Yak-52 ... DO NOT LAUGH ... AIR RACING ! Wink

Air Race Championship (ARC) - ARC 2016 - Lisbon .

http://www.airrace.pro/index.php/en/

The Yak-52 is ... the " Vintage Class " Wink)

http://www.airrace.pro/index.php/en/avioes/vintage-class
http://www.airrace.pro/index.php/en/pilots/pilots-2016/pilots-2018

There is also a "Sport Class" (RVs)
and an "Extreme Class" (Extras and more !)

It was actually a fantastic experience
(just getting there was a challenge in itself)
and a lot of FUN !

They are planning more "Pylon Races" next year ...

Cheers, E. Yak-52 Vintage Class - Race 69 - janie (G-CBSS)

Keep me away from the wisdom which does not cry ...
The philosophy which does not laugh ...
And the greatness which does not bow before children.

Laughing? Not at all, at the contrary! This can be just as nice as T-6
racing in Reno.

Is it a race with only Yak 52? That would make it a real race.

YES Jan, only Yak-52 in the Vintage Class Races !

As you can see on the photos below.

Some with stock Vedeneyev M-14P, 2 bladed Russian prop ...
Some with M-14PF and 3 bladed MT prop ...
Some with a combination of the above ...

In 2014 in Cascais, they had a Yak-50 ... it won by quite a margin Wink

It was quite an effort to get "janie" to Portugal ... from Belgium ... trough France, Spain ...

But it was a lot of FUN !

Enjoy the summer buddy !

Cheers,

Etienne.

Not laughing, I encourage the competition....but the Yak, now that reminds me of the old scene from a Disney animated feature: The Waltz of the Hippos......

I thought there were five CJ-6s flying in Europe?

One (BZHB) is being re-engined with an M14P as I speak (so technically not flying, I suppose) at White Waltham. CJSA (mine) and BVVG are alive and well also at White Waltham with Harv's at Redhill and Bruno's in France (which also used to live at White Waltham).

Some of the guys flew four of them together a couple of years ago (a first in Europe - I was banging around in an A320 somewhere annoyingly), hopefully something we'll be able to repeat.

If you need another Yak-52 to race, we have YAKH which works fine when we can get it started (slow turn over using a lot of air each time - no obvious leaks though - any ideas?). I give it 50/50 it could make it as far as Portugal (in fact, I give it 50/50 it could make it further than the Isle of Wight Embarassed) but I'm sure I could rustle up a couple of others.

Anyway, if I enter in one of the CJs, we could all save a lot of money by just mailing the trophy to White Waltham. Laughing

See you on the -400, Etienne.
