Dan Stefanescu from Aerobatic Yakker - Yakovlev Yak-52 TW, LY-WAA, aerobatic plane

Pilot Dan Ștefănescu, the right wing of the aerobatic display team "Iacării Actobaţi" (the Aerobatic Yakers) at Aeronautic Show 2016 Lacul Morii, Bucharest, Romania.
What a great sport with a lot of passion for what he does. His full-time job is as B737 airline pilot.

This Yak-52 is modified with a tailwheel and a western 3-bladed propeller and avionics fit. A little known fact is that all Yak-52s were produced under license in Bacău, Romania.
