Biggin Hill Airshow 2006 - 04 - Antonov AN2

[Gugleta]

God, what is that music??? I’m been trying to find that out for years… :-(

Oh yes, and the plain is category for itself :-)

It has NO stall sped – even without engine power, it only loose height at parachute rate.

And it has its own onboard refuelling pump, so you only need to come with canister with fuel.

So, it is definitely on mine top 15 list!

But what is that music????

@Gugleta

The music is by Prokofiev, from his musical score to the Ballet 'Romeo & Juliet'.

This particular section is called 'Montagues and Capulets' or "Dance of the Knights"

Check out his other works, you'll be equally blown away.

Enjoy

:-)

Antonov an 2 is only the world `s largest single engine biplane !

Look at "Crazy Polish Pilot in An-2-Air show Krakow" You'll see what pilot can do with this plane.

Great commentary. I'm from Poland and these are still widely used in aeroclubs throught the country. Loved & liked by pretty much everyone.
