Gerald Oliver submitted this photo and note: “We just happened to catch this Yak on takeoff from the Eagles Nest Airport (T56) in Midlothian, Texas, as the Historic Aircraft Preservation Society’s 1931 Fleet Model 8 (the last one flying), 1942 J-3 Cub, and a 1965 Ford Mustang sit nicely on a grassy patch.”
