Subject: | New Nomex Flt Suits |
For those looking for new nomex flt suits in sizes for the full figured aviator...try www.BDU.com. They go as large a 50 long for $129.00. Just remember to not wash the suit in fabric softener, wear cotton underneath, keep it clean from oils, and wear a loose fitting flight suit, It is for flash fire protection mainly as stated before.
After all, those faded green almost brown ones you found in the surplus store
for a song got there for a reason. They were the ones turned back in for new ones.
This subject is officially declared a smoking hole...the HORSE IS DEAD>>>WE CAN'T

Scooter,
You asked about power and pitch settings for inverted spins in the 52. Try
www.yak-52.com. Click on spins on the website. It has a fairly down and
dirty on what to expect.
Dennis can also send you the Univ of Tenn study on spin entry and recovery
for the YAK-52.

I have seen two versions of the clock's stop watch: One version has a second sweep
on the big dial working for the stopwatch (not the clock) and the sub-dail
for the stopwatch counting the minutes with a 30 minute face., the other version
has the second hand on the big dial working for the clock and the stopwatch?
sub-dial counting minutes with a 30 minute face.?
FYI - the two versions are the -1
-1 = second hand operates with clock, stopwatch sub-dial 60 minutes
-1M = second hand operates with stopwatch, stopwatch sub-dial 30 minutes

i've done several inverted spins and haven't noticed any bad habits. i'll save
the flat spins until i have someone in the back who's flat spin proficient.

If you are flying alone, the FAA doesn't require a chute no matter what manuevers
you do. It is written very clearly in the FAR.

Aren't the words in 91.307 (c) "no pilot of a civil aircraft carrying any person

die a peaceful death, but like a insidious disease this subject does not seem
to want to die.
OK here's my question, first forget the RPA, are we sure that that wearing
a parachute would not be mandatory by FAR 91.307 paragraph c? I know most times
I have been in a form flight, especially in extended trail, we exceed 60 degrees
of bank and a nose up or nose down of greater than thirty degrees, which
according to the FAA requires you to wear a chute. This doesn't even bring up
whether the FAA looks a formation flying as normal flight.

Donate them to your r/c pals. (radio control, aka model aeroplanes)
I saw a bunch of them in a (US) magazine picture, all wearing flight suits
with patches as well. There was no text that explained the set-up. Must be
monster model aircraft over there, powered by plutonium or warpdrive or
something?
Glad I live in South Africa, the US seems like a real frightening dangerous

The reason is because the air shows will be compensating the
REDSTARS. And the FAA does not allow you to take compensation in any
form be it fuel, rooms or cash without a commercial ticket and a 2nd
class medical

Thanks for all numbers you gave me for W&B last year. Here is a copy of
my spreadsheet using your stations/datum. Looking at your numbers, I
came to a little more forward AFT CG number than you had. So you may or

Just as food for though......if someone is going to bust my head in or kill
my family then don't I have a NATURAL right to defend myself?
Isn't it a NATURAL right to protect yourself and your family from those that
would do you harm?
Well, of course these are NATURAL rights.......few would argue you can't
protect yourself.
No one has the "privilege" to take these rights away from you.
Ask yourself............... "do I think I have a NATURAL right to do the
following"?
Eat?
Sleep?
Make a living?
Raise your children?
Teach your children as you see fit?
Build a roof over your head?
Transport yourself?
Make clothes?
Build an automobile?
Play a game of chess?
Work in your machine shop?
Research new inventions?
Help your fellow man?
Take a breath of air?
Walk?
Run?
Lift an object?
Skate on a lake?
Fish for your food?
Grow your own food?
Cook your own meals?
Read books?
Speak your mind?
Travel?
Worship your God?
Say a prayer?
Live a full life?
Do you think you have a right to do these things?
Or do you think government GIVES you these rights?
Walking, eating, flying, procreation, driving, talking, hunting, fishing,
home building are all a NATURAL right!
No government entity is "entitled" to GRANT me "privileges" to do these
things.......... because they are not privileges......they are NATURAL
rights!

PS Are you willing to give away your NATURAL rights to government
regulation? If so then let's start with your PRIVILEGE to free speech.

