Wow thats a pretty cool list.
What was the source for the production numbers? Do you have a ball park official
figure of how many CJ6's were constructed?

Hi
Im based in Australia and new to the list, never owned a Yak before, only a
couple of Pitts. I am looking at importing a 55M which is currently
based in NY, 6B9. Would anyone be able to recommend a good Yak person in
the area (or close) who could do a pre-buy?
Thanks
Andrew

Keith,
If you would like to see more photos of my CJ Hana Hou! please use the
following link to Tyson's gallery:

Y/6da54c9da1a5
Hana Hou! (One More Time!) is a 2001 airframe that with Doug Sapp's help
I bought directly from the factory in 2001. Bill Blackwell mounted a
new M14-P on her and put her in flying condition. In 2002 Doug and I
flew her up from Deer Valley, AZ to a field near his home in Omak, WA
for installation of his wing-root aux tanks. In '03 I brought her to my
home field at Aurora State, OR (KUAO). The next few years are not worth
talking about and the plane came close to going into the parts bin.
Then Doug put me in touch with Tom Elliott, and over the last two plus
years Tom completely redid the electrical system, installed the avionics
(twice because Blue Mountain folded and we went with Advanced), finished
up all the mechanical work including installing a number of new mods,
and worked with Gil Hutchinson (our composite and fiberglass secret
weapon) on building and installing (sometimes many times) the fuselage
mods. Along the way we learned an awful lot about drag and airflow.
Like how air can go backward under the cowling, how it can do complete
360s in the engine compartment, how a plastic sewer pipe can be an
aviation godsend, how stacks can cost up to 15 knots and how to have the
fastest plane going up and the slowest coming down. It is indeed a
blessing that we live in a wine growing area!
Nanchang makes a great fuselage equipped with some of the best 1958-1960
vintage equipment available today. My goal was to enhance the fuselage
where possible and then bring the airplane up to modern standards to the
extent possible. With Tom's great work and ideas I think we have come
reasonably close to making the goal.
There are a number of mods that would be fairly easy to replicate and
that make life a bit easier and safer. Others would be more difficult.
As we get the performance numbers nailed down I'll finish my write-up
on the plane and make it available.
Thanks for your comments - I'm glad that Hana Hou! made a good
impression.
