- Russian brilliance. The sheer size, slow flight capabilities and power this Antonov AN2 has is unbelievable.
We were taken to the skies by Larry & Jason Beamish and they sure did fly extremely well. The executive seating in the back made for a very comfortable ride and I can see how this plane had been used in the past for private transportation.
The 1000 horsepower engine was something to witness, burning 200L of Avgas and 6L of oil per hour, it could certainly power a small town!
Thank you very much to Jan Bothma and both the rest of the time for making this such an awesome experience.

My father used to fly AN 2 in Poland. Amazing memories from countless summers at Baltic Sea doing scenic flights in the 90s.
I was just in Poland last week and saw these wonderful flying machines!
What a unique airplane! Great job documenting it as well, Thomas. The content just keeps getting better. Looking forward to the next one.
Thanks so much! Appreciate it
So happy to see that Daizy found herself a hanger. Visited her many times during my training at Jack Taylor as she soaked up weeks of sun.. Great video Gents!!🍻
There’s such a long story to this old lady! Glad she’s being kept in good shape
What a gorgeous beast! Hauls a ton of stuff and people into the bush. Pickup truck with wings. Thanks for the fly-along.
More like a tank than a pickup 😂 appreciate your support John!
They just keep getting better! Great job guys keep it up
Thanks Ryan, appreciate it man!
Appreciate your sharing flying. You are very lucky to be able to do what you love. Flying is a dream in my HEART.
Very lucky indeed! Thanks Lance
There’s quite a fleet of An 2 in Cuba used by the army and the state
It’s mainly used to deliver news paper to rural areas and for fumigation and also to train pilots.
Yellow fiber hits it’s peak in summer and once in a week you can hear the noise of that engine flying meters above the rooftops 😅
My dad told me a story that they were coming back from “Island of Youth” is an island located south west from the main land. Long story short, the plane lost its engine while above sea
They had to request different airstrip to land and locally they did make it safely.
Watching this machinery fly would make any young kid dream of becoming a pilot
I gotta say it did it for me 😊
“that the preservation of the passed is of upmost importance that defining your self upon the theoretical paled in comparison compared to the rock you carved yesterday”
truer words have never been spoken
only if we would stop trying to rewrite history and learn, we would not be in the position we are all in today.
great story telling, loved it!
Amazing plane!
A work of art!
Great vid 👏👏 good to have you guys on board again 😃✈️
Thanks Jason, couldn’t have done it without you man! ✈️
Amazing, a plane so light and fluffy! yet large enough to rival the inside of a Goose.
Still useful and functional
Beautiful
Thank you! Cheers!
Awesome
Thanks Marcus!
0:19 That's the cleanest looking AN-2 I've ever seen. Usually they're quite a bit more beaten up than that... :-)
Has to be the original tin parachute.
I really want to fly one. Even if only for a couple of hours
I jump out a Antonow I I , a view static lines and just one free fal at 8.500 FT
The only thing that comes to mind when I see an AN2 are the words : "Relax, I'm a pilot." Also "Hey John, BARREL ROLL".
....huh.
I wish maule would make a 4 seat 180 of this plane
This aircraft fuel type please tell
Burns 200L of avgas per hour...
@@ThomasMarrow thank you
How many gallons does it hold and what is the distance?
Lots of gallons and not so much distance 😂
I do not believe that that big plane does not stall. In that case, they should have never lost a single plane to such a condition.
Its ex polish SP-KTS
Interesting! Will do some research
came here from stranger things season 4
Noup it's not Russian it's Ukrainian because an 2 or Antonov 2 been made by Ukrainian aircraft company Antonov
Check the history. An-2 was made in Novosibirsk, Russian SFSR. Maiden flight of the Antonov An-2 was accomplished 6 years before the entire design bureau was moved from Novosibirsk to Kiev by Nikita Khrushchev's order. All sources are open, it is unnecessary to make any falsifications here.