Having the commercial rating implies a greater level of demonstrated
capability but the medical requirement is just 100% BS.
They whole medical thing is just so much BS. It tells you that, on the
day you got your exam, you were in reasonable health. You could drop
dead the next day.
Case in point, my father was out flying legally and still playing
basketball. He went in for some minor surgery and they discovered
something very minor in his ECG. They did further tests and decided to
do a triple-bypass. It was 100% successful. He had never suffered a
heart attack. So, with the problem with his heart, he was allowed to fly
with a valid medical certificate. After the problem was corrected and he
was even safer to fly, his medical certificate was revoked. Go figure.

Of course, that begs the question of the FAA's legitimacy. What gives
them the right to grant or not grant "privileges"?
More semantics.

Subject: | compensation issue, my second last try. |
I am very aware of what the rules say, and of how the FAA currently
interprets them. My point was only that this poorly written reg will surly
effect us all at some point and I don't think it is in our best interest (as
a group) to just roll over without giving it our best shot. Which I might
add will cost you nothing. So, if you will give me that small point without
further list noise, I would like to see us proceed. I know from our past
history as a group we seem to be nearly incapable of coming to a consensus,
so I expect this will be a uphill fight even within our own ranks. But I am
sure that writing a well worded letter and sending it to the other various
other like minded groups which we believe would have an interest, just might
give us the numbers we need to effect a change in the verbiage of the reg
regarding compensation for static display. The change might be as simple as
moving the medical requirements from a second to a third class, or to a pvt
and a 3rd class. This is ONLY to accept compensation for the static display
of his/her experimental category aircraft. This would not effect performers
that fly for hire, again this is JUST to allow compensation for the the
static display of the aircraft.
And please, those of you naysayers and self appointed pundants who plunder
the list on a daily basis, most of you have already weighed in saying that I
am pissing in the wind, so OK please leave it at that, and now lets try to
do something as a group to help our community at large instead of
fragmenting the group with further negative comments. In short, if you
don't have something constructive to say about this issue just shut the hell
up! If we could find even half as much time to devote to this issue as was
spent on the list babbling about non productive issues we would be well on
the way to getting our thoughts into a form that we could present to the
other organizations, and from there to the AOPA and the EAA and hopefully if
we could demonstrate the numbers, they would carry the issue to the FAA.
I have no problem devoting the time and trouble to chair this project, but I
will not do it without the help and co operation of the community at large.
Those of you that feel that this is a worth while project and wish to
contribute their thoughts but don't like to use the list because of the
rancorous comments, feel free to contact me off list or call me at the
number below. If I don't get ample reaction to this posting I will drop the
idea.

What is wrong Frank? I find myself in agreement with you again.
BTW, if you go to ARS, I will be happy to fly with you, provide
instruction, etc., even if you aren't wearing a flight suit. Maybe we
can get a whole cadre of non-flight-suit-wearing pilots to show up at
ARS to fly.

To the other lurkers......... get off your dead asses and speak out to
regain your freedoms! Help Doug in his efforts to promote aviation! Let
those who are engaged in profit answer to the rules of the FAA.....in
keeping with the spirit of their rules. But those of us who do it for fun
shouldn't be hobbled with rules not designed for us. (personally. I despise
government regulation.....but I have to live with it or I'll find a gun to
my head by some well meaning but short sighted peace officer).
For cryin' out loud......let our expenses be covered so it will promote
aviation! We aren't making a profit off of this stuff! If you want to make a
profit then, hell, get your commercial.....I don't give a rats ass.
Look.......If I'm not making a profit, why shouldn't airshow organizers help
pay for the costs of our being there? This isn't a business! It's only to
help defray individual costs and help make aviation more available to
everyone.

Why do you need the support of the community at large? If you want to
change it, you should try to change it.

Unfortunately, the way to change this is to get the issue in front of a
federal judge who's of a mind to take a natural law approach to this... a
strict constitutionalist and someone who's not so fond of so much
government. What does it take to find a judge who's willing to say to the
FAA, "Aren't you supposed to be ENCOURAGING flying?" Which means that
we'll need both luck and money on our side.

