Below is a link to a pic of a red and white Yak-11 found on Airliners.net. Anybody have any other pics of this particular airframe or similarly painted Yak-11s? Thanks in advance, Chad Veich.

It was faded when I was there in '99, obviously it has been repainted now. Don't know the origin of the scheme however.

Thanks BDK, that last pic is outstanding. Sure would be nice to find some info on the origins of the scheme.

I had only seen the first shot of it sitting out in the weeds. And did hope someone had shot a side view of it. This is how my 1/72 Aeroteam Yak-11 model kit will eventually look! Thanks for posting them! And, if there is a Yak-11 owner out there looking for a new scheme for his a/c, why not consider this???

Note that the new scheme is missing the number on the rudder????

Yeah, I noticed it went from four digits to three! Must have ran out of masking tape!
