Cool aircraft spotted
« on: April 26, 2007, 06:19:24 PM »
While at work today a couple of cool airplanes stopped by the shop. First is a nice T-6. It's a multiple EAA Air Venture award winner including Best SNJ 1989.



A nice Yak 52TW. 1 of 29 tail wheel Yaks in the US.



The name on the Yak is what made me go get the digi cam.




:cool:
