Geoff Latter (Part 2): Learning to fly a Yak-50
"This is one of only a few planes that I've flown where it has such a high degree of thrust to weight that you can do a maneuver like a tail slide; decide you don't like the tail slide, apply power, and fly out of the tail slide while going backwards."
Part 2 of our discussion with Geoff Latter, airline captain and airshow pilot, where he explains the origins of the aerobatic Yak-50, his quest to get one to Canada, and the process of learning to fly an obscure single seat aircraft. Geoff even taught himself Russian so he could read the operating handbook!
