Most fun ever flying planes as a pilot and after flying Cessnas, Pipers and Bonanzas nothing comes close to the thrills. Only downside to the Yak 52 is range and lack of IFR capability. I am working toward my instrument rating and wanted to find out if an experimental plane like the Yak 52 and CJ6 are classified can be fitted with lower cost IFR avionics and used for instrument training and the checkride? Also I need to find out what the price ranges are for a Yak 52 or CJ6 since they are all across the board on TAP, Controller, etc. How much should I expect to pay for a nice Yak 52 or CJ6? I wanted at first an American warbird like an AT-6, T-34 or T-28 but prices are 3x more expensive than a Yak or CJ!! How do I get checked out in one? I looked at the Redstar Pilot group and contacted a few San Diego instructors but no luck. Never heard back from Redstar either after contacting them by email.

Help the boy get checked out. $60-70 K for YAK. $100 - 120 K for CJ 6. As far as fuel on the 52, everybody worries about it but soon find they are not going to be doing long sorties in the YAK. The CJ is the XC aircraft. The 52 can be fitted with bladders that gives her roughly 3 hours of fuel. The cockpit of both are no set up for long legged people. Hence after 1.5 hours in either of them you want to get out and stretch your legs, drain your bladder, and hydrate. You get a workout flying either aircraft.

That way I can fly the plane home once I locate the right one. I am looking at a few in California right at the moment and Yak are half the price of a CJ. So might get a Yak and with the extra cash buy a second plane like an RV7 for longer trips. I could add fuel bladders and Dynon glass panel to one. How would one take an IFR checkered with local DPE in such a plane? I know a few DPE in San Diego like Julie Keane are pretty nice folks. Anyways feel free to PM if you have contacts or want to help me reach my goals and I will reciprocate to the next Yak/CJ newbie.

Collins, CO. Excellent condition. The guy will check you out. Barnstormers. Low $50s. These are not X-country airplanes. Just go fly locally and have fun.
