I contacted him a week ago and he sent pictures of each project, it appears he is representing the owners who would like to offload all projects. the Yak is the most recognizable, fuselage structure rebuilt, tail surfaces partially rebuilt, and it looks by the picture that the Klimov has at least been cleaned up and given a krylon overhaul, the wing center structure is there, and spars, but all wood needs to be done so essentially it needs new wings built. Cool project, more than i can do, offers around $120K is what they would like for the yak.
As for the other 2 if you use a little imagination, then you can sort of make out that they are aeroplanes :D , apart from that , its the standard removed from far south asia or somewhere in the pacific and basically good for patterns.
Anyone gone further on these?
