HOW IT CAME TO BE

History & design

A four-seat aircraft with an aerobatic role

The Yak-18T combined a four-seat cabin with a powerful radial engine and aerobatic capability. The design served several roles in the former Soviet aviation system, including training, transport, ambulance work, aerial photography and pipeline patrol. Nemeth describes that versatility as central to its recreation. Its retractable undercarriage and much greater mass and power distinguish this aircraft from a simple light two-seat trainer despite the shared Yak-18 family name.
