Photos of the Aeroplane at POP

Phil Bakers has, whilst unnecessarily apologising for their quality, sent in these three close-up photos he was able to get of the aeroplane which buzzed the Party on the Park.

It appears to be a Yakovlev YAK-52 – a plane developed in Russia during the seventies as a trainer for students in the Soviet aerobatic programme, which is still being produced today.

Our thanks to Phil. You can read more about the YAK-52 on Wikipedia.
