A great thanks from an Serbian pilot for keeping this beauty flying! We used to call her Tiha Izvidjačica (The Silent Scout). One of the interessting detail about her hybride nature when it comes to building doctrine is the fact that the control stick, the same one used on other Yugoslav designes such as J-20 Kraguj and Utva 75, as well the Soko G2 and J-21 fighter jets is that it is an exact copy of the German stick used on amoung the others the Messerschmidt Me-109.
there was one near mont laurier Quebec canada twenty years ago , i felt in love whit it , but was not prepare enough to buy it . i still love this plane , i love the look , would be nice on float for bush plane.
Not sure if you have seen the Aermacchi AM-3CM Bosbok which is similar. I will have mine flying in the US next summer. Also has a GSO 480 but 3 seats tandem.
There is one renewed (very nice) near me. I hear her a lot of times but only once I saw her flying... This i about sound 🤣😂. By end of week there is (LQBZ) skydive competition, and go there to see her in action 😉.
Really cool a/c that I only recently discovered. But PLEASE...do something about those shoulder harnesses. Great way to turn a survivable crash into permanent paralysis.
The name of the theme song at the beginning and end of the video is "Take Off." It is an original composition by my long time friend, composer and pianist Roger MacNaughton. I asked him if he had time to come up with something for me and that is what I received from him. I love it. You can find Roger on the internet, his music is on Sound Cloud I believe, and his web site is: rogermacnaughton.com
Spareparts are available, thru the right channels. I do have some used parts and also new like brake pads, nav lights, landing light cover............. I'm an A&P and also a pilot, living and working in Italy, Europe . And yes i have flown the UTVA 66 also, From germany over Italy to Dubrovnik and final stop for maintenance at Belgrad.

Interesting information there thank you. But, from what I recall about flying the Utva, it was anything but silent! Thanks for watching!
Haha! That is why we called her so! You can hear her approaching from miles away! Keep the good work👍👍
Many of my skydiving jumps I made from this plane. I love this noisy beautiful bird.
It's noisy for sure!
I like the plane. I was first introduced to the UTVA 66 at an airfield in Bosnia. Great plane and huge.
As one subscriber said . . . built like a bridge.
Yes. Strong landing gear and construction. Slats in front of eilerons etc

Amazing video "T"!
Happy to hear you enjoyed it.
It is scary if you are in it with 4 people, jumped out of it a few times :)
I bet.
and now it's for sale!! I just ran across it on Facebook and didnt know what it was so did a RUclips search and found "THE" plane!!!
Yeah, I heard he had sold and found a Bonanza for the "Family Hauler." Probably a better choice.
Great work!
Thank you! Cheers!

Interesting. Where will it be next summer?

Very cool
There’s one for sale right now but man that fuel consumption is a deal breaker
Thirsty bird fo sho.
With it clearly being purpose built, the target market probably doesn't mind the tradeoff.
6.4 miles per gallon that beast doesn't drink it chugs.
It's thirst is only surpassed by it's noise.

Airplane has since been sold. We can only hope the new owner upgrades.
Could you tell me the name of song at the beginning please?

Why would you ruin the sound of an aircraft engine with elevator music? 🤮
