Dan,
Chutes are JAA form 1 certified, which is pretty much the same.

| Subject: | Mass Formation Missions |
Folks,
On the 11th of Feb. an RPA ecom was sent out detailing the RedStars mass formation
program that several volunteers have worked on over the last few months.
If you are an RPA member and did not get this ecom, please email Jeff Linebaugh,
Terry Calloway, Jim Goolsby or reply to this post off list! (check your email
inbox for the ecom) - these folks are working to put the program on its feet
to...
The program has 79 FAST and near soon-to-be-FAST rated pilots signed up, and
four shows are booked from ICAS. 18 pilots have signed up for the four shows
and this sign up form will go out periodically to the members, it's important
that every FAST pilot has a chance to put their name in the hat.
RedStars is a program that allows the RPA to attend ICAS each year to market
the mass formation flying skills of members to the airshow industry during this
critical scheduling convention. Airshows that request RPA mass formation are
then communicated to you the membership via ecom sign up form (which will be
posted on the new website as well). From that point on the member pilots execute
the airshow mass formation. The program attempts to insure the organizers
provide a standardized support package for the pilots flying (gas, oil, rooms,
transpo).
We hope this sets up more opportunities to allow pilots to fly in leading airshows
around the US/Canada. The program hopes to be self-funded by donations
collected from the airshows and eventual corporate sponsorship.
Thanks for listening,
Drew

Hang in there my NE Region brothers! I'm with you in spirit. While our Great Leader
talks of RPA airshows this year, I had to shovel 8 inches of Sunshine off
the apron in front of the hanger. Wings Over Miami coming up this Friday and
temps will barely break into the 80's. How will I stand it :>)

unit. If you could be of any help for us, please have a look at:

I am about to recover my Yak 52 control surfaces and have a couple of questions.
I removed the rudder fabric and discovered the unusual way they do their rib-stitching.
The ribs are drilled and the stiches go chord-wise instead of around
the rib span-wise like most aircraft. Is this how others are doing the stitching?
The yellow Russian primer is almost immune to MEK. That's supposed to mean it's
OK to use Stits products without re-priming everything. Anybody had trouble with
Stits being imcompatible with Russian primer?
I have read of several fixes for cracked paint on the rudder. One thing that looks
like it would help is to use 2 inch finishing tapes. The Russians use one
inch, and that leaves the fabric directly touching the forward edge of the trailing
edge metal with no reinforcement. My cracks seem to come from that area
and radiate forward. Two-inch tapes on the ribs would stiffen the fabric too.

Mike
The Russian primer is impervious to even paint stripper. I had to remove
some from a few parts and I found a witches brew of MEK, 100LL, paint
stripper, JET A and a few other things I can't remember did the job.....but
not without allot of scrubbing :)
Don't worry about the Russian primer...it's some of the best in the
business. Your covering process won't touch it.
As viewed from the rear, the upper left part of the rudder is prone to
cracking on all YAKs due to pounding from the prop blast. Some people have
put hard foam formers under this area to stiffen the fabric and help keep
the paint from cracking due to the prop blast.

`Doug,
Re the GENTEX SPH 4B
I'm using the subject helmet in my YAK 50. There's plenty of room at
canopy level
I ordered and received a brand new copy; paid about $300. then went to
Bender at Spruce Creek and had the military headset converted to civilian
accessory for about $100. This is better than the $1200. I would have had
to pay for a comparable hard hat through normal channels. Sure, it's a
helicopter hat but when I finished fastening a large red star decal and
some other do dads , no one knows the difference. The guy in the YAK 52
who tried to bounce me last Friday never knew what kind of a hat I was
wearing when I was in position 30 seconds later and flamed his skinny
ass. And then there was this red faced old guy in a CJ whose primary
experience was gained while eating his crew meals from a tray on a
pillow in his lap while in the cockpit of his BOING ....... Will they
ever learn? Sorry, Doug; things were just getting too quiet.
Cliff
