Dennis, Jorgen
Thanks ... spoke to a couple of other UK based owners today ... one owns a -52 & could not comment (had not left the master down yet), the other a owns a -50 and had discharged the battery in this manner.
So no obvious pattern here (if there is one anyway) ... so would like to ask the Yak-List if anyone else has experienced this issue to post a one-line message giving their aircraft model & year of manufacture please.
If there are no others then I guess it's just coincidental.
Thanks, Rob

Rob,
As you have said, schematically it is virtually impossible for that to
happen. In fact, on my personal airplane (52) I have left the
battery/external power switch down for days at a time and did not have any discharging of the aircraft battery. So whatever is causing it is not
reflected in the electrical schematics.

According to the schematics the battery should be isolated & nothing should form a load ... but something does, as this occurs on -52s & I think on -50s too. Don't know if the CJ's have the same problem.
I'll get my coat!

Rob,
YAK52/50 have left the switch down on the 52 without discharge. Have not
done that on the 50, yet.
