I closed last week on my first plane, a 1987 Yakovlev Yak-52. Fully aerobatic, 360 hp supercharged nine-cylinder radial, big paddle-bladed prop, thing pulls like a tractor.
Completed transition training last Thursday and getting used to it and the little idiosyncracies from the pneumatic systems.
Lots of character and lots of fun!
