First flight of Dutch Yak-3

By Srecko • August 29, 2008

Finally great news coming from Netherlands- Yak-3 with radial engine is finally airborne and images and movies bellow show it in action. Airplane is full metal build and made in regard to all avilable technical data. The same choice is a little bit challenge as well the same type was used as prototype only even in Soviet Union. Whole project worth every respect.
