snappy addition to your winter flying gear. Go to http://www.flyredstar.org/StoreCSVS/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=428 Thanks, Blitz Byron M.

    --> Yak-List message posted by: KJKimball@aol.com Blitz, We can add the heat studs and shroud to your exhaust segment. Do you plan to have the A/C down this winter for maintenance? If, yes, we could most likely do it at that time if you send the segment to us. We have a ton of work to catch up on with current back orders but we should be able to get to yours in a month or two.

I have invested a great deal of my own money and time making this site as reliable, high-performance, and trouble free as possible. I have online archives dating back to the beginning of the Yak List back in March of 1999 when Brian asked me to set the list up. Further demonstrating my long-term commitment to this effort, members will find that there are online archives dating back to April of 1990 when I started the RV-List. That's 16 years of service to that community. I think this long-term commitment to the aircraft community has tremendous value in today's "here-today, gone-tomorrow" Internet environment. I am certainly not trying to bad-mouth the offerings of others with respect to their efforts in making other options available. That being said, there is value in supporting a specific community that has been in it for the long-haul. If there are features that List members want, then please drop me some personal email. I do monitor every single List here on the Matronics servers, but that's a lot of daily email and I may or may not catch a current discussion, in particular regarding a desire for new or additional features. I have a great deal of personal commitment to this site and want to make it what the majority of the List members would like it to be. Tim Gagon above mentions that he considers this site "not very user friendly". But what does that mean exactly? Yes, it is not a PHP, web-based browsing site, but I personally see that as an advantage. The List Browse feature allows members to browse the last 7-days worth of messages just like the PHP systems. The Search Engine allows members to pull up information from the last 6+ years in a matter of seconds. The Yak List is, at the core, an email-based exchange forum. In my opinion, this format offers the best all-around functionality when coupled with the other utilities available such as the List Browse, and Search engine. A feature I currently don't have enabled for the Yak List is that ability to post pictures. I can easily enable this if members would like that. Please help me make this site what you would like it to be. Let's not fracture the content across multiple sites. As Brian pointed out, this serves only to dilute the available content. As I mentioned earlier, I am personally committed to providing a high-quality, highly-available discussion forum for the aircraft community. I think my track record over the last 16 years has proven that time and time again.

Let's > not fracture the content across multiple sites. As Brian pointed > out, this serves only to dilute the available content. > Matt Dralle > Matronics Email List Administrator Matt, It would be a shame to see this list fall by the wayside. It serves a large purpose in the YAK/CJ/Delphin/Sukoi/Albatros ect community. Sure being able to post a picture with an email input would be nice but the other way works ok too. Took me a while to figure it out though and that may be the rub. As far as email archives go, this is pretty simple by most standards. The RPA (YPA for the diehards in the crowd) site and Gus's site are nice sites, but are fragmented. No we do not have a detailed long running thread on an individual topic under its sole window that addresses only that topic for it's the entire life. This site survives because of free association. Sometimes the topic is not necessarily all about flying Red Star Aircraft and I'm am certainly guilty of that at times as are many others. One thing for sure, if you have a question ask it and you will get an answer. It may not be what you wanted to hear but it is still the answer. Has anyone paid attention to the Warbirds List? It is dead..we could easily use all thier silicon bit space for the last 3 years up in a couple of months. Fragmenting the discussion can certainly send us down the same road. So, Matt after all that drivel, do not change a thing. From my humble...well more like aerogant opinion, Topics on the List (threads) are like reeling in 6 lb trout on a 2 lb leader...you just have to let them run sometimes before they tire out. Doc

    Subject: New Forum
    --> Yak-List message posted by: "Tim Gagnon" <NiftyYak50@msn.com> Matt, I think a more traditional forum would help tremendously but it would come at a cost. Something like this: (And I just googled Forums software so I have no ties to these folks) http://demo.webboard.com/ It would make it easier to navigate and could add some usability to the forum. It would also add some "curb" appeal for those that may be interested in these airplanes. I am sure everyone here has benefited from you efforts and I for one appreciate them. My thoughts of a "new" forum were only because I think the work involved may be something more than what you were willing to do. It would be completely different than what you have given us here. Just a thought. Tim

    --> Yak-List message posted by: fish@aviation-tech.com Tim, Hard lines are less prone to failure then flex lines. Flex lines should be replaced at reguliar intervials to prevent in-flight failures (typicaly every 5 years). You will need to use flex lines to connect to items that move or vibrate to reduce inducing failure at that point in the system.
