AIRSHOW PERFORMANCE
Former Canadian Aerobatic Champion, World Competitor, RCAF CF-104 pilot, Boeing 747-400 Captain, Gord Price in his Russian Yak-50… Serial Number 01
Gord is glad to back from a 24 year sabbatical from aerobatic flying. He is flying the prototype YAK 50. This is the only YAK 50 registered in Canada.. CFYGP The YAK 50 is the largest aircraft to fly in the World Aerobatic Championships and was designed as a graceful aerobat with plenty of power.
Gord displays the best qualities of the YAK-50 from the flat spin to the long straight lines and spectacular outside snap rolls in a fast moving graceful display of the capabilities of a Clark YH airfoil flown to it’s maximum.
In 1982, after WAC 82 ended, the Russians asked Gord to be the first Western pilot to fly their YAK 50. He never forgot that flight. Victor Smolin flew his Pitts with the Ultimate wing and he too probably never forgot that flight.
And now we move forward to today. Gord bought the prototype YAK 50 which was built in Moscow at the Yakovlev Design Bureau in 1972. It was developed from the YAK 18PS. It originally had fixed gear and a bubble canopy. The aircraft was subsequently fitted with a Yak-18 greenhouse and retractable gear. After type testing was completed the aircraft was mothballed and shoved in a corner at the factory. In 2003 the aircraft was rebuilt bringing modifications up to date and it was refitted with a YAK 52 spar. Barry Hancock from Salt Lake city decide to sell the aircraft in 2011 and Gord jumped at the opportunity to purchase this famous aircraft and maybe ..just maybe fly aerobatics again. That was just over a year ago.
