  • A few days ago i had an opportunity to film something that i never have before... some agricultural aviation action! 4 PZL-Mielec M-18 Dromader crop dusters and 2 An-2s were used in a mosquito control action in the fields and areas around and in Belgrade. In this video i will only focus on the Dromader, An-2 will come in some upcoming videos.
    Anyways, it is not an everyday thing to see radial piston engines in action. Nearly 1000hp of pure, earth shaking power! The pilots were very kind to let me film from so up close, and inside one of the planes.
    Enjoy in this amazing sound, and quite an interesting sight!

    2000 liters capacity in the hopper. Cockpit cage stressed to about 20 Gs. Ag pilots the world over are the best. My first real job was loading ag chemicals and fueling a Rockwell Thrush Commander. Nothing like those old radial engined beasts. Don’t see many with radials anymore-turboprops have largely replaced them. The bird I serviced had a 600 hp radial from a T-6 trainer.

    I started firebombing in radial Droms. Now turbine Garrett powered, the performance is up but the character of the piston radial is gone.
    Excellent machine for ag work too and I enjoyed that too. Every radial start was like waking a living beast.
    A bit heavy on the controls and very trim sensitive but overall, a wonderful experience and a good safe workhorse.
    Much respect for Eastern Block aircraft. Tough as nails.

      Well there are still certain number of this version with radial engine. This is Russian type, same is at Antonov-2 But there are more turbo propeller versions. You can recognize them by a very long nose, as this type of engine is much lighter, so in order to keep the center of gravity you must move lighter engine more forward. Otherwise construction of wings and fuselage is unchanged.

    Good for that old man. I am seventy and he looks old enough to be my twin brother. Nice video of him doing what he has been around doing for most likely a lot of years and quite possibly in that same plane. Showing him doing flyby after flyby at 300-400+ feet on the same run over the airfield turning his sprayers on and off was a nice little tribute.
    The marvel of it all is that he is still around and still climbing in the cockpit and flying around. Only in Serbia maybe. He nor the plane could probably pass on an annual while insurance and the paperwork to operate would be impossible to obtain in a place like the U.S.

    Someone has got this engine right on! I believe that it’s a Wright 1820- or something similar to it. Let me know please, great videos.

      The engine is Shvetsov ASh-62, quite a beast of an engine with 1000hp
