Cool, not long before it moves up to Auckland then. Looking forward to seeing it up this way.

Those engine cowlings are a work of art aren't they? Amazing what you can do with a hammer and the human hand and eye!  |

I quite like the Yak-3, it looks right for a fighter of that vintage. It was a bit of a shock for the Luftwaffe when it appeared, and it could easily be mistaken for the not-so-nimble Yak-9. A directive even came in late 1944 for Luftwaffe pilots to 'avoid combat below 5000m with any Yakovlev fighter that lacked an oil cooler under the nose'.

Seeing the two Yak 3's together will be a real buzz.

I love listening to that engine, after start-up the racket is awesome. I can't wait to see her fly. Well done to Jay, Dan and co.
