Gary -------------- Original message from "doug sapp" <rvfltd@televar.com>: -------------- Craig, The only way I have been able to do the job is to buy a pair of side cutters that has enough meat in the jaws to grind one side perfectly flat so that you end up with a very fine flat (and very sharp) edge. Place the cutters flat edge down and allow the sharp edges to go under the soft alu collar. Next work around the Duz, pinching off the alu collar as you go around. I do have the proper Chinese Duz fasteners if you need them. When restoring the Miniyak I noticed the all the slots on the stock aircraft were in line with the slip stream. When I attempted to replace the rusted Duz fasteners with US fasteners I found that now all the slots were 90 degrees to the slip stream. A very small point that I am sure no one would notice, but I wanted it to be "as per".

    Subject: Red Air Fall Fling II Update
    All, Red Air Fall Fling II is listed event on the RPA website. For those planning on attending but have not signed up please do so as soon as you plans are finalized. There are 18 aviators that have commited to attend to date (not all signed up through the RPA). We will hold a FAST clinic for those desiring the training. The Tactical Portion is firmly embedded in Jello at this time. Seems more want to fly an hour in fingertip than in tactical. We will be negotiating with the FBO in the next couple of weeks for fuel discounts. Considering that the 30 so aircraft that attended last year burned over 3000 gal of 100 LL.! We expect the same courtesy as was extended last year. As the date nears, we need an exact head count to arrange the logistical support. So please let us know if you plan to attend. As a heads up, Red Air is planning on holding a Spring Fling @ Fairhope 's newly upgraded airport on the Alabama Gulf coast. The date will be coinside with the Fairhope airshow on 19 - 20 May 07. They are hoping for 30 Red Star Aircraft to attend. The accomadations for this past May were outstanding as was the communities' support of those pilots that attended. So saying all, this we (Red Air) plan to help kick off the event by arriving early and playing long! Roger "Doc" Kemp viperdoc@mindspring.com Aint no sound like a Radial

    If anyone needs a excellent Nanchang or YAK DAR in the west it would be Ted DeSantis down in Mesa, AZ. He has done several of my CJs as well as others and really knows his business, especially the paperwork. Give him a call at: 480-924-1602 or 602-565-8706. Tell him Gary Bunn of Prescott sent you.

    Subject: Latest News about SFN Fy-in
    Folks - If the bomb run, bombing a small boat in the middle of a lake in the middle of Sanford, ME weren't reason enough to join us on Sept.14th -17th for Red Star Fall Fly-in. There's a new wrinkle sure to make this a very memorable event. We've been asked to do a mass form fly over of the Portland International Jet Port. This should be fantastic. The altitude has yet to be set, but you can be assured it's going to be lower than pattern. This request has come direct from the Portland tower. So if you haven't registered yet PLEASE DO! And don't forget to book your hotel all the info is on the web site Red Star Fall Fly-in Questions or concerns please contact me directly. jsfox@adelphia.net Hope to see you there! Steve "POTUS" Fox Yak 52 N3043R 603-924-8660 http://homepage.mac.com/steve.fox/PhotoAlbum5.html
