Yakovlev Yak-52 Flying Demonstration at Brimpton Airfield

During the fly-in day at Brimpton Airfield in Berkshire on 10/May/2009 a Yakovlev Yak-52 (a Russian training plane) gave a 15 minute flying demonstration. The English pilot demonstrated the flying capabilities of the plane with loopings, barrel rolls and other maneuvers. His wife (who is also a pilot) gave a running commentary of the demonstration (you can hear her voice explaining the maneuvers at times during the video).

The video only covers parts of the demonstration, I didn't manage to record the whole event at a usable quality. I hope it still provides a good impression of the plane and its as well as its pilot's capabilities.
