Andre,

I just had the first annual inspection done on my CJ6 with the Russian M14P
engine. I had Dennis Savarese come out to Salt Lake City and train me
while I assisted in the annual. He is very thorough, to say nothing of
knowledgeable and it was some of the best money I have ever spent. We had a
great time although we did work our proverbial butts off in a cold hanger.

On my last flight before the annual, I couldn't get the gear up. There was
a pneumatic leak hissing on the firewall, which I found in a worn connection
on the T-fitting (Doug Sapp sent me what I needed to replace it). That also
led to my taking the stainless steel water separator apart to replace the
filters. I had just recently purchased the aircraft from an impeccably
thorough owner and it's upkeep was immaculate. That was why I was so
surprised to find about a teaspoon of rust on one side and a teaspoon of
mineral deposits on the other. Of course I cleaned it all out and replaced
the filters as well as running pipe cleaners through the tubing to try to
determine if they had rust in them. They didn't... but it had to come from
somewhere.

We found the culprit when Dennis (Da' Godfadder) and I checked the main air
tank. It was filled with rust, a potentially really bad thing. Needless to
say, Doug got more business when I ordered a new one. Dennis said that it
appeared that this condition occurred with the owner previous to the one I
purchased my airplane from, which made sense.

Well, Dennis is back home in his warn little nest in Alabama and I'm just
waiting for warmer weather to go take my extra large baggage compartment and
super-dooper smoke system out so that I can get to the air tank and replace
it. Again, for relatively little cost and immense rewards in getting to
know your engine, I would highly recommend having Dennis Savarese come out
and give you the course he teaches.

Best of luck, Happy Holidays, and fly safe'

You know he does group discounts sometimes. I am in OKC, Scott in down in S Texas, and Randy is in Gainsville area ( I think) We all have 55m's and maybe we could meet up in Dallas or some central location.

Subject: yak 55 and m-14 annual condition inspection

I am ready for an annual and been going thru the
manuals and wonder if there is an english version of
the items needed for inspection. the russian manual on
the m-14 is rather oblique. If any member has an
engine list of items please let me know. The same
applies to the 55 model but i suspect that the 52 is
more complex due to gear etc but i can use one as a
base.
happy holidays to the group and many landings next
year

nothing like a radial for aerobatics

Dennis Savarese, I believe, has such a list.

2 weeks back went out in the Yak52 - air was a bit low after the start and
taxi to fuel bay, then starting again, but still plenty enough based on
normal operation for the taxi, t/o and retraction. During the taxi I kept
an
eye on the air, and just before needing to turn 90 degrees towards 29 (the
taxiway heads directly for runway centre) I heard air hissing (over the
noise of the engine with canopy open), glanced down and saw the air down
from 25 to 15 (this in about 10 secs since my last glance), tried the
brakes
and there were no brakes, hence also no directional control. I thought the
brake reducing valve had failed, booted left rudder to avoid the runway
signs in front of me, flipped off the mags and immediately told ATC I had
no
brakes nor control and was heading for the rwy. There was an aircraft on
short final. Went onto the grass running towards 11/29 and was busy
opening
the emergency air as I rolled to a stop.

I could possibly have deployed the emergency air a bit sooner but thought
the brakes were gone anyway (as I still had 15 bars) and had my hands were
full with first trying to miss the rwy sign / comms with ATC / shutting
down
engine etc. It all took just a few seconds.

So, no harm done other than a few go-arounds whilst I pushed the [quote][b]
