The original function of the Yak-18T was to serve as a trainer for the students of the Soviet airline Aeroflot.

It is aerobatical and completes the Indy Air race in 2'17''.

    What I'd really love to see from you is investing more time per build. Working out various kinks, finding ways to do things better. For example, this plane should have a round nose. It also has a tiny step below trailing edge of the left wing root. You could have also made some insignia on wings, maybe some seam lines, little bulges to represent door hinges, registration number on the big flat side of the rear fuselage... It's details like that that make a difference between a decent builder and a great one. If you need help learning how to do that stuff, you can contact me anytime you want, or ask advice from many other good builders. It would be a shame if a user with as much potential as you have stops at higher end of the mediocre area. Keep improving.
