So, this weekend I finally got to practice for the summer season. I
fitted a camera in the fin of the SP and recorded a run through this
years sportsman's. On the link below you will see two runs one is my
coach the other is me. It is obvious which is which :(((

<http://notasukhoi.com/photodata/site-images/mov.jpg>
These are the same aircraft and each flight was done 30 minutes apart
from each other. The amazing thing is that up until the spin it is as if
we were in formation, freaky.
So, thought you might like it. BTW are there any new contestants in the
group this year, speak up you will get a lot of encouragement here.
Enjoy
Gus

Nice video. What kind of camera do you use? Remote control? Also what video
editing software? Did you have any trouble with camera shake?

The camera is built into the fin. The raw quality is MUCH better than
this I had to render it down for the bandwidth challenged. I use Adobe
Premiere 2.0 to edit the video this took all of 15 minutes from it being
in the camcorder to it being on the web.

Folks,
We need your help,
I'm collecting training photos of your Yak 52s and CJs (looking for both a Yak
52 and a CJ as the reference aircraft), what I am looking for is a perfect
wingman pilots perspective shot on lead showing perrrfect position with:
In fingertip, we need a shot with a CJ and a few others with a Yak as lead/reference
aircraft to reflect accurate sightlines:
Angle
-trailing edge of the aileron and forward canopy bow (one with a CJ, one with
a Yak as ref aircraft).
Elevation
-fuel blister just visible on CJ - what do you use for a yak - we need that description
with your shot!
Lateral seperation
- 3rd sightline some of you may have that sets your position down the bearing
line and sets your wingtip spread on like aircraft, Deer Valley (CJ) uses forward
corner of the horizontal tail with a buldge on the CJ emp below the tail
fin - Yak 52 on Yak 52, if you use something, we need it...
Close trail in a yak 52: Whether its following a CJ or Yak 52, as long as it
was shot from a Yak 52 with one ship length spacing, we need it, please send!
Please send to me off list, if you are flying around this weekend and want to
help and have a backseater that can place the aircraft exactly where it's needed,
please take a few digitals - thanks for your help, we've created over 20
pieces of new formation instructional artowork with Yak 52 planforms in equal
number with CJs reflecting the near equal numbers of our membership, we now need
your help with some photos...
Sincerely,
Drew

Lost a server... resubscribed on this address. %-)
What's Mike Filucci's email address?
Has anybody proposed an on-line RPA formation FPR? I'm doing over 100
formation flights a year now and THAT would be a convenient way to track all
that... would take a lot of workload off Mike, too. if anybody else thinks
that's a good idea, I would be happy to write the spec. and HTML for the
various forms, etc. Somebody would have to do the back-end work, tho'...

I've been working on some Yak video. I'm shooting with a small digital camera
that does pretty good video although its really meant to be a still camera. Shake
is a big problem but i've got a freeby video processing program that removes
a lot of it. I edit using Windows MovieMaker which comes free with XP. It
works surprisingly well but is lacking in a few areas.
There are two 2 minute videos at:
http://www.rostovs.com/movie/
The camera is a Minolta Dimage Z1 with a cheapo 180 degree fisheye attached.

I think this might have come up before on this list. Went out to the hangar today
and smelled fuel before i opened it. Turns out i had a puddle of fuel on
the ground under the center "vent". It had come from the left tank and when i
opened the cap i could hear the pressure release (vacuum inside). Seems like
I lost possibly a gallon or two. Any ideas? The tanks were almost topped off
when i put it away last week.

Scooter,
Sounds like a case of vaporizaion and venting. If you are going to top off
your tanks and then put it up in a warm hanger, the YAK is notorious for
venting fuel. Two choices, uncap you tanks to break the seal. Obviously
leave the fuel caps on the mouth of the tank but loose where it will vent.
Another way to remind yourself the you fuel caps are loose is to take the
cover off the wing and turn it 90 degrees out.
The other choice you have is to not top off your tanks when you put it up.
That is assuming you have the standard Russian fuel tanks with the tank
covers (? for lack of anything else to call them?).
Doc
