My count of the registry is 194. The numbers varies with sales back and
forth across the Canadian registry and attrition, but pretty stable for a
few years now. Search by Aircraft Codes.

Motorstar has manufactured higher compression pistons for the HS6a and the AI14
engines. The limitations are that users must use 100LL and due to the construction
of the basic engine can only safely bump up the compression from 5.9 to
6.3.

Just measured the pins, ours are the same on both tachs. Dumb question, did you
have the alignment slot lined up on the cannon plug?

They definitely had some CJ's!
I went to Albania in 1991 (or 92) for the express purpose of buying their
surplus YAK 11's. This based on info exchanged in a 3 way, 2 language
phone call via their UN rep. in New York.
On arrival in Tirana I was advised they had moved one of the YAK's to a
small airfield in the city for my inspection. They picked me up (with a
small motorcade) in the morning. On arrival at the airfield they proudly
opened the hangar door to reveal a CJ6 YAK!
After the shock wore off I asked how much they wanted for the "YAK's". They
were prepared to give them away at $72,000 USD each which, at the time, was
likely more than they paid for them.
Turned out the 4 Yak 11's were destroyed years before when a hangar
collapsed on them. Looking at the hangar we were standing in at the time
pretty much confirmed that story.
C'est le vie!

Hi George;
The HS6a (285 HP) stock piston gives a compression ratio of 6.2 +/- 0.1.
The HS6 and AI14R (260 HP) engines are 5.9 +/- 0.1
