| Previously one of the Yak 11 ex Egypt, it
was sent to Russia for conversion to a Yak 3 ( 3 & 11 shared many design
features including wing assemblies ) Fitted with Allison V1710 because
of lack of availability of original Klimov V12. After major structural work
was completed in Russia - returned to Duxford in UK where detail work was
completed and UKCAA paperwork issued for the work done. Apart from the Allison, the aircraft is very close to authentic Yak 3 specs, unlike the later "Reproduction" Yak 3's and 9's that has a totally different spec on the wing construction. Our job was to amalgamate the work done to date and assemble, paint, certify and fly the completed aircraft. |
