YAK 50 alternate images Instrument panel images Aircraft for sale
The single seat version of the 52, weighing 345 KGs less! Same power to weight as a P51 Mustang. The type was used extensively by the Soviet aerobatic teams in the mid 70's and early 80's winning the World championships in 1982. The type finished production in 1985. This aircraft will be a collector's aircraft in a short space of time just like the Jungmeister!

System parts, instruments and engine are the same as the 52, therefore spares no problem as current production. A poor man's fighter!
