Hi all,
Just heard my partner flew the 18T last week and found the oil
pressure gguage jumping between 3 and zero. I intend to go and check
this next week but any ideas gratefully taken on board. I suspect it's a
lead to the guage but certainly don't want to fly it until we have it
sorted.
On another note, we have an issue with our altimeter. When trying to
enter the pressure settings the subscale will sometimes lock at
990/1000/1010 Mb etc and requires a lot of jiggling to turn it through.
Is there an easy fix?
TIA

Blitz,
The Kmph numbers from the YAK-50 pilots manual are:
VNE - 430
VNE - 470 ( if the ASI is label 500 Kmph only)
Max level flight 400 Kmph.
I cruise at 65% / 700 mmHg seeing 250 kmph with no winds aloft.
Depending on ASI calibration along with other things, like flush verse
button rivets, age of engine, ect, other 50 drivers will see different #'s.
But, they are all going to be in the 240-250 kmph range.
The FAA registry show 36 YAK-50's in the US.

Subject: Yak-List: CJ, Yak 52 & Yak 50 Questions
I'm putting together a tri-fold pocket brochure about the RPA as a hand-out
at OSH this year. In it I plan photos and brief specs for the aircraft
typicall flown by our members. To that end, I'm in search of some
information that I can't seem to find by searching the internet.
1. Does anyone have a reasonably accurate number of CJs and Yak 52s in the
US and Canada? I did find a census of Yak 50s. There appear to be 29 in the
US and none in Canada. Right/wrong?
2. What's the typical cruise speed and Vne for a Yak 50?
3. How many 52TWs & TDs are in the US and Canada?
4. Do the 52TWs uniformly have 400hp M14s?
Thanks, Blitz

Had the same issue with the oil temp gauge in our CJ. Was a loose fitting
cannon plug at the sending unit. Tight on the ground, but would vibrate in
flight and caused the needle to swing. A tie strap fixed it until the annual.

Hey guys, just back from Belize and noted your post. In my filter repack
kit ($17.50 ea) there is a full set of fresh felt filters, a full set of
stainless steel screens, and all the desiccant needed to recharge your
filter. There is no need to reinvent the wheel and cut your own filters or
screens. I also now have the end plates (one on each end of the filter) in
stainless steel. Previously these were made of alu. and were found to be
corroding and causing problems down stream as they fell apart. Once
replaced, your filter will be totally stainless steel with the exception of
the springs which I will have very shortly. If you find that your alu end
plates are corroded you might want to consider purchasing a set of stainless
end plates $10.00 for the pair.
*To assemble the filter:*
Starting from the "Air in" end you have first a stainless steel end plate,
then a stainless screen, then a felt filter pad, then a stainless steel
screen. *NEXT* you add the desiccant, then a screen, then just alternate
felt pad, stainless screen, felt pad, etc., until your out the other end.
You will finish with a stainless steel screen, then use your second
stainless end plate. Put the spring in place on *EACH* end and tighten up
the end caps. *NOTE* the seal DOES NOT happen in the threads it happens as
the 0 ring seals on the lip of the body so don't worry about sealing the
threads. NEXT take your Teflon tape and with your best effort throw the
crap as far away from your aircraft as you can!! Don't use it on your air
system, if you do your just buying trouble somewhere down the road.
Hope all this helps, if you have questions feel free to give me a call @
509-826-4610.
Coming soon---Stainless steel replacement springs for all the air system.

Northeast Formation Clinic
Hey guys,
Many of us in the Northeast dont make it to Sun & Fun every year due to the 600+
mile ride each way. So, this year were having a Spring Clinic of our own.
All you guys in the Carolinas, Tennessee, Georgia, etc., COME ON UP!
RPA Instructors and Check Pilots will be available for anyone needing FAST training.
However, the focus of this clinic will be on developing sound Flight Lead
fundamentals. This training will be provided to all current and prospective
future Flight Leads. The training will geared toward the Leads, but ALL newbies
and wingmen are welcome. Obviously the Leads need someone to lead!
The Spring Clinic will be at Easton, MD (KESN) located on the scenic eastern shore
of Chesapeake Bay. KESN is NOT in the ADIZ, nor do you have to go through
it to get there (unless you start out in the ADIZ). The dates are May 2-4.
Thursday afternoon arrivals are encouraged because everything begins Friday morning.
KESN has two 100 wide runways and a new control tower (non-FAA) staffed with almost
all prior military controllers who love Yaks and 4-ships on initial for the
overhead. They will be riding with us and joining us for after hours entertainment,
which will include a party Friday night at a great private location
on the water.
The Airport Manager is excited about having us and has waived all overnight tie
down fees (please dont divulge this to any non-RPA plane owners), there is a
good restaurant on the airport, and the FBO will provide a discount on all fuel.
Jim Meadows has personally inspected and secured a discounted rate ($90) for us
at the Comfort Inn only two miles from the airport. It is a clean newer hotel
with a Dennys next door. Call ASAP to get the discounted RedStar rate. (410-820-8333).
Jim and I will provide a Suburban and an SUV for attendees use, which along with
driving our other cars should negate the need for anyone to have to rent a car.
If you havent already done so, please let me know if youre coming as soon as you
can. I need an estimate of the numbers for planning purposes. And keep your
fingers crossed for good weather!
-Steve Dalton
