I have now spoken to Jez. It is their own design done for Yakovlevs
display team but the badges are available at
http://www.yakovlevs.com/shop.asp?p=shop
Scroll down to Yak Name Badge. Jez said to sure to say if you need
velcro which is 1 UKP extra. Postage is relatively high so it may be
worth all you US guys doing one order for the lot and then
redistributing from one location there? Sorry the dollar/pound rate
isn't so hot at the moment. For you anyway:-)
Good Luck
Happy Landings

Talon,
Have you talked to Dennis? He usually keeps a few spares around. I have a
strut seal kits for the 50. But you need the actuator seal kits correct?

To all what is the general feeling about these changes at Sun n Fun.

Sun 'n Fun Crowd to Get an Up-Close Look
By _Rick Rousos_

The Ledger
LAKELAND - The Sun 'n Fun Fly-In experience will improve immeasurably when
the Fly-In opens its flight line in April, at no extra charge, to all of its
customers. The flight line features the most enticing attractions.
The majestic warbirds, mostly fighter planes that date back as far as World
War I, have always been one of Sun 'n Fun's most popular exhibits.
The warbird area will be open to the general public, along with
"Choppertown," the vintage aircraft area and the experimental, or homebuilt, area.
The
change will allow people to get closer to planes on the runway. And because
pilots tend to hang out by their planes, there will be much more interaction
between customers and pilots.
Opening the flight line was obviously a business decision for Sun 'n Fun.
But Sun 'n Fun President John Burton said it was also a common-sense decision.
"Our mission is to expose aviation to the general public," particularly
children, Burton said. "This was the way to do it."
Wayne Boggs, Sun 'n Fun's director of operations, put it another way. "If
doing this attracts just one child to a career in aviation, then it's worth
it," he said.
At past Fly-Ins, only visitors who were members of the extended aviation
family or the Florida Air Museum on the Sun 'n Fun campus were given special
armbands that served as admission through the gates at the flight line, which
were watched by security guards.
Or, members of the general public could take a tractor-powered tram tour of
the flight line for $3. But the tram doesn't get people as close to the
powered-off airplanes.
The areas always open to the general public included workshops, ultralights,
aviation concessions, the food court and a good, if not great, view of the
daily air show.
One of the biggest gripes of people was that they couldn't get near the
flight line, with the complaints going something like this: "I'm paying all this
money and don't get to see the whole place."
A general admission ticket in recent years has gone for $30, $25 with an
Experimental Aircraft Association or Air Museum membership. Burton said ticket
prices this year won't be raised. He said there will be another incentive to
attract local residents to the 2007 Fly-In, but details haven't been finalized.
There are a number of reasons Sun 'n Fun had maintained a policy that kept
the general public at a distance. The first is safety and the second is "the
belt buckle factor."
Burton said the safety concern of bigger crowds on the flight line has been
about the well-being of the public, the pilots and the airplanes.
"But we've got about 200 volunteers on the flight line," Burton said. He
said those workers will be instructed to keep customers out of danger and from
getting too close to the airplanes.
That's where the belt buckle factor, sometimes known as the suspender
factor, comes in. Cockpits in airplanes can be very cool, but quite high off the
ground, and people want to see them. So they climb up on the plane, Burton
said, and scratch it with their belt buckle.
The 2007 Fly-In is April 17-23.

| Subject: | Stuff FS:Clearing out hangar clutter |
Gents,
I am clearing out some clutter in my hangar (too much stuff) and I
have the following available for the CJ-6/Yak-52, I will send the
prop and the compressor to a Starman Auction if the don't sell here.
These items were removed from my a/c when I did an M-14 mod a few
years ago:
- One stock JS-9 propellor and crate with log (removed airworthy)
- Set of stock exhaust headers
- one set of gill shutters and axles
- one inner gill shutter ring
- M14P generator (formerly in Yak-52)
- 3000 PSI High Pressure air compressor - a pickled military unit
that comes as a tiny trailer.. pretty slick. I got it to pressurize
the air system but haven't yet un-pickled it. It will fill a large
air bottle as it uses a four cylinder gas engine to run it. If
interested I will send pics.
Make a sensible offer for any or all.
Thanks

Well, that's special. Will they feel as open hearted after a "customer" FOD's a
cockpit or the cute little 3 year "future in aviation" tears away from Momma's
arms and races into a prop? Yes sir, one of those 200 volunteers will be there
to catch them.
Set up a static display area but still cordon off the aircraft so those pilots
that do not want people climbing over their planes even though they parked in
the static display area.
I personally always enjoy shooing off the little body buiders that like to try
to do chinups on my Pitot tube! Not to forget the syrupy ice cone that was dropped
by Jr. on the taxiway by one of the customers allowed to wonder the flightline
a recient airshow/fly-in I attended. I was thrill to find the purple and
red goo under my belly after taxiing over melting pool. Of course there was also
the couple that had to move out from under my wing serving as a shade tree
for them so I could participate in the flyby. Guess they were not to happy either
when they moved their lawn chairs to rear of the airplane directly into
the prop blast when the engine started. They were warned by the "volunteers" though.
I know, "Doc, your are being so "customer" unfriendly." Well it is my liablity
insurance that will looked at by the lawyers looking for those with "deep pockets"
when someone gets hurt by my airplane too.