Subject: Yak-List: compensation issue, my second last try.
I am very aware of what the rules say, and of how the FAA currently interprets
them. My point was only that this poorly written reg will surly effect us
all at some point and I don't think it is in our best interest (as a group) to
just roll over without giving it our best shot. Which I might add will cost
you nothing. So, if you will give me that small point without further list noise,
I would like to see us proceed. I know from our past history as a group
we seem to be nearly incapable of coming to a consensus, so I expect this will
be a uphill fight even within our own ranks. But I am sure that writing a well
worded letter and sending it to the other various other like minded groups
which we believe would have an interest, just might give us the numbers we need
to effect a change in the verbiage of the reg regarding compensation for static
display. The change might be as simple as moving the medical requirements
from a second to a third class, or to a pvt and a 3rd class. This is ONLY to
accept compensation for the static display of his/her experimental category aircraft.
This would not effect performers that fly for hire, again this is JUST
to allow compensation for the the static display of the aircraft.
And please, those of you naysayers and self appointed pundants who plunder the
list on a daily basis, most of you have already weighed in saying that I am
pissing in the wind, so OK please leave it at that, and now lets try to do something
as a group to help our community at large instead of fragmenting the group
with further negative comments. In short, if you don't have something constructive
to say about this issue just shut the hell up! If we could find even
half as much time to devote to this issue as was spent on the list babbling
about non productive issues we would be well on the way to getting our thoughts
into a form that we could present to the other organizations, and from there
to the AOPA and the EAA and hopefully if we could demonstrate the numbers, they
would carry the issue to the FAA.
I have no problem devoting the time and trouble to chair this project, but I
will not do it without the help and co operation of the community at large. Those
of you that feel that this is a worth while project and wish to contribute
their thoughts but don't like to use the list because of the rancorous comments,

Subject: | compensation issue, my second last try. |
Count me in. I couldn't agree more. I fly in the shows. Sometimes I sit
static. This has always been a bone of contention within the warbird
community at large. I understand they are protecting their turf, but in many
ways it runs up the overall costs of organizations trying to host shows.
Most airshows I've been acquainted with over the past two to three years
finish 10-15,000 dollars in the red, simply because of the price of the
heavy iron associated with pro-shows like "Planes of Fame". Don't get me
wrong, it costs a lot of money to get a Hellcat, Corsair, Wildcat, Avenger,
and Skyraider on site, but they still charge something like 50K for the
whole shebang. You have to sell a lot of tickets to cover that cost plus
fuel, cars and hotel. Most small shows can't handle it. I've found that they
like the Yak guys cause were cheap and get them a lot of bang for their
buck. The overall Gas bill is light and the folks come to see planes flying
and we can do that for dollars on the hour. Sadly, most don't know a Yak-52
from a P-47. They come to see planes and hear noise. Conversely, we are the
red-headed scum of WOA for that same reason. I can live with it. Sitting
static should not require anything more than a straight-up pilots license
and you should be comped' gas and oil. If you want to fly in the show and
get paid have a commercial, FAST (for formation), fire-retardant wonder bra,
lifetime prescription to viagra, and a picture of Hillary glued face up in
your seat pan as something that might provoke you to bail out in an
emergency.

This list started (way before me) as a great way to exchange info
about like kind airplanes. It has degradted into a forum for people
who like to hear them self type. I for one have had enough. I thought
it would be enough to just filter by sunbject and author, but it has
become apparent that this list lacks any substance whatsoever worthy
of any attention at all.
I feel sorry for the new CJ/Yak owners out there who joined this list
to LEARN about their aircraft only to be bombasted by the tirades of a
few selfish indiividuals who are more concerned about winning an
argument over the overall charter of this list which is to provide a
source of information to owners of Yaks and CJ type airplanes.
Megabytes of disk space have been wasted by the selfish few who insist
on planting their view of the world upon the rest of us.
Brian, I suggest you resign from RPA, Its obviously not for you. While
you;re at it get off this list, you're pretty much ruined for me. You
dont even own a Red star airplane, go somewhere else.
If anyone agrees that this should be an upbeat forum about our
airplanes, I want to see a show of hands,......If you want to see more
of this worthless banter then let us know. As far as I'm concerned I'm
sick of this shit!
