Yak 3-M 'White 100' For Sale

I always understood it to be at Pent Farm but as it didn’t get back to flying soon, imagined it would become increasingly less likely to. I’m somewhat perturbed to see the owner listed as ‘deceased’ on G-INFO, I vaguely knew him some years ago.

I see that the same goes for the G-INFO listing of T-6G G-BGHU. I did find this info regarding the Yak from 2017 though.

The next pilot I met was a local, Chris Bellhouse, whose name will be familiar to Tiger Club members as he was chairman for a while. In the immaculate hangar where he kept his Texan and other aircraft, he said, ‘If I only had to choose just one aeroplane to own, it would be the Texan. I’ve kept it for thirty years.’ He had operated it from Pent Farm for the last decade after moving it from Headcorn. Vintage Aero’s engineering support was one reason for the move. His wife kept a Jodel and they owned a Midget Mustang and an under-restoration Yak-3.

Not heard anything, would have thought him well enough known to have raised some comment on here, Flyer or PPRuNe… I occasionally bump into someone locally who would know, if I see him over the weekend I’ll ask.

Anyone happen to know the status/outlook for the Yak-3 G-CDBJ? It’s the only one besides G-OLEG on the UK registry, but was damaged in a landing accident 11 years ago. Last I heard was that it was undergoing repairs, but I don’t recall seeing anything of the aircraft since 2008 when it was still flying.

One, AFAIK. G-OLEG.

So how many Yak-3/9s do fly in the UK now?
