 Posted: Mon Feb 26, 2018 8:09 am Post subject: Yak 50 for sale |
 |
|
My little girl is asking for flying lessons so it is time to trade in the Yak 50 for a Cessna 195. It is offered on Barnstormers with pictures.
1979 Yak 50 N369AG
This is the best performing Yak 50 on the planet. It is a 1979 Flush Riveted model with nearly every performance and trick mod you can add to a Yak. The spar was reinforced from the factory. The engine was built with lightweight pistons, gapless rings and auto plugs and puts out a monstrous 420HP behind an MTV-9, 3 bladed propeller. This plane will hover. The motor and FWF are truly a work of art. The engine mount, air tank, oil tank, linkage etc. was all powder coated and looks fantastic. The oil cooler was relocated to the wing, cleaning up the belly of the aircraft and adding a few knots in cruise. It has a larger 36 gallon fuel tank, smoke tank with dual exhaust ports, clean kit, oil shutoff with no start micro switch, new air tank, rebuilt oil pump, new tires, new batteries, rebuilt gear actuators, Garmin SL40, Becker transponder and original 360 degree attitude indicator and instruments. I never pulled more than 6 G’s to extend the life of the airframe.
TTAF 338.4
TSMOH 160
TSPOH 160
Annual due March 2019
The paint is an honest 6/10 but it looks great at 10’ and perfect when in the air. The money was spent on the motor, prop and systems. They run 100% mechanically and are near bullet proof.

This aircraft has unlimited aerobatic capability combined with the warbird aesthetic and the Red Star Pilot Association for formation clinics and fly ins. The community and support for this aircraft are awesome and it is something you won’t get with straight aerobatic aircraft. Post flight usually takes an hour because of all the attention it gets on the ramp. It really does have a fantastic combination of appeal from several different communities.

Find an instructor who really understands the 195 as they are ground looping witches. I learned!

Josh,
I have several thousand hrs of tailwheel time in everything from a J-3 to the Grumman TBM and I found the 195 to be the trickiest plane of them all to land. It's a great plane, I love mine, but will bite you if you ever relax.
I will say this, if your daughter can learn to fly in a 195, she'll be able to fly anything!
Also, you might want to check with your insurance company first. Using a 195 to give dual might cost big $$.
Maybe stay with a Yak and get a -52TW. That is a real easy taildragger to land.

My girl is only 7, so it will be a little while before she can reach the rudders to groundloop;)
She does have the Aviation bug though, loves going out to the airport and is harping on me to teach her to fly. It is such a great feeling that she is showing interest. Right now it just doesn't make sense for me to fly a single cockpit and leave her at home. We need a cross country machine we can go see the Grand Parents in as well so the 195 is a good compromise of being cool and practical for hauling some camping gear and the family.
In another 7 years when she is really ready, I'll be able to add a Cub or 52 to the stable If she keeps the interest.
She loves that TBM as well!

Cute kid!
Ah, yes, the TBM. I tell people if Peterbilt ever made an airplane, it would have been the TBM...flies just like a truck.
