The original An-72 and An-74 had engines mounted above the wings. This provided two advantages: 1) it reduced the possibility of engine damage from the ground debris during takeoff and landing, so it allowed the plane to be used on unpaved runways. 2) Engine exhaust over the wings provided addition lift due to Coanda Effect. So An-74 is capable of STOL (short takeoff/landing), but alas, this minor additional lift came at too much of an expense as the engines lost significant thrust. Hence this traditional under-the-wing-engine An-74TK-300. This variant had a much better fuel economy, thrust and longer range. There're only two above-wing engined planes: An-72/74 and Boeing Yc-14, designed to take advantage of the Coanda Effect. They're both design failures.
L'atterrissage tout en douceur wow! Heureusement qu'il y à une longue piste devant lui ;) non mis il peut se le permettre avec cette avion à GVA :D Bravo vidéo magnifique !

+Purwa Adiyasa Nope, this is an An-74 with engines under the wing ;) Pretty rare to see some flying :)
My dad see this plane at GVA too :) He is Pilot on the LH 737 and was yesterday ( 5.9.15 ) at GVA :D Do u film him ?
+SXF Spotter 1:22 This 737? :D

+SXF Spotter Well no sorry I didn't film it..
ohhh -??? AHTOHOB 74 dawn TURBOFANS-??? so BEST BEAUTY soo much-¡

Yo creo q eso es un AN 158. No un antonov
Это не Ан 74
It is AH-74
