Yakovlev AIR-11

The Yakovlev AIR-11, also known as the LT-1, was a three-seat low-wing touring cabin monoplane designed by A.S. Yakovlev around 1936 in the Soviet Union. It was reportedly inspired by the Percival Gull and used his usual structure of wooden wings and a fabric covered steel tube fuselage, with a spatted fixed undercarriage. The pilot and first passenger sat side by side under an upward-folding hood. It first flew in late 1936 and took second place in the two-seat section of an air race in July 1937. Sergei Ilyushin later used it to commute between Moscow and Voronezh.
