Allmost 30 years ago up in Sweden i was so lucky when i got a ride in one of those 52’s - a 15 minute flight with full aerobatics with a very very competent pilot. We had rented the pilots clubhouse on the airfield when we were up there driving som enduro, one afternoon i saw this dude throwing this thing about in the air and i was awestruck, when he landed i just walked up to him and asked if i could get a ride, that was my lucky day and i will never forget it 👍
Gotta respect any man who's phones screen saver is his beautiful Dog! Great POV of a Y52. Almost bought one in 2020 but opted for a 94 Dodge Viper RT-10 instead. Couldn't afford both sadly. This young fella is obviously doing well flying high ❤ keep up the great content.
Awesome story haha, so are you happy with your V10 monster so far? Fun fact: A Viper is still on my bucket list, which generation is the big question..
Please do me a little favor: This video is by far my most successful one. Let me know: What exactly do like so much about this video? What should I do again in future videos? What to improve? Appreciate your honest feedback 🙏
I fly a Pitts my dad owns a yak55m. I’d love to have a 52 one day they are super neat planes and can be had for a fraction of a t6 or other planes like it
Yeah, absolutely I totally agree with you. I also bought a Yak 55M which undergoing an extensive restoration and hopefully flies again in the next years.
@ that’s awesome. My dad restored his 55 and it took him just under four years. We like a lot of other people would love an edge 540 or an extra but the money needed to buy and operate one is insane. The yak55 for the price is very very impressive and fun
When you run up your engine at 1700 rpm you can increase manifold pressure and the rpm will increase slightly and then it should drop back to 1700 likewise if at 1700 you drop manifold pressure slightly the rpm will drop but correct back to 1700 that way you know your governor is working properly 😊
Hi Phillip, on your Short video, flying in your plane on the Low flying Bush Flight, with Konstantin, it looks like you took off from the same Grass Strip. I just watched that Short again and it is amazing how much Greener the grass on the Air Field was during your flight with him as opposed to this filming. If you have more footage of that flight it would be great if you could create a full video of your flight together.
Hi Phillip, love the Charcoal Grey color and the Red color designs as well. It is great that the plane was recently serviced and nice and clean. It looks like it was waxed as well with the nice bright shine. I am not familiar with a Yak 52 so glad to see it up close. You mentioned that you had to turn the prop 16 blades before starting. Is this required because it was sitting and cold or do you need to do that procedure all the time? It is amazing that the plane is rated for up to 7 G's. The Seat Belt looks very substantial and I guess needed with the high G force capability. What is the most G force you have experienced in that Yak 52? Liked the sign of being able to fly much faster in an F16. Great Startup and Preflight video and looking forward to seeing it fly on the next video.
Hi Ben, thanks a lot for your feedback! So yeah, the plane has a ceramic coating on the paint. The prop turning procedure indeed is to be done before each cold start! I had 6G once, but that was already shorty before blackout..let´s see what I'm capable of in future after aerobatic training..
Great Aircraft, beautifully done, however “The full Procedure” not quite. Navigation Lights, Pitot Heat, and more importantly Fuel Drain/ Water Checks.

I'm glad I found this video. My Yak 52 didn't come with any instruction manuals. Now I can go and figure out how to fly.
Feel free to reach out, I can send you some more written instructions!

This channel is about to be huge. LOVED this!
What a pleasure to hear! 🙏 anything you’d be specifically interested in?
What a beautiful airplane! Great video!
Thank you 🙏
This is a first explanation of preflight and startup operational pre flight of a Yak 52. Beautiful airplane by the way. Congratulations!
Thanks a lot 🙏

That sounds like you were extremely lucky, love it when other pilots are happy to share their passion, even more when they not how to fly properly :)
Those are tough airplanes for flying in tough conditions. It is one of my favorite airplanes to have flown. Thanks for the video.
Oh yeah, they are. Thanks a lot for your feedback

Sehr cool. Danke Pilot_Alex für den Tipp! Hier kann man dranbleiben. 👍
Dankeschön 🙏

Appreciate your honest feedback 🙏
Because everybody simply likes a nice Yak 🤪 but wow, the 52 is so much more complex than the 55.
Klasse, freue mich aufs nächste Video und was hoffentlich demnächst bald ansteht 😉😀
Dankeschön 🙏 bist übrigens jederzeit herzlich eingeladen :)
10:16 tbh the yak-52 is more badass then the F-16
Haha I like that

Great comment, thanks a lot! Which power % is 1700rpm?
I see you are from Magdeburg. Which airfield is that please?
Yes, that is EDOZ south of Magdeburg. Are you located nearby?
Nice presentation! Does your Yak have the upgraded elevator bell crank or is it the stock aluminum one. Thanks! I fly 207YK here in the states.
So great to hear you’re flying Yaks over there, too! That’s a very good question which I cannot answer right now
Durfte früher auch öfter in einer mitfliegen - schönes Gerät 👌 Beste Grüße aus EDLO
Dankeschön 🙏 Grüße zurück nach EDLO!
Your dog has the taking the ex wife on a fishing trip enthuiasm! 😂 Poochie is like me first thing in the morning! Nice Yak.
Hahaha that comment made my day 😂

No worries, Konstantin will bring a longer video of that in one of his next episodes
On the Grass Air Strip the soil looked really dry and that probably didn't help with the bumpy Taxi.

Thanks a lot, really appreciate your feedback. You’re right, fuel et cetera was already done before
