I think the AN-2 is the most wonderful aeroplane. First made over 70 years ago and still flying . The motor is basically an American design from the 1930’s. It is one of the best STOL machines in the world. It has a number of quirky but eminently practical design features. I believe it is one of the toughest airplanes ever made. Love it.

[@PilotBlogDenys]

Yeah, that is a gret airplane!

[@mramaretto114]

[@carenthusiast6748]

Heavily inspired from an german ww2 stol airplane and engine based on american engine, airplane designed by russian and production was mainly in ukraine and poland. Truly a world Plane.

[@oldergeologist]

@@carenthusiast6748 what was the German plane? I don’t know of any similar to the AN2.

[@carenthusiast6748]

@@oldergeologist "One of Antonov’s greatest influences during the engineering stage of his aircraft was the wing design of the Fieseler Fi 156 Storch, a German military liaison airplane that was renowned for its excellent STOL performance. Antonov sought to replicate the Storch’s great slow-speed flying characteristics and its ability to operate out of austere, unimproved airfields. The engineer’s merging of the myriad functional goals of his prospect (including his original ideas), the guidelines set forth by the Ministry of Forestry, and the performance of the Fi 156, would prove a great, and historically enduring, success."

[@matthewhamel7192]

Where do they operate them? Does anyone fly them in the USA? I really want to fly them!

[@samrussell9264]

It starts, it moves, it takes off... You know it's a classic aircraft when you think " If it takes off now that'll be impressive" and realise that it's already airborne.

[@PilotBlogDenys]

Yes, the take off is very smooth)))

[@rihardssimis6654]

I thought it was taxiing but it was flying already

[@patolt1628]

Robust aircraft! A flying tractor. Awesome! It reminds me an old french aircraft we used in the French Army Aviation, called Max Holste MH1521 Broussard (Bushman in English), robust as well but with disastrous performances (450 hp, radial engine but 100 kts in cruise speed ...). The skydivers loved it since it took 30 mn to clim to 3000m so they had time to get ready while the Puma (H/C) was doing the same in less than 10mn ... However I flew once the Broussard despite I had indeed the feeling to fly a tractor, I enjoyed it and I would enjoy flying an An-2, for sure. Like you I did also some parachuting because it was mandatory in the officers school but, to be honest, I didn't really like it (why jumping from a perfectly working airplane?) By the way: no seat belts for the pilots? Hope you fly again in your airline. All the best to you

[@PilotBlogDenys]

Hi, Pat! Nice to read your comment and your experience. Yes, no belts 😂

[@mardiffv.8775]

The seatbelts are not necessary in a AN-2, in case of an engine failure. Pull the yoke towards, wait for the plane to stall and crash land like a helicopter. That is the official procedure.

[@branimirfilovski8388]

There are also few AN-2 here in Slovenia. I hope I get the oportunity to fly it one day! Awesome video!

[@PilotBlogDenys]

I hope so too!

В 1988 году, этот АН-2 с этим номером работал в Крыму на химии. Он каждое утро поднимался на высоту и запрашивал свою базу на разрешение полетов. Он из Днепропетровска прилетал. В наушниках было слышно: Монолит, 43970, Монолит. Надо же, до сих пор в строю.

I wonder if you heard about the An-2 that ground-looped back in May of 2006. Still showing it's faded Aeroflot livery, it was the sole airworthy An-2, along wiith about ten more, parked at a small airfield located a few kilometers outside of Kyiv. Both myself and the PIC walked away unscathed!

Hello, great video, you should definitely do more. I would like to fly the An2 myself, would actually want to learn to fly it, any idea how can that be done?

Hi there! It depends on what you need. You can fly it with PPL and for your joy. Or you may have CPL and fly it for commercial purpose. What you need is Pilot License + Type rating (Antonov-2). Thanks for your question!

[@rami6902]

@@PilotBlogDenys Thank you for telling me that. I will look at the Vilga 35. I really like your videos. I recently retired and now hope to pursue aviation. I am fascinated by the Russian built aircraft, so strong and beautiful, like the YAK 18t and AN-2. I would love to have AN-2 but it seems the engine is hard to replace. My uncle was airline pilot like you. He introduced me to flying when I was a kid. Now I hope to travel, and fly. Good luck to you and be safe always. Thank you again for your nice and informative videos.

Why is there a stick wedged in the pilot and Co-pilot's windows? Shows at 13:25............. Wait a minute, at 20:19 the pilot moves his stick to slide open the window. Basic tech at its best.

Are there any additional preparations inside a cockpit before dropping skydivers, like flaps position or something like that? I like this types of videos, looking forward for Vilga)

[@PilotBlogDenys]

I was quite confused there but I think that captain just reduced the speed from 140km/h to 110km/h and also trimmed the airplane. I didn't see the flaps. Actually I don't know where is the flap selector of lever on Antonov-2🤣

I am not an expert in those cables. I think everything was fine as for me.

[@mfbfreak]

I think that it should have a nice truck horn. The brakes sound very truck-like, the engine sounds like a beefy truck engine, now to give it a horn! DOOT DOOT! [Pshhhh!]

[@tffexx]

Can you tell me one thing sir...You can't even open a window in passenger aircrafts bt in these type of aircrafts you can even open the door...how??

[@PilotBlogDenys]

Because Antonov-2 files very low. Commercial airplanes fly very high so there is a differential pressure. The airplane is pressurised by engine bleed air to keep the cabin altitude of around 8000ft if the real altitude of airplane is 41000ft The air pressure is so low at 41000ft that in case you open the door (it is not possible but never try). Some of the stuff will be blown out and explosive decomposition is possible. The human brain may keep conscious at 41000ft for 5-10 seconds. That is our time to put the oxygen masks. I hope you got it 🙂

Yes sir I understood and many thanks for the information

Русский? Google Translate сообщает, что ваша рубашка на русском языке. Что-то о великом казане, что бы это ни было. Просто любопытно насчет языка. Тем более, что автоматически сгенерированные английские субтитры не работают, если вы не говорите по-английски. Я знаю, как сказать несколько слов по-русски, но в основном военные термины я почерпнул из видеоигр. Кроме этого, я ничего не знаю. Russian? Google Translate says your shirt is in Russian language. Something about great kazan, whatever that is. Just curious about the language. Particularly since the auto generated English subtitles don't work when you don't speak English it seems. I know how to say a few words in Russian, but mostly military terms I've picked up from video games. Other than that, I am clueless.
