Default Yak close call

Not necessarily. There are several Yak demo pilots on the circuit and seeing
the paint on the clip isn't all that easy.
I have a friend who has an LOA for the Mig 21 who might recognize the clip
and be able to ID the airplane and driver...perhaps not. I sent him the clip
link tonight.
Looks real to me :-))

Yeah, it's hard to tell...and we may never know if it's real or a fake.
I've seen enough faked pictures that I tend to first suspect they're
fake.
Movies though...this is the first one I've wondered about. Interesting
observations though Dudley.


I'll ask around and see if I can get a handle on it.

If it is legit then there should be plenty of credible eyewitnesses.
