Denis, I usually try to get temps down to around 150 for the circuit and landing. I haven't seen the 170 on final in any of my manuals and she runs really well doing what we've been doing. Fancy meeting up at Elstree one day? I need to connect with Harry Winter who I think is instructing there and also meet with Tim Debois @ Flight Logistics re filming work.

Nobody has mentioned the Grand Rapids system (or Advancedwhich has a very nice display!) I now have flown with a Grand Rapids EFIS system in my sorta-yak for 6 months. I looked at them allas you shouldto pick out what best suits your needs. The nice thing about the GRT system is that it is a PFD, moving map and EMS all in one. You can split the screens anyway you like. The size is not too bog, not too small (for my needs). It will display GPS, VOR and ILS data very easily. One drawback is that it needs a separate AHRS box mounted (not a very big deal). Check out their website, or drop me a line for more info The newer Dynons were not available when I purchasedthey look like a pretty good deal too as they now have the ability to display some nav information.

It would seem that your engine is running hot, and you should change for a smaller compensating jet. (Rob Kent at White Waltham has complete sets). Also it is a question of technique - that is making sure the engine is well cooled down (but not too cold) on landing, so that you can taxi in; run it for 25 seconds at 65% to scavenge the oil and clean the plugs before shutting down, and still have it below 150=B0.

I am realising from the replies that I've been trained to stick to the higher end of the CHT range, which seems to be not the norm. The instructor who trained me suggested that I keep it high -- 180 to 200 -- quoting a professor at his air force college. I'd get a reprimand any time I allowed CHT to drop to 160. I could easily stick to 150 on final (still a safe margin to the published minimum of 120) and then it will all cool down quickly as you say. I am curious though if anyone has a view as to which end of the range is better for the engine to operate at, as it is quite wide -- 140 to 190 recommended and up to 220 allowed for prolonged operation (as per 18T flight manual). And does the use of the western oil change any numbers from the old Soviet books?

Hi all, I have a 90% chance of being in Sumter, SC for four months starting in early June thru mid Oct. I have a Yak 55 and would like to find a place to keep my plane while I am out there. Please search around and let me know the name of anyone that might be willing to share a hangar or has one temporarily available in about a 75 mile radius. thanks in advance!
