Hi Tom,
Let me get you in touch with Tom Adams. He lives not too far away from
you, was a Yak 55 owner for many years, and a member of the US Advanced
Team for many years. Unless you object, I'll forward your e-mail and
e-mail address to him and let you guys get together. Alternatively, I'll
be happy to teach you, but I am in El Paso, Texas... Not as far as CA,
but probably farther than FL or VA...

Hi Tom,
Before spinning the 52 DO make sure you have good instruction by a pilot who
is really experienced on type.It is a safe plane in that it will always
recover,but with the correct procedure,and without it can bite the unwary!!

You might want to check the rudder cables covers on the floor and make sure
the ends at the rudder bar are trimmed at an angle.
I understand a number of the Russians pros, do this to keep a foot from
getting caught at the heel, during large rudder displacement in spins.

Good advice. I recommend that you remove the plate with the rudder
cable channels, clamp it securely to your work bench so it doesn't
vibrate, and do it with a big flat file. If you take your time doing
it this way, it will look very nice. I'm guessing that some machinist-
type Yak-listers may have a slicker (or quicker) way to do this, but
the primitive method does yield good results. 30 or so degrees will
keep even duty boots from getting caught. People who use racing shoes
or shoes that aren't particularly square in the back may not run in to
this problem.

Tom,
I offer aerobatic instruction, upset recovery,as well as aircraft check outs in
the Yak 52, but unfortunately my locale is not what you are looking for as I
am based out of Oregon.
I have flown competition aerobatics for the past 5 years and have taken the Yak
52 through the intermediate category. If you would like to contact me off line
I would be more than happy to pass on what I have found to work for me. It will
be great to get another 52 flying competition.

The attached article titled "Spins Unspun" was published in a 2002
Quarterly Warbird Flyer of the then Yak Pilots Association. The spin
tests were conducted by the University of Tennessee Space Institute.
For those that have not seen this before, you might find it interesting
and informative.

This is an issue that greatly concerns me,as it should anyone who spins
the 52.
The 52 will always recover,but particularly from a flat spin,recovery is
not always conventional;can be very prolonged;stick forces VERY high.
Martin Stahlik,then number 7 in the World,and a superb aerobatic
pilot,but with no 52 experience,spun down to the ground in a 52.
This is why proper instruction by an experienced 52 instructor is
critical.

Richard,
I have read the various Yak 52 spin literature in the past and have always wondered
if the high stick forces quoted were in a Yak 52 with the original centering
springs (or "bungees" as a lot of people call them) installed. I have flown
Yaks with and without these installed and of course noticed quite a difference
in control feel and forces during maneuvering at the extremes of the envelope.
TIA
