in tubes. Good for stainless to stainless pipe fittings, which are the
absolute worst in the world to get to seal. It seals well, remains pliable
and lubricates well. Unlike teflon tape, won't cause problems in the
systems. I get it from Grainger.

on hydraulic lineI'm aware of plumbers tape etc. and I've used a bit of some gooey compound
air cylinder and relatedfittings such as brake cylinders too, but on Jim Kimball's pictures of the
ideas of what compoundparts, it looks like some kind of sealing compound is used there too. Any
buddyis typically used on a pneumatic fitting? Thanks.

Don't know much about Yaks. Bet George could shed some light. Close
ishad a Nanchang and I can tell you that a BUNCH of stuff was pneumatic.
Starter, flaps, brakes, gear retract and maybe more. Interesting thing
Thosethat he absolutely never had any trouble with any of the air systems.
opinionthings worked perfectly, every time. Any time I ask M14 guys their
bestabout electric starting, the reaction is the same; "why mess with the
andpart of the engine!"
As for the hover craft skirts; I like the way you think! THIS is the
spirit of 'experimental aircraft'!

gyrosDoesn't the Yak uses air for a lot of things?
Your right no vacuum on the jets (oh, except the toilets on some..),wouldare all electric (and most are ring laser with no moving parts).
Pressurization is bleed air from engines.
Maybe no wheels on amphib, just hover craft skirts.

I doubt that there's enough air available to do the venturi thing. Iprobably just use a regulator to drop the pressure to a usable level
need arunthroughthe gyros with that airflow. I doubt if they know whether the flowthem is caused by a negative or positive pressure source. Probably
moregood filtration system, though. All told, still less expensive and
havereliable than a vacuum system. If the compressor failed (IMC), you'd
isquite a while to get to VMC, just using the reservoir. Don't jets and
turboprops use pressure systems, as opposed to vacuum sytems? (this
thereally a question. I always assumed they didn't use vacuum pumps, but
rather bleed air pressurization)
Personally, I'm planning on some version of the solid state attitude
indicators. By the time I'm ready to get that stuff, I figure most of
gear?bugs will be purged.
You amphib guys ever thought about an air/hydraulic system for your
andNo pump, wiring or reservoir. Just a cylinder with air on one side
Weoilon the other. Or better yet; airbag actuation. No hydraulics at all.
air.could do air actuated flaps.
Gettin stupid, huh?
