Poorly would be an upgrade to how I fly it.

Didn't have anywhere near enough knowledge of the plane to understand its best chance of surviving was to stay in the hangar..   :D

Dude.. trust me when I say this, it ain't for lack of tryin'.. that bird just wasn't buyin'.

I'll have to check the flight stats on a cow barn.. maybe the yak can outturn that.

I don't find the 7 appealing at all.  :salute to you guys that had to fly it. But it's still better than a 111 :D

Even though the Yak7 is not a uber monster, I still really enjoyed flying it for the first two frames. Great addition IMO for setups like these. Flying for the Ruskies I really enjoy getting to fly in a Russian plane. Makes it feel right  :cheers:
