Although on display within the museum this aircraft is still airworthy.

Some warbird owners vehemently deny that their plane, with only an original c/n plate or a few small parts, is a replica. Having a new designation, the Lycoming-powered Yak-9UM makes no false claims of being completely authentic. This aircraft even says 'Replica' on the canopy frame, although I'd say it is an original UM. It also wears the text 'Москва' (Moscow). Soviet WWII aircraft often wore slogans in this fashion, rather than names.

Built as a Let C11 trainer it was one of a large batch of the type acquired by Alain Chapel and Jean Salis from the Egyptian Air Force in 1985. In 1988 it was sold to the USA where it was rebuilt as a Yak-9, registered N9YK and sold to Jean-Marie Garric who replaced the original radial with an Allison V-12. It returned to France in 2003 and is now painted as a Yak-3 in the colours of Marcel Albert the most successful pilot of the Normandy Niemen Squadron, who served from the creation of the group in December 1942 until the end of the war and returned to France with his YaK-3 gifted by Stalin.

Carries the markings of The Normandie-Niemen Squadron of Free French fighter pilots who scored impressive victories with the Soviet Air Force.
