    Hi Didier, I think simple economics-the price will go up;people in the west will have the incentive to make the parts,and the engines will go on being rebuilt,but at greater cost!!

Or will the price of the motors get higher and higher because of th demand? kind regards Didier 2009/10/26 Richard Goode <richard.goode@russianaeros.com> For those who are interested in these things, I have just returned from Moscow, and met with Yakovlev. The order (which was between the Russian Minister of Transport and the Smolensk factory for sixty 18Ts was actually extended to a further fifteen, which were old airframes and rebuilt. These aircraft have been delivered, but there have been huge problems trying to get sufficient engines, and although nominally new we know that large amounts of the engines are actually overhauled components! The Ministry has asked for further planes, but it would seem that there are insufficient engines for the order to be taken.

    To Rick Volker - thanks for the extra figures - that makes a lot more sense. Certainly the figures from Kevin Kimball make a lot of sense, and are broadly in line with my own experience. I am however surprised that there should be less thrust from a MTV-260-29 than from a 250. Certainly the tests that we have done with MT showed that the 260 gives significantly more static thrust, but loses out a bit in terms of top speed. I was also interested that Rick says that the MTV-9 is slower than the V-530, whereas Kimball says the reverse, and again that is my experience. The practicality is that the V-530 is fifty year old technology, and obviously things have moved on.

    I would like to offer some information on the Dynamic balancing of these props. All of these props should be able to be dynamically balanced. Even the 530 without a spinner. I have balanced many 530's without spinners with no problem, even down to .01 - .03 ips. As long as the prop and engine are functioning properly the can be balanced. If any of the props don't seem to want to balance and you are for sure that the prop is in good working order and set up properly, then the problem will most likely be with the engine.
