    Subject: 18T rib stiching
    Hi Yak listers, - Does anyone know or have a pic on how the wing fabric is stiched onto the w ing ribs on an 18T?. The tail was simple enough as are the ailerons but the re are no stiching holes on the wing ribs, except for one or two. Surely no t enough to hold the fabric on. - Thanks, Anthony.=0A=0A=0A

    Will send you pics and possibly film of stitching this evening. I am afraid the film may be over 20Mo and I am Mott sure to know how to put i t over the web but I will try. We so not use the holes on the rib it is dangerous because the wire gets cut so we go around the rib but there is a specific way of doing the knots and h iding them. If you like I can send you a scan of the Polyfiber Method.

    I've tried several searches looking for discussion regarding pros and cons of adding a lubricant to the air system and get hundreds of topics, but none related to what I'm looking for. Any suggestions on how to word the search appreciated Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=322843#322843

    Bill, The CJ Tech Spec manual goes into detail about how much oil to add and where it should be added. I am not close to my books now or would look it up for you. A word of caution. Do not squirt oil into the filter on the compressor, you are just flushing junk into the compressor and you will end up gumming up the poppet valve. Also, do not over do the amount of oil you add to the system. Keeping the system DRY is of equal or greater importance than keeping it oiled. Check your manuals and add the recommended amount of oil or oil and glycerin mix. Many of the actuators which I have been getting in to overhaul or as exchanges for new units have little or no grease left in them because it has all been washed out by the addition of light weight oils to the pneumatic system. Without grease to lubricate the locking balls and the 0 rings the actuator will self destruct in a very short time.

    What I think of that (since you asked) is that you need to be very very careful of what you add to Russian pneumatic systems. My first exposure to the YAK List about a decade or so again was when I read about putting all manner of things into the pneumatic system to prevent rust in actuators. I did exactly as was suggested. The next thing that happened is that the Chevron Seals in my YAK-50 landing gear actuators actually dissolved. By the grace of God I managed to get the gear down with the emergency system. I then wrote my first long article on how to go about pulling the landing gear actuators and replacing the seals in a YAK-50. I did not follow any manuals like Doug Sapp is recommending. Instead I followed the advice given on the Yak List. In this particular case, that advice turned out to be less than good. Be careful of what you add to Russian pneumatic systems. WHAT you add and HOW MUCH you add. What is "good stuff" for preventing rust, can sometimes be BAD JU-JU for rubber seals.

    Rick, Coating/sloshing (then draining it well) a new bottle with ACF50 should not be a problem. Dumping a bunch in and leaving it there to migrate through the air system might cause problems as it just might have a bad effect on the rubber parts and seals down stream.

    *OK....I'll throw my hat into this ring. The Yakovlev pneumatic system is a *greased* system, not an oiled one. The assemblies and valves are to be dis-assembled and re-greased every 500hrs or 5 years (whichever occurs first). There has been many a witches brew suggested to inject into the system- ie. air tool oil. This has the effect of washing the grease out of the system. Washing the grease out of the flap and gear selectors puts the two rotating plates in direct contact causing scoring and ..... leakage. The 90% alcohol / Glycerin mix injected into the air bottles is to glom ont o the engine oil and water that makes it past the filter to reduce the incidence of corrosion. If you're operating in high humidity areas, then I'd change the alcohol/ glycerin mix and regrease the system more often.

    Cliff is spot on, glycerin is a humectant (attracts water) and so is alcohol. I have posted about this in the past. I have used glycerin mixed 30% with alcohol (70%) in the past and it seems to work well.

    Subject: lubricating the air system search
    Here in the humid Western part of Europe, we do as instructed by our Russian inspectors: inject a 50/50 volume mixture of pure glycerine and 90% ethanol with a needle right into the actuators. Only a few cc. Not too much! And of course Cliff is right about the overhaul every 500 hours or 5 years.

    Subject: lubricating the air system search
    I have used your 30/70% formula in the air bottles for 4 years now. Seems to work well. Approaching time now to pull the actuators and grease them. What weight grease are ya=99ll using on the seals?

I have posted about this in the past. I have used glycerin mixed 30% with alcohol (70%) in the past and it seems to work well. Doug On Fri, Dec 10, 2010 at 11:43 AM, Cliff Coy <cliff.coy@gmail.com> wrote: OK....I'll throw my hat into this ring. The Yakovlev pneumatic system is a *greased* system, not an oiled one. The assemblies and valves are to be dis-assembled and re-greased every 500hrs or 5 years (whichever occurs first). There has been many a witches brew suggested to inject into the system- ie. air tool oil. This has the effect of washing the grease out of the system. Washing the grease out of the flap and gear selectors puts the two rotating plates in direct contact causing scoring and ..... leakage. The 90% alcohol / Glycerin mix injected into the air bottles is to glom onto the engine oil and water that makes it past the filter to reduce the incidence of corrosion. If you're operating in high humidity areas, then I'd change the alcohol/ glycerin mix and regrease the system more often.

My first exposure to the YAK List about a decade or so again was when I read about putting all manner of things into the pneumatic system to prevent rust in actuators. I did exactly as was suggested. The next thing that happened is that the Chevron Seals in my YAK-50 landing gear actuators actually dissolved. By the grace of God I managed to get the gear down with the emergency system. I then wrote my first long article on how to go about pulling the landing gear actuators and replacing the seals in a YAK-50. I did not follow any manuals like Doug Sapp is recommending. Instead I followed the advice given on the Yak List. In this particular case, that advice turned out to be less than good. Be careful of what you add to Russian pneumatic systems. WHAT you add and HOW MUCH you add. What is "good stuff" for preventing rust, can sometimes be BAD JU-JU for rubber seals.
