    Don, The aircraft is operated under Part 91 and Part 91 says; (c) Visual flight rules (night). For VFR flight at night, the following instruments and equipment are required: (1) Instruments and equipment specified in paragraph (b) of this section. (You should already have all the required instruments and equipment - Day VFR) (2) Approved position lights. (3) An approved aviation red or aviation white anticollision light system on all U.S.-registered civil aircraft. Anticollision light systems initially installed after August 11, 1971, on aircraft for which a type certificate was issued or applied for before August 11, 1971, must at least meet the anticollision light standards of part 23, 25, 27, or 29 of this chapter, as applicable, that were in effect on August 10, 1971, except that the color may be either aviation red or aviation white. In the event of failure of any light of the anticollision light system, operations with the aircraft may be continued to a stop where repairs or replacement can be made. (4) If the aircraft is operated for hire, one electric landing light. (Not Applicable) (5) An adequate source of electrical energy for all installed electrical and radio equipment. (6) One spare set of fuses, or three spare fuses of each kind required, that are accessible to the pilot in flight. (Circuit Breakers should meet this requirement) ----- Original Message ----- From: Don Milbourn To: yak-list@matronics.com Sent: Saturday, August 04, 2007 8:35 AM Subject: Yak-List: Flying at night Hi all I have a Yak 52 on the operation limitation it says day VFR only.

    Subject: Re: Flying at night
    Guys, The root problem is still the same as it has been for years. There is NO " standard" at the Flight Standards offices throughout the US. Some are good some are bad. The are all run as individual thief dooms with each guy forcing his own will and personal reading of the FARs upon those fortunate or unfortunate enough to live in his area. I have seem copy of ops letter so crazy that it was obvious that the writer was applying jet rules to the Yak. One letter said that flights out of the pro area for lower fuel prices were authorized, my own op letter says "Flights out of the proficiency area for the sake of proficiency are authorized". HUH?? Sorry to be so negative but that's just the way it is, and until we can get our local FSDO to ask for a clarification if they don't understand we won't have any "standard" or continuity of rule and regs. They seem to take it VERY personally if you buck them and they make it VERY clear that your better think twice about pushing to hard. Paperwork gets delayed, minutia suddenly becomes of paramount importance. When did you say you wanted to fly your aircraft...........? So YES you can show them the regs and YES you are probably correct, but you have made them look bad, the Chinese call it loosing face, and trust me you WILL pay a price for your being right unless you are VERY diplomatic. The best way I have found is to gather copies of several good ops letters and submit them with you paperwork citing the FAR for each, takes a bit of work on your part and actually saves him a bunch of work. It also gives him a real clear picture of not only the facts but what other FSDO's are doing as well.

    I have had it when priming too much. Be careful when priming. You may start a fire. I have already started a fire once. I was very lucky to have friends with fire extinguishers in the neighborhood. No damage thanks to their rapid intervention! The fire I started, was entirely my own fault, being unexperienced with the Yak. IMHO, when the engine does not start easily, there's some problem. For best practices, try to have someone with a fire extinguisher in the neighborhood when starting. Of course, this is not always possible.

    Many OL's say something like the following: "Unless appropriately equipped for night and/or instrument flight in accordance with FAR 91.205, this aircraft shall be operated Day VFR only." Mine does. If it does not say that, then Brian is spot on and the OL's would have to be amended regardless of the fact that you installed the equipment required by 91.205.

    HERE......HERE......I am glad that we got both sides of this story. I know that George and Cliff had similar issues and un-paid bills from another Yak 52TW owner with a large panel build. These aircraft are not common plus many people and A&P's have very little and no experience working with these great aircraft (let alone work with Cyrillic letters). I have worked with Gulf Coast before and they have always been professional on the phone and worked to help resolve a bad used radio I purchased. 5 months later after purchasing the radio went bad and they sent me a replacement. That is pretty good service. I hope everyone knows that there is always two sides of each story and we must be able to read when someone embellishes the story to his side also. Someone always knows the total truth. Lets all work together to keep these fine aircraft flying and help each other so we know when someone is really bad with service and to help keep everyone from accidents to keep our insurance premiums down. Lets keep our heads up and keep fly right. Be safe........ SHREK -----Original Message----- From: owner-yak-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-yak-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Brad M. Sent: Thursday, August 02, 2007 3:19 PM Subject: Yak-List: Re: Beware To all reading this posting, I would like to remind everyone that there are always two sides to every story. As with any installation things can come up that are unexpected and unplanned, especially when dealing with such a unique aircraft as the YAK. Were there issues yes, were there delays of course, and as the manager I take full responsibility! Was the aircraft in our facility for 4 months, no! It was 3 months. Still a long time when we expected 4 weeks. Changes and customizations that had to be made to accomidate components goint places were it "looks" like it should fit. Fabrication of mount structure that do not exist, or would not work. Just as in the case of the autopilot, we were assured by the manufacturer that there were lots of installations, and come to find out that we were providing the documentation and mounting for future installs after the fact. Fabricating custom brackets, having special made parts shipped back and forth. All of which lead to delays. When the aircraft was to picked up did the main hydraulic line have a tear in it? Absolutely! Should we be held responsible for that absolutely not!. The brake line was the wrong type line, it was standard clear soft plastic static tubing, not designed for corrosive fluids. Once we found where the fluid going when the reservoir was filled, we found the hose broken at a clamp where the fluid had caused the hose to become deteriorated. It was not just a broken line due to negligence, and it was not the only line, that was bad, the entire brake system was put together with that tubing. When a mechanic was found who was willing to work on the ship, he had to replace all the lines! I could easily respond to every point, and the fact is there are always two sides, neither is ever completely right or wrong, we are the first to tell you we are not perfect. However the bottom line when Mr. Gauge left with the aircraft after the squawks he had listed were repaired, OVER ONE YEAR AGO, that was the last we had heard of any problems until now! His many letters were one we received prior to his posting. Gulf Coast Avionics would not be rated in the top 20 every year by all the manufacturers we support if we were not doing something right. We are not in the business of leaving any customer with problems. Regards, Brad Miller Service Manager Gulf Coast Avionics Corp.

