ANTONOV An-2
The An-2 is a single-engine, fixed-landing-gear, 12-seat canvas biplane.
The first one was built in 1947 for crop dusting by the Russian Ministry of Agriculture.
Nicknamed the "Kukuruznik" or cornhusker, the An-2 has evolved from a down-home cropduster to a
trans-Siberian
people mover. Its 1,200 horsepower engine shakes, rattles,
and rolls, but it's sure to get you where you're going. | |
