But no the Olympus went on to power Concorde.

Back on topic I think Nimrod is a good name.
Hey now. Let's not go crazy with what we say, alright? We don't want anyone's feelings getting hurt, with me having to show them up with a VK-105PF-2 Engine. lol

Now I'm not sure where this is shot, but the paint job is definitely Normandie-Niemen. Who were French pilots flying for the Soviets in WW2. This is the only Yak-3 I know of, that is actually flying with a reproduction VK-105PF-2 engine. Unlike the more familiar Airshow Yak-3 "White 100" which is powered by an Allison. Anyway, enjoy.
