    Subject: YAK 55M Pre-buy
    Border Air in Vermont is not too far away. They have been assembling and maintaining Yaks for GESOCO for years. They also have the necessary equipment to disassemble and pack the airplane should you decide to buy it. They are also familiar with shipping to Australia with its special requirements. Contact Cliff Coy at cliff.coy@gmail.com From: owner-yak-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-yak-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of andrew richards Sent: Thursday, November 11, 2010 11:31 PM Subject: Yak-List: YAK 55M Pre-buy 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

    Vince Tripi is a mechanic who has worked on several Yaks (50,52, and 55),and SUkhoi 26 and 29. He expertly maintains my air show Sukhoi. Vince has maintained a Yak 55 for another customer for years and may have done the last annual on the aircraft you are buying. He has crated two Pitts aircraft for me , sent to Europe for sale. He. Is good. You can reach him at 716-863-8865 Rick Volker Sent from my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry -----Original Message----- From: andrew richards <andrewrichards7@gmail.com> Sender: owner-yak-list-server@matronics.com Hi Im based in Australia and new to the list, never owned a Yak before, only a couple of Pitts.

    HOT DAMN! That Tyson can sure take a good picture! Of course it helps if the subject is good looking too.

In '03 I brought her to my home field at Aurora State, OR (KUAO). The next few years are not worth talking abo ut 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 completel y redid the electrical system, installed the avionics (twice because Blue Mountain folded and we went with Advanced), finished up all the mechanica l work including installing a number of new mods, and worked with Gil Hutc hinson (our composite and fiberglass secret weapon) on building and instal ling (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 co ming 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 rea sonably 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.

    Subject: RE: Nanchang Registry
    Harv Far too many sources. Some straight from the Manufacturer (http://www.hongd u.com.cn/) Most civil stuff straight off the civil registry's. Military air craft are from a variety of sources (still several hundred military CJ6 / P T6 not listed yet) Hongdu (Nanchang) says they have over 2400 built now Cheers Matt

    Just a note on this rockstar CJ...strolling through the "swamp" (Warbirds / AirVenture '10) my ADD girlfriend - while mildly impressed w/ the big iron - FLIPPED over HANA HOU! I could not get her to move on, even after 20 minutes of lustful-looking! I believe you were also there, Hal. Cuz a very accommodating gentleman was on the wing graciously taking rapid-fire questions from the gathering admirers. It is a wonder to behold in person!
