Does some one know how many times its wraped around each one? And the best way to do the job or someone mite have a diagram? Thanks Daniel Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=334718#334718 ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 01:09:55 PM PST US Subject: Re: Yak-List: Yak-52 IFR? From: Cliff Coy *I have made many Yak-52 IFR Certified. The question is how IFR do you want to go? Most EFIS systems meet the requirements for indication. A Garmin SL-30 coupled to a Dynon D10-A will make the aircraft IFR certified for about $7750 installed.
