Jan I think we are talking only about the Nanchang fuel indicating system, which is different from the Yak fuel indicating system on account of its an indigenous design.

The indicating system is not a simple resitance value to the indicator?

If it was you could use parallel or series resistors to make the needle show full / empty then reface the indicator.

The range markings on all the Westernized Yaks are dubious.
Compare the oil temp limits in the W to the "book" and they are way off in the ones I flew. Same with ASI

That ASI says your ...

Assuming Pappy listed wrong units or else that pilot was doing 10% over VNE and you are working hard to make a Yak 52TW do that, and parts departing would be the expected result.

Had a little t ...

Pappy said 240 Mph but did you mean 240 KMph?

For the vast majority this is a thing of the past. Underwriters are computerized and can now handle the load of quoting the s ...

Grayson is this a new airplane for you?

Hopefully you have done some 1 hour X-crountry legs first to get an idea on where oil consumption will be and how well the rest of the airplane works. The o ...

If I recall on neither a Housai or M14 does oil lubricate the generator splines or bearings. They are on their own. But I thought there was some difference in the oil seal on a Housai vs an M14? Bl ...

Remember: NEVER pull just one spark plug. Always remove at least all front or rear plugs. If you only remove one and pull the prop through then you come back to that cylinder the engine will zip pa ...
