The Antonov An-2 (Russian nickname: "Annushka" or "Annie" is a Soviet mass-produced single-engine biplane utility/agricultural aircraft designed and manufactured by the Antonov Design Bureau beginning in 1946.
In many ways I bet you this old plane design could replace the new modern Cessna Caravan plane that is used widely in the world today as a utility transportation plane. Might not be as fast as the Cessna Caravan but it could certainly land in areas where the other plane couldn't even think about landing and taking off. This old plane would probably carry more cargo in poundage. And add to the fact that is relatively inexpensive around $30,000 and up compared to the caravan that is probably over 1 million bucks this old design might have a lot going for it.
The An-2 is used as a light utility transport, parachute drop aircraft, agricultural work and many other tasks suited to this large slow-flying biplane. Its slow flight and good short field performance make it suited for short, unimproved fields, and some specialized variants have also been built for cold weather and other extreme environments. The Guinness Book of World Records states that the 45-year production run for the An-2 was for a time the longest ever for any aircraft
I talk to the owner who is restoring this old Russian Plane. He states it can land at about 35 miles per hour! Looking at "all" the manual flaps on this bird I can probably believe it. Looking inside it looks like a troop transporter as well design to land in rough areas.

Guess what happens when your hard drive dies? Well if you're a fan of Sims 2 you have to re-install 19 expansion and stuff packs =(
Few days ago had reliased the third episode of Life is Strange 2. I really love this game and decided to build a little scene from it.
SD40-2 3319 leads an 8-unit lashup, all SD40-2s, as it leads a train that originated in Albina Yard. It's battling a stiff grade up the Graham Line, Units three and seven have bad turbos, as evidenced by the smoke pouring out of the stacks. May 3, 1987. © 2016 Peter Ehrlich

On one of her Greenock Visits
Quite surprisingly for such a big famous visitor to Greenock not a lot of people were mulling around when I pictured her.
The 148,000grt Cunarder IMO 9241061 seemed to be getting some attention just under the port bridge wing area with the cherrypicker arm raised high before she left port for her evening sail south
