Ultimate YAK 52 Adventure

What to Expect

Get ready for an incredible aerobatic flight in a Russian YAK 52 complete with its original colours, instrumentation and radios. For nerves and stomachs that can cope with the extreme excitement, this YAK 52 aerobatic adventure is sure to topple your gyros.

After a briefing from your experienced pilot, you'll board the YAK 52 and take off, rising to a dizzy height from where your aerobatics will begin. Your pilot will perform a number of head spinning moves and sequences, designed to thrill even the most die hard of fliers.

Your aerobatics will start gently and each one will increase your resistance before you move on to the most hair-raising manoeuvres. But don't worry, you are in constant contact with your pilot and can lower the pace if it's all too much. After all these YAKs were built to withstand high Gs and speed � they can push the limits of even the thirstiest of adrenaline junkies!
