Very cool photos, did the Yaks do their own spaghetti break in the absence of the Red Checkers?

The pacer is used for training at http://avskills.com/ you may be able to find some information about it there. (also an article link there about it)
He has added an extra 2ft onto the wingtips, and made the landing gear longer/higher, and now has a 180hp engine tongue.gif

Nah, that break is part of the yaks standard routine
