Flying the Yak-54

[Frazer]

My first Yak-54 flight when I visited Moscow/MAKS. :)

 

 

 

Part 1: Instructor flew an example maneuver, I copied

 

Part 2: Instructor goes full aerobatic and I sit back and enjoy

Ah okay! Was this your first time ever up in the air like that? or done it before?

I have like 200+ flights in a glider and I flew the Yak-52 once two years back. This was the first time in a full aerobatic aircraft (roll rate is AMAZING! :D)

The stick is also very light (like in a glider), I like that a lot. If I only would win the lotery.....you can imagine what I would do with the money ;)
