Subject: | Re: Reverse Rotation On Shutdown |
Regarding opening the throtle, I used to do the same until my russian
expert (Andrei Gluckhov) see me doing this and raised his eyes to the sky
telling me that it was dangerous to do so because the fuel would rinse the
oil from the cylinder and it could make more harm than good!!
So I did stop doing this!!!
Sorry

Subject: | Re: Reverse Rotation On Shutdown |
Are you sure about that?
I switch off at 40 % and immediately full throttle so that there are still
some revolutions with cooler fuel/air mixture sucked in.
The prop and engine then have enough inertia left to turn a few revolutions
in the correct direction so it will actually diminish the risk of
"dieseling".
But I'm not a specialist at all. My method works fine for me, since years.

Subject: | Reverse Rotation On Shutdown |
Excuse me, but I totally disagree to the point of saying his comment was ridiculous
Didier.
1. There is normally no oil in the combustion chamber. Fuel is fed into the combustion
chamber ignited and burned at high temperature. When the engine is
shut down by ignition it will continue to suck in fuel whether the throttle is
open or closed. The tiny amount of fuel that is fed in as the engine rotates
to a stop after ignition is killed at approx. 20% is extremely small.
2. The whole idea of piston rings is to seal the combustion chamber. On the Russian
pistons, there is actually a 4th ring at the bottom referred to as an "oil
scraper ring". The purpose of that ring is to REMOVE any oil that might remain
on the cylinder wall as the piston moves up and down. Some of the remaining
rings are doing the same thing.
3. This kind of urban legend usually comes from some sort of "truth". In this
case, the "truth" or reality if you will... is when you run an engine with an
EXTREMELY rich mixture which results in large amounts of unburnt fuel remaining
in the cylinder after combustion. This fuel will tend to saturate the piston
rings and prevent proper contact which will then cause the rings to "lose their
seal". This is referred to as "Washing Out The Rings". Again, this only
happens when the engine is running with an extremely rich mixture and NOT when
it is shut down by removing ignition and coming to a stop from idle.
There is nothing magic about the M-14P. It uses the same physics to operate as
any other engine. Andrei is incorrect about this, and while I am sure he will
disagree, you might ask him for a reference. The actual Russian operating
procedures from the manufacturer call for this procedure, and while I agree that
NOT doing it is really not the end of the world.... doing it will NOT damage
the cylinders or rings.
Above and beyond the written procedures, 850 hours on my M-14P with original pistons
and rings and compression ratios all in the 70's kind of proves it.
Mark said that "rolling his eyes to the sky". Yes, I know that Russian facial
expression very well. :-)

This might open an interesting discussion.
The Russian instructions I have call for pulling the engine back to idle (same
as you) and right after killing the mags, opening the throttle all the way until
the engine stops rotating, and then return to idle.
I have been doing that for years. Curious if others ever read it.

Doug,
Russian mags.
I lock brakes, verify gills / oil cooler open, run up to 65% or so during which
time I shut off all nonessential electrical (master / ignition / generator
and engine instruments still ON) and pull off my headset or helmet so I may hear
anything unusual - this is usually about 20 seconds +/- 5 seconds, smoothly
pull throttle back to idle for about 10 seconds, pull mags, kill master / ignition
/ generator. After that - unlock brakes / shut off air / hop out and kill
rear mags, open cylinder drain and push in. I think that covers it as I currently
sit at my desk... :)
Thanks!

Are you sure about that?
I switch off at 40 % and immediately full throttle so that there are
still some revolutions with cooler fuel/air mixture sucked in.
The prop and engine then have enough inertia left to turn a few
revolutions in the correct direction so it will actually diminish the
risk of "dieseling".
But I'm not a specialist at all. My method works fine for me, since
years.

Regarding opening the throtle, I used to do the same until my russian
expert (Andrei Gluckhov) see me doing this and raised his eyes to the
sky telling me that it was dangerous to do so because the fuel would
rinse the oil from the cylinder and it could make more harm than good!!
So I did stop doing this!!!
Sorry

This might open an interesting discussion.
The Russian instructions I have call for pulling the engine back to idle
(same as you) and right after killing the mags, opening the throttle all
the way until the engine stops rotating, and then return to idle.
I have been doing that for years. Curious if others ever read it.

