Look man, I got nothing but love for the Yak-9. Hell, my avatar pic is of me flying in the Yak-9.
But Sean never had a chance. After all, he was going up against the greatest fighter pilot alive today.
Dunno if this is the right forum. We did the flyby at Sebring in our Yak-18s. Thought I'd share.

Ok....
I got tired of all the hypotheticals so I had Dale Snodgrass in an F4U-5 fight Sean Carroll in a Yak-9 at St. Augustine this weekend.
Snort kicked Pinball's ass up and down the beach.
Corsair wins.

The story I've heard about the hangar is the -5 we had participated in the Soccer Wars in Honduras and was found crashed into the side of a mountain. It was then restored and shortly thereafter lost at sea due to running out of gas. It was recovered AGAIN, and restored AGAIN.

We all flew together to his first public exhibition at the Culpeper, VA airshow this Fall. Good times, good times...

141s!! Where did you base out of???
My grandpa finished out his career flying 141s all over the world. He loved that plane. (Although not quite as much as the P-51D the P-40)
I don't personally know them, but I definately know who they are. They've got the 2nd best flight team in Delaware!! I'm sure the senior members of my flight crew are friendly with them.
