Title: Yak-3 with red flag on the tail
Post by: 66misos on October 17, 2014, 10:06:21 AM

Hi,
I found at airforce.ru forum the nice photo of Yak-3 with the red flag painted on the tail:

(http://vif2ne.ru/nvi/forum/files/Owl/(141016232232)_giap_yak3.jpg)

It is quite similar to Yakimenko's plane http://sovietwarplanes.com/board/index.php?topic=752.0 (http://sovietwarplanes.com/board/index.php?topic=752.0):

and

but different board number and style of the flag painted on the tail.

regards,
