This is really a cool airplane.It is considerably smaller than the others and the profile of the wings as it banks around the pylons is very distinct.It's a beautiful racer and something a new owner can be proud of. :shock:

Sam Richardson's YAK-11 with the R-2000 #29 N11MQ was a much more attractive airplane. It held to the original lines and was both a good racer and something you could just go out and fly.
