Jim, thank you for your comment. I have the most admiration for Dennis and hearing
from him is always welcome.
I agree, a great pilot is made by a great flight instructor and a flight instructor
is responsible for giving that solid base to a student. A good instructor
isnt born over night.... a good CFI, garners more skill and experience in putting
things across clearly to the student but there must be some underlying qualities...
I will say these include a passion for aviation, being willing to
teach and a desire to share that love of flying with others.

not a whole lot of difference in stall speed. But of course there is lots of
drag. To me, this means when the power comes off, the RATE of deceleration
is a lot faster than no flap. That's good thing. The reason one appears to
"float" with no flap is not so much due to ground effect, a slow rate of deceleration
with the lack of drag. That exposes one to the drift of a cross wind
longer. Ground effect does play a part, but its the same. GE comes into effect
at 1/2 the wing span of any aircraft. The only flaps that increase its
effect substantially are the high lift types are Flower and double and triple
slotted types.

There has been a lot of good advice posted here already. Practice is the
common thread. A high % of ac accident happen in the low speed part of the
envelop of any aircraft design. As a chief checkpilot for a CAP wing, my "big
thing" was checking the pilots skill in all realms in the low speed envelop.
I made sure the other checkpilots did as well. We had a very good safety
record. A lot of times and time and again on this list, we've pointed out
the importance of training and practice. Just look at the Wrights brothers.
How many times did they "practice" before they got it right?

Most likely the check valve on the starboard firewall above the start solenoid.
Mine was leaking not so long ago. Doug Sapp has an overhaul kit, assuming your

Look for a corroded check valve going over to the emergency side. If it is
stuck closed the compressor won't be able to charge the emergency side.

Protection valve is a check valve.
For the Yak 52, the check valve for the emergency system is inside the
fuselage, just behind the external air fill port. You can test this
fairly easily, if it is a check valve leak. After filling the system
from the external air fill port, spray some soapy water on the external
port opening and see if it bubbles. If it does, the check valve I just
mentioned is leaking.
Before going further, let's do the simple test above and let me know
what you find.

Good point. There is a test that one can do to see if the problem is
one of the emergency air valves. Very easy to do.
- Observe and write down the pressure in both the emergency and main
systems.
- With the main air valve off, (assuming both emergency valves are
closed tightly), squeeze the brake handle until all air is depleted in
the system or until you no longer hear the "woosh" sound when you
release the brake handle.
- Now leave the pneumatic system alone overnight or for at least for a
few hours.
- When you come back to the airplane, squeeze the brake handle again and
if you hear the "woosh" sound again AND the emergency side of the
pressure instrument has leaked down, one of the two emergency air valves
is leaking.
Now it is just a matter of isolating which valve is leaking.

Sorry Mark. I was thinking CJ6A. Emergency side is filled from the
compressor.

Mark answered. The CJ6A fills the emergency system from the engine-driven
compressor through a check valve.

Dennis,
Some air leaks can be insidious. Picked up a used ultrasonic leak detector on eBay
for a little over $100 and this has helped me to cure all the leaks in both
the main and emergency systems. With the probe tip properly placed, even the
smallest leak is easy to locate.

Warren,
You are 110% on the money. I have one myself. But yours must be better
than mine. Probably because I paid too much for it in the first place.
:-) I assumed Bill did not have one and gave him the two easiest
troubleshooting procedures based on the most common causes of emergency
system leaks. Hopefully the soapy water on the external air fill port
will show the problem. If not, I'll help him figure it out.

eBay for a little over $100 and this has helped me to cure all the leaks in both
the main and emergency systems. With the probe tip properly placed, even the
smallest leak is easy to locate.

On the CJ if you wish to charge the emergency tank only, for example
with nitrogen rather than air simply leave the main air valve closed.
Probably applies to the Yak 50 as well

On a YAK-52, the emergency bottle is not filled by the compressor.
Only by the external fill port.
On the YAK-50, the compressor charges both main and emergency.

Sorry Mark. I was thinking CJ6A. Emergency side is filled from the
compressor.

Matt,
Whilst on the subject of "problems", something that's been bugging me for a
while.
On my Android phone I don't see the body of SOME of the yak list messages.
I've nailed it down to the ones that are HTML formatted, and was wondering
if those were the ones that people are using the web site to post to.
It seems particular to the android (outlook sees them ok). However, other
HTML formatted messages from other people can be read ok on the android.
Wondered if the yak list server was doing something strange with the HTML
(maybe has an HTML error in it) that outlook ignores and the android rejects
- refusing to display the content?
Any ideas?
Nigel.
