Interesting facts about the Yakovlev Yak 50
✈ The Yakovlev Yak 50 is a single seat, all metal, low wing aerobatic aircraft with retractable main gear and a tailwheel. Control surfaces use fabric to reduce weight.
✈ First flight took place on 25 June 1975. Production ran from 1975 to 1986 with 314 aircraft built.
✈ The aircraft uses a supercharged Vedeneyev M-14P radial engine rated at 360 hp, with some aircraft fitted with M-14PF or M-14R upgrades.
✈ Compressed air operates the retractable main landing gear, the wheel brakes and the engine starter, which keeps the Yak 50’s systems simple and robust.

FAQs About the Yakovlev Yak 50
How much does a Yakovlev Yak 50 cost?
In 2024–2025, typical Yak 50 asking prices ranged from about $80,000 to $120,000 in the USA and Europe. Engine time, propeller hours, spar mods, avionics and paperwork quality move the price within that range.
What engine does the Yakovlev Yak 50 use, and what should buyers look for?
Most Yak 50s use the Vedeneyev M-14P radial rated at 360 hp. Many have the M-14PF 400 hp upgrade. Review recent cylinder work, propeller time since overhaul, air system condition and oil system health. Check the compressor output and look for leaks in the pneumatic lines and valves.
Is the Yakovlev Yak 50 suitable for aerobatic training and competition?
Yes. The Yak 50 was built for aerobatics with g limits of +9 and −6, light ailerons and strong roll performance. Confirm completion of the key wing spar service bulletins and verify recurring inspections before hard aerobatic use.
What are typical cruise fuel burns and endurance?
At economy cruise many Yak 50s burn about 50 litres per hour and fly near 250–280 km/h. A standard single tank gives short legs, while aircraft fitted with the auxiliary tank extend endurance and range significantly.
What ownership items are unique to the Yak 50?
The aircraft uses compressed air for starting, gear and brakes, so buyers should factor in compressor condition, air bottle pressure checks and leak testing. Many airframes benefit from Western avionics, ELT and transponder upgrades which improve utility and resale appeal.