Doug,
Russian mags.
I lock brakes, verify gills / oil cooler open, run up to 65% or so
during which time I shut off all nonessential electrical (master /
ignition / generator and engine instruments still ON) and pull off my
headset or helmet so I may hear anything unusual - this is usually about
20 seconds +/- 5 seconds, smoothly pull throttle back to idle for about
10 seconds, pull mags, kill master / ignition / generator. After that -
unlock brakes / shut off air / hop out and kill rear mags, open cylinder
drain and push in. I think that covers it as I currently sit at my
desk... :)
Thanks!

Well guys...the throttle-up technique worked 2 for 2 last night. But I also

I fly a typical retractable pattern. On downwind I have been going to 80% p

. By the time I'm ready to turn base I'm at about 85 knots. On base I have
been bringing power back to 70% and maintaining 80 - 85 knots w/ my descent
. As soon as I roll wings level on final - probably 1/4 mile from the numbe

nots=2C reduce power to 60% and as I flair airspeed drops to about 70 and b
leeds off. Anything slower - to me - feels very mushy.
Now...if I have "ballast" in back=2C I've found that I can plant it at just
about any airspeed. But if I'm solo=2C it needs to be as slow and gentle a
s possible or I have bounced back up - and more than once - gotten into som

Rico,
I've always used 90 KIAS on base and not less than 80 KIAS over the threshol
d. See if the few extra knots gives a more consistent flare and touchdown.

I'll be the first to bite at this apple. As an old LSO, the key to
consistent landings is a stabilized, trimmed up approach. I would suggest
lowering your flaps and trimming the aircraft for your approach speed before
you begin your turn off the perch. It may require a LITTLE tighter pattern
or a LITTLE shorter final because of the additional drag of the flaps. But
I strongly recommend a pattern that doesn't exceed 25-27 degrees angle of
bank and a wings level final not less than eight to ten seconds. The turn
of less than 30 AOB allows for a little margin for overshooting crosswinds
without wrapping it up too tight and the 8-10 second wings level final gives
you a little cushion to handle an overshoot and still safely work back to
centerline and be stabilized before you begin your flare. Turns off the
perch requiring up to 45 degrees AOB require excess airspeed to handle the
slight load factor and you end up having to fix a higher than desired
airspeed on final. Again not stabilized and may result in issues eating up
you interval in a formation recovery or the urge to get it on the deck
sooner than desired. I know there are those out there that want to be very
tight in the pattern due to the POSSIBLITY of an engine failure. At my home
field at 3,320' with a 3,000' runway that I normally land on, unless the
engine quits abeam the intended point of landing I'm not going to be in a
position to land on the remaining runway. It's a different story for those
of you with much longer runways. I'm not advocating a pattern that would
look comfortable to a 747 captain. But, I know of two RPA aircraft that
have gone down in the pattern due to wrapped up turns to final, but am not
aware of any who have perished from losing an engine in the pattern, so I'm
a strong advocate of a NOTSO tight pattern particularly in multi ship
formations with overshooting crosswinds where everyone rolls out downwind
with their interval on their nose and by the time Dash 4 is at the perch,
he's not abeam the intended point of landing, he's NEARLY OVER the intended
point landing. We have vastly differing levels of experience in our RPA
community and the desire to hack it by some FNG's has likely made for some
exciting landings and probably a few lost comrades. Every time I go the
southern route to our cabin in Colorado I pass the airport at Walsenburg, CO
and am saddened by the memory of the father and son that perished there
several years ago in their new Nanchang on the way to OSH flying what was,
for the density altitude and/or winds that day, too tight of a pattern. So,
maybe when we start losing more aircraft in the pattern from engine
failures than from wrapped up approach turn stalls I'll be more inclined to
advocate the very tight pattern, until then I'll stand by a 25-27 degree
AOB, trimmed up, stabilized turn that yields consistent and safe results.
Sorry to diverge beyond landings themselves, but the pattern is where it all
begins.
As not just an old LSO, but also a Naval Aviator, I can take it just as well
as I can dish it out. Hit me with your best shot!

P.S. Before I completed this I saw Richard Hess's comments on airspeeds.
They're the same I use. Bleeding off excess airspeed on short final is easy
with the paddle blade prop.

