    Subject: A solid example of flight and crew coordination
    Doc, I should have clarified as done for another email group, the assistance comes from his element lead (3), the comment comes from the large amount of backseat work the RPA does - if your volunteering to help train folks in the backseat and you find yourself in a bad situation, there will be a need for you to assist the PIC while not overloading them with "good ideas" ;) , from reading the emergency checklists, etc. Just injecting a bit of calm feedback, perhaps doing one or two things that unloads the immediate workload of the PIC and working as a team can possibly change the outcome...we've had several "there I was..." dual cockpit accounts in the association where this came in to play. Drew ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 07:03:15 AM PST US From: Drew Subject: Yak-List: A solid example of flight and crew coordination in an emergency Folks, This vid may have already made the rounds, but I think it's a good example of coordination among a four ship recovering an emergency in the flight, and crew coordination in the emergency aircraft. Everything from maintaining flight member SA, providing aircraft to aircraft support / input, when to talk from the backseat and when to keep mum, to some idea why our manual promotes the use of position numbers over terms like "lead", a good vid to review all around... http://www.patricksaviation.com/videos/SUPERGT/3384/ Drew You can also reach me at lacloudchaser@gmail.com You can also reach me at lacloudchaser@gmail.com

    All of the -52s I have flown, when I have had the G-warn system turned on (rare), the light and warning tone starts at around 5G. It starts to just nibble at the tone and light, and is usually on full by 7G. Sounds normal based on the others I have flown.

    The light/tone is tied to the front cockpit g-meter. You can disconnect the connector on back of g-meter to stop the annoyance. You can try swapping g-meters between front/back for a solution. Or you can re-calibrate g-meter. Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=197129#197129

    If you recalibrate it to hold off until +7g by the time it sounds off it's too late to moderate your flight path and by definition you'll have exceeded the limits, that's why it starts at around +5, to give you a margin ! ----- Original Message ----- > From: "LawnDart" <propwash@gmail.com> > To: <yak-list@matronics.com> > Sent: Thursday, August 07, 2008 3:55 PM > Subject: Yak-List: Re: +7g? > > >> >> The light/tone is tied to the front cockpit g-meter.

    Subject: Yak-52 Service Bulletins
    Yak-52 Service Bulletins As I have said before, it is very worrying when 52 pilots say that they "have the heavy spar" and go off and fly a 52 hard, indeed at +7G. There is no such thing as a "heavy spar". The simple facts are: a.. There are 114 Service Bulletins for the 52. Many of these are trivial, covering such items as paperwork changes. b.. HOWEVER 23 of them are serious Structural Bulletins. The principle wing modifications are: a.. 59 - strengthening of the wing mounting (on the wing). b.. 60 - strengthening the centre-section. c.. 107 - external spar strap extending for approximately 1 meter from the inboard section of the wing, on the bottom. d.. In addition 80 and 88 further modify 59. e.. 107 is extremely easy to check. f.. 59 and 60, also easy IF you know what you are looking for. g.. What concerns me is MANY logbooks have been falsified, claiming that Service Bulletins have been embodied when they have not. h.. So, if you have an early aircraft the ONLY way to be sure is to have it checked by someone who does know these SB's, and how to identify them. i.. Alternatively any aircraft built after 1988 is likely to have all SB's installed with the exception of 107. Aircraft built after early 1991 should have 107 installed. j.. The positive point is that the 52 is VERY strong, and no 52 has ever had catastrophic structural failure. This is despite 2,000 being built, and the majority being flown extremely hard. k.. However each Service Bulletin has been devised because of structural problems being observed, and is there for a good purpose.

    Subject: Exhaust
    I have had exhaust issues with my CJ since I first bought it 10 years ago. Despite wearing O2 over 5,000' I would still end long days tired. Just before I left for OSH this year I had 5" extensions added onto the exhaust stacks. The result was instantaneous and much appreciated by John and myself - virtually no exhaust in the cabin at all save some small wifts during maneuvers. The belly on my plane also stayed clean throughout the 30+hours I have flown in the last two weeks. I can't tell that it added drag as my airspeeds were pretty much the same. However, bringing it back at 45 degrees or so would probably help. I'm much more interested in clean air! (One would have to ask others as to whether my thinking was better or not.) Batman

    Subject: Foul Air in the Cockpit
    Batman, Are you wearing nasal Cannulas for your O2 about 5000 ft or were you wearing an aviator's mask? If you were flying with a nasal cannula, you still were breathing your ambient cabin air. If that air was contaminated with CO then you are going to still be breathing CO hence the extreme fatigue, headaches and even disorientation at the end of the flight. I bet if you went to your local pulmonologist or the ER and had a arterial Blood gas drawn your carboxy hemoglobin levels would have been impressive to say the least. No you cannot wear an oximeter an protect yourself from hypoxia that is due to CO. The oxyhemoglobin and carboxy hemoglobin both absorb the infrared light at the same wavelength therefore you get a false reading normal reading. The only way to get CO out of your cockpit is either don't fly the YAK/CJ, completely seal the cockpit, install a CO scrubber, or Install an Aviator's O2 system using a military O2 mask. I worked on and developed a Carbon Monoxide scrubber system that no one showed any interest in so it was canned. I installed an aviator's system in my 50 and wear the mask during taxi, run-up, TO, hi alpha procedures, landing, taxi, and run-up to shut down. I have a Drager CO monitor (not cheap) that has a computer interface program allowing me to measure the CO in all phases of flight. The worst is during taxi, TO, climb out, hi alpha procedures, landing, taxi, and run-up to shut down. During those times, the CO levels exceed 50 to 75 PPM (the acceptable Permissible exposure limits (PEL) for CO is <50 PPM). During run-up to shutdown, I have seen as numbers as high as >100 ppm. Yes I have sealed up a significant part of my cockpit. I have not closed off the tail section yet. Bottom line you are sucking bad air and it is making you feel bad at the end of the day. CO has an affinity of 200 times that of O2 for the red blood cell. It takes up to 12 hours after exposure to get it off the RBC after exposure breathing 21% room air. And you don't even get hi breathing this shit! Doc
