Well, I do agree with Mark's conclusion.
Here in Europe, I would personally contact the authorities to keep such an
aircraft on the ground if I knew of a serious risk.
We cannot afford having accidents with Yak or Sukhoi aircraft, not only for
the obvious risk to persons and goods, but because EASA, the new European
Aviation Safety Agency, will almost certainly take advantage of such cases
to prohibit flying non certified aircraft. Until now Joint Aviation
Regulations are implemented per country which offers some "souplesse", but
it is only a matter of time having it all being regulated by Big Brother
EASA.
And at last, Aviation Laws in Europe state it very clearly: the pilot has to
be CERTAIN of the airworthiness of the aircraft BEFORE flying. When in
doubt, it's a NO FLY.

Mr Cox, it seems rather clear that you fully well intend to ignore the
advice of some of the best experts on this list server. You want to ferry
this aircraft home, and by God, you are going to do that no matter how many
people (who are far more experienced than you) suggest otherwise. You
appreciate their well meaning advice, but really let's face it, you made up
your mind about this quite some time ago, and you really do not want to be
confused with any facts that might change your decision.
As for insurance, ......of course you will not have any. Anyone who knows
the true circumstances of this flight would never insure your aircraft to
begin with. Of course it is YOUR MONEY... but you honestly can not be sure
that should the worst happen, that it will just be you that gets hurt or
dies. You clearly could end up killing someone else in the process.
Of course everyone that has read your comments has had these thoughts go
through their mind. A wise person would just shake their head and walk
away. I am sure a lot of readers have done just that. But you see, anyone
on this system will tell you... I have a big mouth. But I also pride myself
on doing my very best to tell the truth, no matter where the cards fall.
So read the following carefully:
"Life's tough, it's even tougher if you're stupid". - John Wayne
I know in my heart that there is nothing anyone can say that will change
your mind . So, I will wish you the best of luck and will honestly say a
prayer for you. However, there is not a chance in hell that I will help you
find a prop to fly your YAK-55 home and I truly hope everyone else feels the
same way. If this upsets you, then so be it. I see no valid reason why any
person on this list should help you do something that we all know is less
than safe and in fact borders on reckless. Yes, I know I am going to catch
a lot of grief for being less than politically correct with this message,
but my conscience simply will not allow me to bury my head in the sand on
this one.
Best Regards, .

Chris;
I very seriously suggest that you truck it home. In addition to possible
internal engine damage the broken engine mount is an indicator of possible
airframe damage as well.