Mark=2C
Hit you w/ my best shot? On the contrary: I'd salute you if my civilian sal
ute carried any weight.
1st of all - and most importantly - THANK YOU for your service to your coun
try. What I wouldn't give to hear some of the amazing stories you could eas
ily spill for hours. Also=2C it's very humbling to me as I try to find my w
ay amongst those whom have such a rich aviation background. You guys are th
e reason I READ much more than I could ever contribute - and why I LEARN mu
ch more than I may ever be able to teach.
2nd - THANK YOU for this wealth of info. I need to read this a dozen more t
imes to truly digest it=2C but suffice to say - when I was still just a "lu
rker" in search of a Yak=2C I had the perils of "coffin corner" burnt into
my brain. I do not lie when I say it resonates within me every time I turn
base-to-final now. Love the idea of a "stabilized=2C trimmed approach." Mak
es much sense that if you want a good landing=2C that process should not be
complicated by wrestling w/ the airplane to achieve runway center=2C longi
tudinal correction=2C etc. I think that point hit home the most - as I know
I am guilty of complacency - often trying to find "the pocket" during flai
r rather than approach.
To me=2C THIS is both the beauty and purpose of "The List." I can't speak f
or everyone=2C but these convo's really are valuable to me. Not only do the
y provide great discussion based around a common passion and "a-HA" moments
=2C they also may confirm GOOD practices=2C as well as inspire ME to 1) fly
=2C and 2) fly BETTER. Sadly=2C there are times these pages turn into a (po
litically correct) "Urinating Contest." There are valuable lessons to be le
arned here - ones that may be missed if one is too intimidated to ask. So f
rom the official "weak link" in your midst=2C I thank you guys for your pat
ience and wisdom. I have no business being in the Yak business. Therefore y
ou can bet I'm going to go for broke as I attempt to earn my keep.
Now I can't wait to fly...but the 400' ceiling is laughing at me...

I=92ll be the first to bite at this apple. As an old LSO=2C the key to con
sistent landings is a stabilized=2C trimmed up approach. I would suggest l
owering your flaps and trimming the aircraft for your approach speed before
you begin your turn off the perch. It may require a LITTLE tighter patter
n or a LITTLE shorter final because of the additional drag of the flaps. B
ut I strongly recommend a pattern that doesn=92t exceed 25-27 degrees angle
of bank and a wings level final not less than eight to ten seconds. The
turn of less than 30 AOB allows for a little margin for overshooting crossw
inds without wrapping it up too tight and the 8-10 second wings level final
gives you a little cushion to handle an overshoot and still safely work ba
ck to centerline and be stabilized before you begin your flare. Turns off
the perch requiring up to 45 degrees AOB require excess airspeed to handle
the slight load factor and you end up having to fix a higher than desired a
irspeed on final. Again not stabilized and may result in issues eating up
you interval in a formation recovery or the urge to get it on the deck soon
er than desired. I know there are those out there that want to be very tig
ht in the pattern due to the POSSIBLITY of an engine failure. At my home f
ield at 3=2C320=92 with a 3=2C000=92 runway that I normally land on=2C unle

for those of you with much longer runways. I=92m not advocating a pattern
that would look comfortable to a 747 captain. But=2C I know of two RPA a
ircraft that have gone down in the pattern due to wrapped up turns to final
=2C but am not aware of any who have perished from losing an engine in the
pattern=2C so I=92m a strong advocate of a NOTSO tight pattern particularly

out downwind with their interval on their nose and by the time Dash 4 is a

RLY OVER the intended point landing. We have vastly differing levels of ex

likely made for some exciting landings and probably a few lost comrades.
Every time I go the southern route to our cabin in Colorado I pass the airp

that perished there several years ago in their new Nanchang on the way to
OSH flying what was=2C for the density altitude and/or winds that day=2C to

Subject: | Re: Reverse Rotation Denied!Now Landings. |
Rico,
I can ditto much of what Mark points out and only add that where you are
looking during the landing can have BIG effects on when you flare the
airplane. Looking to far down the runway or to close to the airplane will
not
give you the best depth perception for height. You should move you visio
n in
too and away from the airplane constantly. Looking further down the
runway will give you pitch, roll, and yaw cues but height judgement suffe
rs.
Looking to close to the airplane, you may get height awareness better but
the
other parameter lose perception. Keep your vision moving.
Like Mark I have my airplane configured (gear & flaps down) at the perch.
My power is about 12-1500 rpm IAS about 85kts. Bank angle is hardly ever
over 30 degrees. Trimmed.

Subject: | Yak 50 Cowl pins |
I am looking for the rear cowl pins for a Yak 50. Will buy 2 sets if
they are available. They are pins that insert at the back of the cowl to
secure it; guessing for tail slides, etc. They set I have seen seem to
be a simple pin with an over-center lock.
Also looking for the following:
- Rear FOD barrier Yak 50
- Top Cowl =9Cresting pins=9D. They are pins that
stick up that you can rest the front cowl on when open.
I may also interested in additional Yak 50 parts available. Feel free to
send on whatever you may have.
Thanks!
