This lightened my a/c by something like 50kg! I believe the way it's been done on your a/c is a quick cheap solution and would encourage the above modification which will allow you to do away with the steel ballast plates in the area you mentioned. It's quite involved to do and will require re-weighing and ballasting. Either way you have a problem with those loose rivets that needs fixing right NOW!

Forgive my ignorance since I've only ever flown in the flatlands. Stock CJ's have a mixture tab which pulls the mixture lever back with the throttle. What would I do if I were in some airport with a density altitude of 12k ft? as would be common on a hot day any where in the mountain country? Assuming the answer is push the mixture control with the throttle on takeoff, where would I stop pushing the mixture? half way? Personal experience has taught me that mixture control next to full throttle mixture cutoff and no fuely no flyee. Thanks Ernie ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 02:24:12 PM PST US Subject: Yak-List: Re: B&C alternator on Yak 52 From: "DC Williams" George Coy was kind enough to send me a procedure that he submitted to the Yak design bureau several years ago. They turned it into a service bulletin. It specifically addresses the changeover to a Jasco alternator but is generic enough to give me the info I need. Thanks George!

On low Rpm it feels normal but at about 1200rpm there is a bit of vibration on the aircraft taxing at higher rpm about 1400 rpm it seem to go away. while flying there is a definite vibration on the stick. At low rpm 1700 to 1900 the vibration its not to bad and I would describe it as a slow vibration but as you increase the rpm the vibration speeds up quite a bit shaking the stick . It does not feel as if the air frame is shaking abnormally but only on the stick. Does anybody have a suggestion as to what it could be or is it just an unbalance prop.
