Hi all,,, My chang is no longer, and I'm looking for a replacement. I have contemplated the 18T as there is a nice one for sale here in Canada. Any words of wisdom? Any problem areas on these ships I should be asking about?

thanks

Mike

Hi Mike,

owner of a 18T since 2 years.
Like nearly all yaks no problems if you take care of her.
The pleasure of traveling with three passengers and with a lot of room, with the pleasure of simple positive aerobatic.
I am not objective as I love her since the beginning and she never falied me.
Very stable but reactive
Beautiful line and comfortable conditions of flight.
The weak points are on the gears 'corrosion of the actators, corrosion of the uplock cylinders) but with a regular maintenance there is no weak point. The point is to purge the water in the air system systematicaly to avoid water in the air circuit.
I don't speak about the engine because it is the same as on all yaks and Nanchang.

regards

Diider

Hi Skidmk.
Sorry to hear about the loss of your Nanchang.
Is the 18T you are looking at based near Vancouver?
If so, I know the plane well. Mike has let me fly it and I gotta say these are awesome. While I enjoy my CJ, I have to admire a four seat cabin aircraft that is so aerobatic. It is such fun watching Ross Granley do his routines in the 18T. Given that most of us can't have an unlimited supply of different planes for different tasks, what a versatile machine the 18T is. What more can I say? Enjoy.
Coop Cooper.
