I provided you already in the past with an image of this Antonov An-2 airplane. Here's another picture of this well known guest in the Zeeland airspace.

It's designed by the Ukrainian Antonov Aeronautical Scientific-Technical Complex (Antonov ASTC).

The AN-2 performed its first flight on August 31, 1947. The An-2 remained in production until 1991.

This one, registered as 'DM-SKL', is owned by the German 'Classic Wings' organization now. It was brought into service on May 10, 1958.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

The only clue that this is not suspended in mid air and is actually moving is the whir and motion seen around the blades...another excellent shot in this series.

Beautiful capture SEA. I have always loved the Biplanes. They make me think of County Fairs and Daredevils.

The first photo of this aircraft I have seen. Must be like the DC-3, never done.