Any other 50 or 55 drivers have this > experience? Perhaps it is a good idea to think about what is happening when you prime your engine so you have an idea what to expect and what can happen. The Housai and M14 engines inject the primer at the top of the supercharger housing. (I think that the idea was that the gasoline on the large surface area of the supercharger impeller would vaporize better, especially with the supercharger rotating as the engine starts.) Regardless, if you put a lot of prime in there it is going to drip to the bottom of the housing where it will either go into the intake risers for the lower cylinders and/or, if it flows down the blades of the impeller toward the the aft central part, out through the carburetor. If it does that it will drip out the carb into the airbox and then out the bottom of the air box. To be honest, if you have fuel dripping out of the airbox you have probably put in too much prime. It is a good idea to have someone rotate the prop one blade for every shot of primer to better distribute the prime around in the supercharger housing. In that case there is less chance it will find its way out through the carburetor or pool in the intake riser tubes. BTW, a big slug of primer in the intake riser tubes can be sucked up and cause a hydraulic lock just like a slug of oil will. So, if your engine doesn't fire after about three blades, you did something wrong. Continuing to pump in primer is probably not the best solution unless you know for a fact that you are under primed. -- Brian Lloyd 3191 Western Drive brian HYPHEN 1927 AT lloyd DOT com Cameron Park, CA 95682 +1.916.367.2131 (voice) +1.270.912.0788 (fax) I fly because it releases my mind from the tyranny of petty things . . .

    Mark, Be advised, someone is doing the same thing to you. Pulling emails off the yak-list and sending out hate mail about your business practices under the name email name of "Mad Dog" (reminds me of what I am drinking as I write this) . My spam filter caught it and I deleted same. Had the sender included specifics, perhaps I would inquire further. Gulf Coast is in my backyard and the people I worked for did a lot of purchase and install business with them. 2 points: 1) our problems with their installation always got resolved but (2) it took a persistent and concerted effort on our behalf to effect that outcome. I can also say the same about our dealings with the other Big Name shops in Florida. Craig Payne cpayne@joimail.com

    Subject: Yak 50 priming drip
    Jon, How many strokes are you injecting into the supercharger. The primer line attaches to the top of the supercharger the same as on the 52. Everything said earlier on the list is correct. If you charge the system to much some fuel may run out of the carburetor throat. The is a lot of fuel if your priming is on the cylinder side (on the 50, the primer is rotated inboard. To pressurize the carb/fuel system, the primer plunger is rotated out board on the 50). Just so we know, and not to ask a stupid question either. But are you priming the supercharger or are you pressurizing the system? I have seen fuel running down the throat of my carb after I scavenge the system. I see the blue drops at the back of my carb. It really was not coming from my carb though. It was coming from the overflow vent on the left lower side of the fuel pump. That was the first sign that I had seals in my fuel pump diaphragm going bad. The second sign was that oil began to drip out of the overflow drain pipe. I could not find the source for the fuel and then the oil drip which was very slow. And aggravating to find too! One day when I was up under the engine with the cowl off with a flashlight and spanner wrench tightening the lower exhaust collars trying to chase down the leak. A drip from the overflow tube on the left side of the fuel pump blessed me by hitting me in the face! So saying all that, don't assume that it is from only the carb. You may well have some diaphragms wearing out in the carburetor but after a couple of discussions with Rob Kent in England, Carl Hayes, and Steve Culp with Dennis and I both scratching our heads, all confirmed that it was extremely rare to have a problem with the carburetor (Dennis too). So look at the overflow vent on the left side of the fuel pump. If you have you have any fluid dripping down from the side, you have a pump diaphragm seal going bad. That will be followed by the oil seal going bad with the symptom of oil dripping from the Overflow vent. Oh, I also saw fuel residue on the drip pan after she sat for a for a couple of days in the hanger. I also saw it dripping out of the back of the air breather box where the ram horns would attach if I still had mine on the plane. I saw that after shutdown, with it sitting for a little while, and I vaguely remember seeing a few drops after I primed and pulled blades. Maybe this helps some too.

    Amigos...this recent talk about primers got me looking for one and I found a new one on ebay for 100 bucks. They state it's for all Yaks etc and being a two way item, it primes the cyls and / or pressures the carb. I'm installing a Huosai and know bugger all about the primer needs. Is this type of primer something I should grab right now or would some other arrangement be more suitable ...ie ..electric etc. ?

    Dave, I have a YAK which has an M-14P. The primers for both the M-14 and the Housai are the same. I would personally trust on from Doug Sapp, Carl Hayes, Steve Culp, Rob Kent or George Coy long before I would trust the one one EBAY for the highest bidder. Since it is my rosey pink that is dependent on that part, I prefer getting it from someone has supplied me with reliable parts in the past. To answer the rest of your question, yes you need that type primer. You could come up with an electric pump to do the job also at a higher cost. I prefer the existing one that I have which the factory stock one.

They state it's for all Yaks etc and being a two way item, it primes the cyls and / or pressures the carb. I'm installing a Huosai and know bugger all about the primer needs. Is this type of primer something I should grab right now or would some other arrangement be more suitable ...ie ..electric etc. ? Or..if some lister can sell me one direct, that would be my preferred route. Thanks...
