The compressor is in place on my plane in 1998. Its always works well.

It il in place in the front, right side, where was the originally IFF.

It is an electric compressor with a switch on the mail panel, front place. I put it off when aerobatics.

You have to check the oil once a year.

It is on bigs silent-blocs.

It gives air pressure for everything, except the rear canopy seal.

Begins to work at 20 psi, stops at 50.

Takes 14 minutes from 0 to 50 psi, and 7 from 30 to 50.

There is a water draining to be open after each flight.

I have no leaks on my air circuit.

Best regards.

Jean de Roubin

Wow, that's pretty cool. One question though. Do you mean PSI or BAR (ATM). Minimum onboard air pressure is 50 BAR which is about 725 PSI. Max is 150 BAR or 2175 PSI. If your electric air compressor goes to 725 PSI in 15 minutes and you have had no moisture related failures of your air system,  I'd like to buy one. Do you have a make and model for it? Thanks!

 

 BTW, make/model for ultrasonic leak detector is Amprobe UT-300...

Hi Tim



Is it not clear from the manuals? There are schematics showing cockpit layout with all the switches and gauges etc.



80/20 rule probably applies, you will figure out 80%, and 20% will give a problem.  Just mail the list for specifics.



Out of interest how did you do the labels?  Probably been an issue for most of us at this time.  I remastered them, if anyone wants I am happy to mail them.  Took me days of fiddling on my PC and now I don't even use them - was going to remake them all in english as per original, engraved and letters painted with glow paint for the UV lights, but I did a trial first with paper labels I printed myself (sealed with hairspray).  Anyway that was 6 years back and some have fallen off now, but I don't need them anymore.  The only switches I cannot identify from memory are the circuit breakers on the RHS.



You may want to consider safety wiring the relevant switches in rear cockpit to the correct position to prevent inadvertent operation and loss of pitot / static data, roll and pitch data etc.  Or the pax dropping your tanks as what happened here in SA by a journo cadging a ride.  (luckily over farmland just before descending over a city (cretin)).



I found the easy way was to dlightly unscrew the screw on the switch on the proper side, slip the wire around the screw and the switch lever, and safety in position.  Afterward re-tighten the screw.



Regards Jorgen

Gents

If you go to the YakUK website they have the labels to download along

with other good L29 and Yak gen

I had my local sign run guy them off on the correct adhesive paper

Now I just need to figure out where to stick them

By the way my sign guy tells me he can make them glow in the dark ,

infra red capable etc etc.....

Depends how much you want to spend

Thanks for the advice Jorgen , I will certainly be lockwireing the back

switches

I don't want my joy flights turning into simulator sessions
