A great day of team training. Paul is the Yakovlevs Display Team’s newest recruit and has been training towards his initial display authorisation in the Yak 52 (in a previous life he was a Chinnock Display Pilot). Today we had Paul flying with Instructor and Display Pilot Marc practicing his display routine before flying a solo display in the overhead as part of the mentored training required to achieve a DA. He then started his training towards flying the Yak 50 with instru...ctor and display pilot Matt. This training is concentrated around flying circuits from the back seat of the Yak 52. We do this because the limited visibility in the back is similar to the Yak 50 and requires a good standard of sideslip to land and that skill is directly transferable to the Yak 50 taildragger. Obviously plenty of tailwheel time is also essential before strapping into the 450hp Yak 50. Plenty more training next week with an AOPA Aerobatic course being run on the Yak 52.

New type in the logbook! This beautiful Cirrus SR20. A serious touring aircraft @ AT Aviation Sales UK
Side slipping is fun...
I’ve not got a lot of hours in the Robin DR400 compared to other types because it doesn’t do aeros! So with the Club aerobatic aircraft out of action I took it up with a strong crosswind and tried making the circuits tighter and tighter and therefore inevitably ending up very high to explore the aircraft’s handling. Check out the VSI! Slippery little aircraft! . .... . . . . . . . #robindr400 #crosswindlanding #crosswind #cockpit #sideslipping #cockpitview #loveflying #flyinginstructor #flighttraining #pilottraining #aerobatics #aerobaticpilot #pilot #airlinepilot #atpl #generalaviation #handling #summer #fun #happy #awesome

After crossing at the bottom of a heart the number one/leader now on the right hand side of the pair turns hard left and the number two pulls up into a barrel roll/ air combat manoeuvre called a High Yo Yo to end up on the leaders tail for the next part of the display.
The high Yo-Yo is a very effective maneuver, and very difficult to counter. The maneuver is used to slow the approach of a fast moving attacker while conserving the airspeed energy. The maneuver is performed b...y reducing the angle at which the aircraft is banking during a turn, and pulling back on the stick, bringing the fighter up into a new plane of travel. The attacker then rolls into a steeper pitch turn, climbing above the defender. The trade-off between airspeed and altitude provides the fighter with a burst of increased maneuverability. This allows the attacker to make a smaller turn, correcting an overshoot, and to pull in behind the defender. Then, by returning to the defenders plane, the attacker restores the lost speed while maintaining energy . . . . . . . . #aircombat #aircombatmanoeuvring #formationflying #cockpit #warbird #warbirds #fighter #yak50 #yak52 #heart #love #airshow #airdisplay #becauseiwasinverted #aerobatics #summer #fun #pilot #aerobaticpilot #airshowpilot #smokeon

Breaking for the heart 💓 The leader calls the smoke on and the split and both aircraft turn. The number two keeps the leader on the horizon and they aim to cross at the bottom of the heart. The leader is constantly giving commands to make sure both aircraft pass at the right point and the shape of the heart is correct. Not as easy as it looks!
The perfect way to end our aerobatic displays for air shows and private events including weddings! . .... . . . . . . . . #heart #love #fun #wedding #bride #groom #weddingairdisplay #thebigday #weddingplanner #eventmanagement #airshow #airdisplay #yak50 #yak52 #warbirds #warbird #cockpit #pilot #aerobatics #cockpitview #formationflying #formationaerobatics #awesome #breathtaking #aircraft #somersetwedding #dorsetwedding #weddingvenue

It was great to get back into the Yak 50 again today for two sorties of formation aerobatics! It’s always rewarding flying an aircraft you can’t see out of! A sporty crosswind made landing more interesting but as always this aircraft doesn’t fail to impress with her stable handling on the ground. . . . .... . . . . . . #yak50 #yak52 #taildragger #warbird #warbirds #cockpit #cockpitview #aerobatics #formationaerobatics #vintageaircraft #retro #summer #fun #happyplace #pilot #pilotlife #aerobaticpilot #displaypilot #airshow #airdisplay
