Hi All  

   

Looking for some ideas for lights to go on a Yak52.  

   

So far I have cabin lighting off an L-39, and wingtip nav lights from L-29.  

   

I need:  white light for tail (how on earth would you fit something?)  

Landing / taxi light.  Thought to strap something to the gear.  

   

Ideas?  Suggestions?  

   

Jorgen

Jorgen,

 The best solution is the Whelen nav-position-strobe  lights.  http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/elpages/1105643.php

  

 Although more expensive than the Aeroflash units, Aeroflash  must have 2 power supplies for the strobe lights.  The Whelen system uses  one power supply for both strobe lights.

Jorgen,  

I do not know what the requirements are for your CAA. The FAA in the  US allows us to fly with the below lights on the wing tips. The lights that Dennis has below with the link to Aircraft Spruce’s website page for the Whalen nav-position-strobe lights have the white aft facing position light. They are mounted on both wingtips so you do not have to have a white light on the tail. I have them on my 52. They work great.   

As for the landing light, I have the light listed on page 444 of their catalog. 90195 PAR 36 landing light (with lamp P/N 11-03286 -$283.95) That is a 28V 4596 Lamp (GE Equivalent 250 W lamp). You will have to fabricate a mounting bracket for the main gear. You can run the power one of two ways. Run the wiring into the cockpit to a separate switch or tie into the  gear position indicator solenoid. Obviously you want the gear down side of the circuit. I have been told that would work. Have not done it that way yet. Just means that the gear lights come on  every time you drop the gear.   

I prefer to control the power to the gear light from the cockpit. I have that the landing light I stated above but have mounted it on my plane yet. To many other projects have gotten in the way.
