The various fabric-covered items were checked and a broken windscreen replaced.

In the meantime, a museum staff member refurbished the engine in working order.

Seem simple, but all that work took one year to complete.

Epilogue

In 1994, the preparation work was completed and the aircraft ready to be exchanged.

All the parts were packed and it was up to the Air Force to transport it to its new home.

Today, you can have a look at the result of this work: a nice Yak 11 in Czechoslovakian marking is now standing in the Hall of the museum.
