The T34 unfortunately, more or less fits this visualization.

I have done some areobatic instructing in the YAK-52, a plane
that in my opinion is far more suitable for this kind of work
than the T-34 in which I learned to fly.
The YAK is slowed somewhat by the radial engine and the gear
resting outside the wing in the retracted position.
The YAK also came equiped with an inverted fuel system and a
7g wing.

Unfortunately...the YAK must be certificated in the "Experimental
Exhibition" category and therefore cannot be used for hire.
