YAK-9D - part 1

 Another gem from the box load I was given in July, the YAK-9 is a kit I have never built.  This one was reasonably complete - wheels down and all - but as with the others from this batch, the paint was rather rough.  More importantly, it was missing part of the tail.  

Spot the replacement part!  Carved from plastic card and liberally glued in place. 

New paint. While it dried I raided the decal box.
