I like to show you another piece of the avionic history.

Although in each air service the 70's fighter jets were of more importance rather than prop driven (piston) engine airplanes, the initial training given to pilots was mostly given by 'piston engine' airplanes. In the former Soviet Union was that the Yak-52. This impressive aircraft is ideal for aerobatics, and the engine sound of its 360HP engine can only be described as spectacular.

Depicted is the PH-YAK - Yakovlev Yak-52. After the fall of the Soviet Union it was exported to the west and is owned now by a Dutch flying group. This capture is taken near Zeeland Airport, The Netherlands.

Another gorgeous shot of a fixed wing with a beautiful sky, Mr. C. These planes are terrific. It is wonderful that some can afford to collect, restore, and keep them flying for those of us who love to see them in the air.

Super sharp shot of this plane in flight. I was planning to go back to the WONG air show this year but the weather was terrible. I like the bright cloud filled sky in this shot and it adds to the overall composition. Great capture.

You can tell this one goes back a ways in time because the wheels, while in the up position, are still hanging under the plane instead of tucked away, making the craft more aerodynamic. So my question is, Mr. C, how the heck do you get this angle on your photo, unless you shot it from another aircraft? (Top drawer, by the way!)

If you've ever wanted to make a difference but found it hard to believe that one person could... check out the Kiva Team Caedes discussion thread and discover that anything is possible.

Love the position of this plane between the cloud banks Mr. C. and wonderful sharp details in this shot.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
