Love the look of those vintage trainers from 30s.. Again, browsing through a behemoth image collection taken at the last year’s trip to Oshkosh, I found a few pics deserving to ‘talk about’.
What type it was? Seen in Oshkosh, on the last year’s ‘AirVenture’.
Attracted my attention because of a painting job on the rudder. Surprisingly - most Yakovlev’s trainers had the same ’strip pattern’ on their tails. Like this Ut-2, at the ‘Vadim Zadorozhny Museum’
Moreover, - I can see further similarities between these two, - both are low-wing monoplane two-seaters, with open cockpits, and radial engines..
Red strips on the tail.. Hmm.. Isn’t it an international sign of ‘rookie pilot under controls here‘?:)
