The Yak-52 aircraft was initially designed for military pilot training but has been available for import to the West for some time. Many pilots and groups have opted for the Yak-52 because of its relatively low cost and high performance compared to that of similar category aircraft in the West. A much loved and very capable aircraft supporting an impressive +7/-5g with full load.

Western registration issues have gradually gone away or become much easier to deal with and in so making the Yak-52 an impressive and very desirable aircraft for those living in the West. As you would expect from a training aircraft, it has dual controls and is relatively easy to fly aerobatic manouvres.

Complete Yak-52 overhauls are now common. Many are offered with custom paint schemes, extended fuel, upgraded engine and propeller and even the 100+ service bulletins have been completed and yet the Yak-52 still comes to the West as a worthy competitor at reasonable prices compared to similar Western categories. It's not difficult to see why the Yak-52 is a serious option for pilots and groups wanting to get a bit more thrill out of flying, all you need is a short test flight!

The Yak-52 is defined as a complex aircraft; with its 360hp 9-Cylinder M-14P radial engine and both retractable gear and variable pitch propeller, it is clearly a step up from when you first got your PPL. It is an adventure into the world of aerobatics and along with it, it brings style, charisma and presence.

Many modifications for the Yak-52 are currently available. For example, the engine can be altered to deliver 400hp(M-14PF), the propeller can be exchanged for a German MTV-9-260 3-blade or similar, extended wing tip tanks can also be fitted. However, expert advice is required when considering these modifications! Make sure you have the facts first; reliable information about the effects that some of these modifications can have on reliability and performance is still in great demand!
