yeah, I've heard things about them. Guys I work with. We fly in beavers and otters- but they can't do AN-2's in Canada/US for commercial. But you hear about 'em overseas for bush jobs. I'd love to fly in one. And now they have a composite, turbine redesign I just found today- that's a a hell of a plane. but costs 10X as much as one of the old, ridiculously cheap radials.

I think it looks better than an AK. Definitely has the reliability.

not a bit

I thought that might be Belenko. What a treasure!

Fucking traitor

Don't say it too loud, you may get stoned to death by some crazy American Nationalist . . . 🙄

Listen to him in the cockpit and he says battling to get over 80

@@RGF56 put in a R2800 engine problem solved.

Thats true! There was a horrible crash once in Russia. In a crisis situation, the russian pilot on a western plane, automatically fell back to basic flying school memories and crashed the plane, because of this difference!

@@paulhorn2665 Perm it was.. He almost made a full roll before crashing the plane

Oh yes!

I got to be a part of a crew that flew an AN-2 from New Jersey to Lakeland Florida for an airshow was very impressed at its design and capabilities. It is slow and noisy but still an amazing machine. In many ways, it is built more like a piece of agricultural equipment than an airplane. But what may appear to be a crude design is, for the most part, brilliantly simple and rugged. For example, the air brakes avoid the need for easily contaminated brake fluid that would freeze solid in a Russian winter. And the bungee leading edge STOL cuffs are pulled out by air air flow when the angle of attack goes above a certain value and are retracted automatically by bungee cords when the nose goes down.

Just like he said, in the video, they pump themselves up there’s an air compressor driven by the engine, as well as the landing struts are pneumatic

There is something known as "speed ratio" in aeronautical design, and anything approaching 4:1 maximum speed to minimum speed is very good indeed. An aircraft that can touch 100kts and land at 25-30kts is akin to a cessna 172 that can exceed 190ktas with a 48kt stall speed.

"The ASh-62 was a development of the Wright R-1820 Cyclone, built under license in Russia" it's a copy.

Vigor Od Bgda it’s neither licensed or copy it is antonov 2 build by antonov you don’t know what you talking about d h**d

Pavel Rodriguez Do you mean ‘yourself’?

@@ErikJohnston hello you just have demonstrated you condition reflexes are confuse , because you are defending a position . prove to you self , I AM AMERICAN NATIONAL , I SPEAK AMERICAN , you are color coded. Do you mean you self ? WTF . saludos

Pavel Rodriguez But.... I thought it would be appropriate for you to use proper grammar if your going to correct someone else’s grammar.... just brain storming here! Haha

Pavel Rodriguez I’m happy you like the video! But please understand how KZfaq works and I cannot just go review the video and make simple changes like that. I’m sorry that how my good friend Andrew spoke during the video bent you out of shape, but get over it. You just watched a free video and got more of a response from the uploader (ME) than most people do. Take care my friend. Try shoving a camera in your face at the last second in over 110 degree heat and MAKE SURE YOU SAY EVERYTHING PERFECT!!!! Hahahahaha

God damn you're an idiot. Stupid units? Did you come up with that all by yourself? He wasn't making fun of metric gauges either.
