Installation on Yak, CJ, Sukhoi, and other homebuilt airplanes are all possible even though the system was originally developed for our Pitts Model 12 kit airplane.

Which on e are you referring to? Plain old -18, -18A, -18P, -18PM, -18T etc? The o nly one I know of that might be in production today is the -18T, possibly a turbine version, though I haven't read anything about them for quite a wh ile Other than the -18T there are very few of the other versions still left =2E Probably more of them in Europe than in the US. A good source of information is the Yak bulletin board called the "Yak-list" (yak-list@matronics.com). Lots of knowledgeable folks all around the wor ld read it. You might drop a post and see what happens. In fact I'll cc th is to the list.

While living in Alaska in the mid 90's I discovered the Yaks and in particular the Yak-18. It is true that his aircraft is in production in updated form? Do you often have any of the older 18's come through your hands? I can't seem to find enough on the market to get a fix on their value. Really like the "keep it simple" point of view!
