Ok 'BH YAK 55M owners!' (I know there is a lot of you out there) I now have the custom headers for the YAk's in stock for the 275. If you are ready to loose some noise and gain the performance from cans, I have your headers!

Give me a call and order them today!

Bill

Thanks for the Invite!

I lived in Florida for a long time and know right where Fantasy of flight is, I would love to go

But like Bill said, that is a long trip for us and since I'm not a sponsored pilot

It would most likely cost me $5000 to build a crate and have the 50% Yak shipped over there.
