Morning guys & gals,
Close friend and myself would like to join a group or start our own group with a aircraft suitable for aerobatics and short haul touring that has a warbird taste without the warbird costs! We both prefer tailwheel aircraft and have varying levels of aerobatic and tailwheel experience in various types. Friend military, myself PPL.
To cut a long story short, we are very interested in the Yak52 TD as it seems to be an all round very capable aircraft and we'd love to hear some 'real-life' experiences of the type, its functionality, practicalities, pro's & cons etc etc. We've both read a whole heap of test flight notes and reports but nothing from an owners perspective.
Any advice including the not so nice stories is what we want to hear.
Looking forward to your views. :ok:
