Though based on the World War Two Yakovlev Yak-3U, this example is based on a Yak-11 airframe and was built in Romania in 2005, powered by a Pratt and Whitney R-2000 radial engine. It was registered N46463 to William E Whiteside, in California in 2005, and was used in the Reno Air Races with the name ‘Steadfast’.
In 2011 it broke the 3K World Speed Record at Wendover, Utah in the USA travelling at a speed of 416.02 mph (670 kph). You can watch a video of this event here http://vimeo.com/30833749
In late 2013, it was shipped to Australia and has been under rebuild in the AeroJacks hangar since November 2013. It was registered in Australia on 24 December 2013 as VH-YOV, but still carries its US registration. Great to see it on static display with the Australia day aircraft at Jandakot.

Built in 1948, ex N628B. Although it wears RAAF blue/white World War 2-style roundels, it never served with the military. It was imported into Australia in 1961 by Flinders Island Airlines (hence the ‘FI’ in the registration), to replace their Avro Ansons.
