Doc,
Both of my brothers, Richard and Mark, will be arriving on Saturday
morning and would like to be GIB's in my airplane (one at a time of
course) or anyone else that wouldn't mind having them along. I
seriously doubt they will be doing the city tour thing. -)

Yakkers,
Just checked with the Jamison Inn, Selma, Al, they have 26 Red Star
drivers signed up and still have rooms available. If you are planning on
attending, please go to the RPA website and register. Also if you do not
mind drop me an email with your flight time and needs/ interest along
with are you bringing a guest that wants the city tours or is planning
on flying as a GIB?! Seems there are a couple of GIBs that would like to
tour the historic district of Selma with its rich civil war heritage? I
personally plan to be flying when ever I can so the tourist are on
their own!
Seriously, maybe able to get one of the locals to come up with a city
map with historical pertinent on it for the interested.
Remember, Red Air Fall Fling is scheduled for !2 Oct - 15 Oct 06. We
have thanks to the efforts of Scottie Weasle Patterson secured a
discount of 0.50 cents on fuel. So expect around $3.50 for fuel maybe
less. The vans are reserved along with rooms at the Jamison Inn. If you
for got the number to reserve your room, here it is again: 334-874-8600.
12 Oct O6 Arrival with FAST ground school in the afternoonish....have
not heard a hard time hack yet. Time permiting practice form flying in
the afternoon. Am for arrival and helping Scottie setup. Approx
1730-1800, debrief and set schedule for weekend.
Pappy, Linedogg, Weasle, Shane ( we need a call sign for Shane too),
Pumper, Kilo, Ski, LaCloudchaser (do you have a tactical call sign?),and
Hammer, if ya'll can contact me off line we will start a thread on
setting the schedule for the weekend as it pertains to FAST, Tactical,
and Formation Acro. Damned, I would have made my 6th grade English
teacher proud of that run-on broken sentence! How was that Ms. Stuckey?
God rest her pea picking soul!
Thanks,
Viperdoc

Absolutely true. Just checked with my CAF buds at the Dixie wing. Home of the Red
Nose P-51. A couple of the original 51 drivers verified that these were low
pressure O2 tanks so that those 20 mm rounds and Flak did not bring them down
with one pass.

Yes they did but most systems of that time were 400 to 500 PSI type I believe that
the P-51
had 5 or 6 low press bottles. one reason for this was when Flak or rounds hit the
bottles they
would not BLOW the plane up.

Question to that maintenance savy out here. When inflating the main gear of a
CJ-6 (or maybe a Yak), with Nitrogen, do you inflate to the stated strut distance
in the MM or do you use a gauge that can read 720psi?
Thanks for you input..

I've used pressure. I wasn't aware there was strut measurement.

I jack the leg up so the wheel is clear of the floor and set the tank
regulator the desired pressure and then inflate. I do this because
the first time I was inflating I messed up and deflated
the leg... the wing gets lower and lower.... Lucky for me I had made
sure nothing was UNDER the wing so it didn't touch anything and bend
any metal....
Although I have wondered if I should instead just set the jack to
just touching the jack point and not lift the wing at all because the
pressure in the strut might be slightly different with weight of the
plane on it.
comments?

If you have the appropriate tool its easy. A lot of people use an adapter which
doesnt allow them to measure the existing pressure in the strut. With a proper
strut inflation tool, you can measure the correct pressure then fill to spec.
The specs are listed in the manuals, I'm sorry but I dont have them handy, but
they do specity that you do the inflation while on jacks.
