Yak-9UM in the Alps

Post by Chucky »

Hi everyone,

No need to pay for a photoship this time, as we couldn't find a fast one. So we climbed a suitable peak in southern Valais and asked the Yak-9 for some passes :biggrin: . I was great to hear the sound of its engine :smile:

Stunning photos of a stunning plane against a stunning backdrop! The close crops in particular are superb
