				| Linedogg,
You are correct on the weather for Sunday. There as you know is another front pushing in after this one today.

				| Looks like this front  that's coming though AL today will be out of the AYS area by Wed.  afternoon.  Saturday at AYS may be a wash-out due to a low out near the  Rockies.  We'll be near  the center of that low, midday  Saturday,  between a warm front to our east and a cold front to our  west.  IF its a slow mover, Sunday will be iffy particularly anyone heading  NE.

 It's Sunday's WX that's messing me up since I have to be in NY on Monday AM. So if this pattern holds sadly AYS may be a no go this year.

				| Guys,
We are in the southeastern winter 3 day front cycle now. What ever is happening on the west coast today will be here is 3 days. This front that is pushing thru Montgomery today will pass AYS tomorrow. Should have reasonable weather Fri and Sat/Sun become iffy. Pappy's right.
 My Guard drill days were moved from the first weekend in Jan to 21-22. It is a manadatory weekend also so I can't miss. So I'm a bust for AYS this year.
 But all should start thinking of Red Air Fall Fling II in Oct! Probably the name will change to Red Air Oktoberfeast! Since we have so many Oct babies in the southeastern RPA membership.  I know, got to get past S&F and OSH first. There's rumbings of a May Feast but the details are still iffy right now.
 Really should think of moving AYS back to Mar or latter Feb. The weather is still iffy even then. I know it is getting close to S&F with wanting to get some of the students carded.
 Good luck with AYS this year,

				| Talon,
You out to have your fill of close by the time you get to AYS from LaGrange! Between Linedogg and Mongoose, you ought to have your 4 ship knocked out along with your 2 ship element rejoins and wing work. Just need your form TO and you'll be there!
 Ain't like rout'n in the weeds with a Hornet though!

 Now here's a case where a Yakker needs a CJ...one of those super CJ's with M-14PF, long range fuel and full glass. Just file for FL180 and depart with de-ice on, auto-pilot engaged , and oxygen mask at the ready :>)

				| Craig,
You really do not want to start this. I know a YAK-52 driver that you meet at Red Air who has had his stock 52 at FL200. As a matter of fact you meet Weasle when we operated out of his hanger. Yep, all you need is extended range tanks. Fuel is an issue at this time. Can opt for the back seat ferry tank (strapped in), the centerline that Stu has, tip tanks from Termikus, or the two wing tanks on pylons from Dennis.
 Fights on. Again!

 Yo Dog! (I like that.)
 
 I took my CJ with the Huosai to 180 doing time-to-climb testing. (I did
 it twice.) No problem. Lots of climb left but I didn't want to file IFR
 to keep going plus the nasal canulas are not certified for ops above 180.
 
 I would expect a Yak-52 to be able to go to 200. HP=climb. I would
 expect the CJ to go higher on the same engine tho'. Better aerodynamics
 and a higher aspect ratio wing should make a difference up there.

				| Brian,
If I were going to operate continuous above FL 150, I would install a
 diluter demand regulator, a O2 tank in the instrument bay, a CRU-6O and an
 aviators 02 mask. Also, if I were going to climb to >FL2OO- 250 , I would
 pre-breath 100% 02 for 20 minutes. Just because my old fat self is at
 higher risk for nitrogen narcosis.
 That is assuming I intended to remain at attitude for a XC > 30 min. to 1
 hour or so. you already know the instruments needed for IFR(at) FL's. as you
 say staying below FL18 does not require filing IFR. Only if you want to get
 over some stuff, would you want to file IFR. you are going to want that
 down filled Flight Suit at those FL's this time of year. Actually, you
 would want them in the summer to if you plan on staying up therein that
 air-ish YAK of mine!

 Well, you can do that if you like. It wastes O2 compared to a pulse
 demand regulator like Mountain High's or Nelson's but, what the hey, O2
 is cheap ... to the military.

 Working on our physiology are we? Let's see -- nitrogen narcosis, aka
 "rapture of the deep," comes from a *higher* partial pressure of N2
 dissolved in nervous tissue. You don't get narc'd when you go up, only
 down, as in SCUBA. When the dissolved N2 comes out of the tissues as the
 pressure drops you get decompression illness, otherwise known as "the
 bends".
 
 
  	  | Quote: |  	  | That is assuming I intended to remain at attitude for a XC > 30 min. to 1 hour or so.
 
 | 
 Well, given how long it takes to get up there I not particularly worried
 unless I have been SCUBA diving. No flying within 24 hours of any
 decompression diving. Other than that, no big if we are going to be
 working at 250 and below. If I were going to be pressure breathing O2 at
 420 I would start to worry about it.

				| Brian,
Best check again on the nitrogen Narcosis thing at altitude It happens.
 It is called decompression sickness. The treatment for it is recompression
 in a dive chamber. I  have had to fly two military aviators to the chamber
 one at Brooks, AFB and the other was at Beale AFB. Both  had to be flown
 with the cabin pressurized to sea level because of the risk of worsening
 the decompression sickness. One of those pilots was my Squadron cc. He had
 a gradual cabin pressure leak due to a slow leaking canopy seal.
 There are two ways to get the "Bends."  One is from decompression and the
 other is from compression. In either case, N2 comes out of solution in
 blood. It  coleses into gas bubbles in the tissue. Most commonly in an
 injured joint. It also can happen in the spinal cord, brain (neurological
 nitrogen narcosis), and the pulmonary tree. (the chokes). That is putting
 it in simple terms.
 In otherwords, every time you take that unpressurised twin above FL 180,
 you are at risk for for developing the "bends".
 Doc

 Well, you can do that if you like. It wastes O2 compared to a pulse
 demand regulator like Mountain High's or Nelson's but, what the hey, O2
 is cheap ... to the military.

 Working on our physiology are we? Let's see -- nitrogen narcosis, aka
 "rapture of the deep," comes from a *higher* partial pressure of N2
 dissolved in nervous tissue. You don't get narc'd when you go up, only
 down, as in SCUBA. When the dissolved N2 comes out of the tissues as the
 pressure drops you get decompression illness, otherwise known as "the
 bends".

 Well, given how long it takes to get up there I not particularly worried
 unless I have been SCUBA diving. No flying within 24 hours of any
 decompression diving. Other than that, no big if we are going to be
 working at 250 and below. If I were going to be pressure breathing O2 at
 420 I would start to worry about it.

 nitrogen narcosis
 n.
 A condition of confusion or stupor resulting from increased levels of
 dissolved nitrogen in the blood, as that occurring in deep-sea divers
 breathing air under high pressure.

 Main Entry: nitrogen narcosis
 Function: noun
 : a state of euphoria and exhilaration that occurs when nitrogen in normal
 air enters the bloodstream at approximately seven times atmospheric pressure
 (as in deepwater diving) called also rapture of the deep

 nitrogen narcosis
 
 n : confused or stuporous state caused by high levels of dissolved nitrogen
 in the blood; "deep-sea divers can suffer nitrogen narcosis from breathing
 air under high pressure"
