Hi All,

I'm looking to buy an operational Baklan 5 for a Yak. The owner would like to keep the plane original if possible. Let me know if you have one you'd part with.

Thanks Dennis. All this time I thought the emergency was also being replenished but I just looked at the schematic. I'll be darn. Appreciate the reply.

I have a little different situation on a '52 where the emergency bottle won't fill from the compressor but can be charged externally. Main system is fine. Also has a very slow emergency leak. Block ...

Perhaps the lock should be called something other than a parking brake...which it is not. We use the lock on our '52s to facilitate starting and shutdown and release it after shutdown when the air su ...

Time to put the engine on my Bearhawk plus I'm simply not going to need three aircraft so my 912 powered IV-1200 is going up for sale.

Pls pass along to anyone interested. Email me off-list with ...

No prob Pat. Those photos were taken a couple of yrs ago before I installed the softer homebuilders special tailwheel. I flew the hard Maule for yrs, and it was fine -- just solid -- but I've really ...

Thanks.

I simply went to the auto parts store and got the heaviest pair of gas struts I could find. The struts need to have fittings on the top and bottom that will take bolts or can be modified t ...

You'll be VERY sorry if you don't spray. Polybrush self levels but only if it has time to flow out. Don't worry about pinholes as the spray coats will take care of those. If not, the Poly Spray coa ...
