Yak Listers

I have been lurking on the list again for a while.  I am a former  

owner of a Yak 52 and two Yak 50's.  Sold my last 50 down to Alabama 5  

years ago or so.  I thought I had this Russian aircraft thing out of  

my system.  Last Fall I made the costly mistake of helping a buddy  

retrieve a Yak 55M that he had purchased.  That peaked my interest  

again.  I ended up importing a Technoavia SP-55M.  I believe it is the  

only one in the States.   I just wanted to put in a plug for Richard  

Goode who handled the transaction.  I would not hesitate in buying  

another aircraft through Mr. Goode.  Everything went well.  Also,  

Cliff Coy and his group in Vermont did a good job of assembly and  

working out an issue or two on the aircraft.  Thanks Richard and Cliff.



I am looking for a set of Yak 55M fuel level indicators.  I want to  

supplement my electric gauges with the manual type.  My wing tanks  

have the mounting plates for the Yak 55M gauges.  Anyone know where I  

could get a set?  Also in need of a wing sighting device.  One of mine  

is broken.  If one of you Yak 55M  owners has mounted a Smoke System  

and would share some pictures of how you mounted the tank, I would  

appreciate that.



Regards,

Francis Butler

Francis welcome back. I believe you sold your 50 to Dave Harcourt in BHM. Who did you sell Scottie Patterson's 50 to? Contact me off list.

Once you've gone YAK it's tough to go back.

I would say the same about Richard. I purchased my 18T through Richard and I would strongly recommend to do so. Not only he knows a lot about the Yak but he is a man of word. Say what he does and does what he says. And he is perfectly honest, no surprise.

Richard thanks so much for all and thanks for your kind help and support until now.

Didier,

I second your assessment of Richard Goode. When no-one from Australia to Romania could help me find a set of M-14P gill shutters, he arranged for something to be assembled by Termikas using parts from what I think may have been several damaged Yaks. Arrived here in Arizona looking like it was brand new and has worked perfectly ever since. Very reasonable price, for which I was most grateful. A real gentleman.
