The pilot is great! Well, he was not taken aback, he saved people, and the car ...

[Alexander 3]

Those who are incapable in our Air Force are rejected. - Well done in a non-standard situation, they accepted one single correct thing.

[Thrifty]

As they say, it's good that ends well!

[seregatara1969]

One engine of the An-2 plane failed! Am I the only one here to read the article?

The article has already been corrected. In the beginning it was "one of the engines failed." True, the plane was not named, then they only wrote that the An-2

[Zug]

This motor was still installed on the Ishak I-16 - the old one. That is why it refused. Grit, that's enough, I'm retiring!

[Crowe]

The pilot is great!

Join us!

Maxim Kabakov will be nominated for the award

Deserved. Well done!

[Raven 95]

An-2 campaign.
This one is where he likes to sit.

[Asad]

Does AN 2 have two engines?

[Bradley]

Spare in the cabin just in case.

[Nikolaevich I]

Quote: Bradley

Did he sit down to change the engine?

[tovarich-andrey.62goncharov]

Well, yes. If there were more, they would write "AN-4" ...

[dauria]

one of the engines of the light military transport aircraft failed.

Then the Czech Elka L-410 is more likely. We don't seem to have any others. Unless the imports of second-hand were bribed for this case. These are full of all sorts. And they will sit where you want.

[26rus]

This is in the text "one of ...", and in the message of the MO "the engine thrust has disappeared." So it is quite possible An-2.

[Bad_gr]

Paratroopers in the Pskov region performed a training flight on an airplane An-2... This was announced by a source of Izvestia in the defense department.

As noted in the Ministry of Defense, the incident took place in the area of ​​the Kresty airfield. Onboard there were 10 paratroopers and three crew members. At an altitude of more than 100 meters, the aircraft engine failed.

Senior Lieutenant Maxim Kabakov correctly assessed the situation, after receiving permission, the aircraft commander successfully performed an emergency landing on an unprepared site. No harm done.

The Ministry of Defense stressed that the commander-in-chief of the Aerospace Forces, for his courage, Senior Lieutenant Maxim Kabakov will be presented for an award.

[YOUR.]

You are more likely to believe what the journalist-victims of the exam have written.

[Ros 56]

Certainly not An-2, one of the two engines and three crew members failed, this is definitely not about him.

[Raven 95]

"One of" is only on the VO website.
In all other respects, the Internet is a quote from the MO message - "The engine thrust is gone."
If the AN-26 flopped down, it would have been long ago with details and photos of eyewitnesses.
Starley - FAC.
10 people for the AN-26 - it will not be enough.
An-26 cannot sit down normally on one engine? Why sit on the unprepared?
I do not claim that I was not personally present, I am just commenting.

[26rus]

According to Vika, the Pskov Airborne Assault Division has a separate air squadron, consisting of An-2 and An-3 aircraft, which are used for training airborne landing of the division's l / s.

[Waterways 672]

In Pskov, paratroopers are dropped mainly from An-2, these aircraft have been based there for a long time. Less often with the Il-76, sometimes from a helicopter, well, this is usually a non-parachute method. They have a platform there near the division, from which it is only a couple of kilometers from the Kislovo training ground, where the paratroopers are being dropped. An-2 from there and take off. There, these An-2s, having barely managed to gain altitude, are already releasing them. All this is clearly visible from the Pskov-Palkino highway.

[YOUR.]

How many jumps from the An-2 did not make, the crew was, as a rule, 3 (three) people - leftist, rightist and uncle on the bench in the middle. The Mi-8, by the way, has the same alignment.

[The leader of the Redskins]

Craftsmanship deserves respect. I think the command will appreciate it.
I'm glad no one was hurt.

[ODERVIT]

Well done pilot, the real commander of the aircraft.
I think this is 334 VTAP.

[Kesha1980]

It is strange that the model of the "light aircraft" was not named.
But it's nice that they sat down whole. Crew - great, everyone - happy birthday!

[impostor]

If one of ... why was not the second used for a regular landing? That's what I would like to hear in the comments from highly respected members of the forum in blue shoulder straps. Although, in Kubinka and Ilyushin everything went wrong ... I would very much like to know at least hypotheses, because we have only one step from “rewarding” to “imprisoning” as from a genius to a madman.

[YOUR.]

The plane in the photo in the ovtae is used only for the transportation of "passengers" in the interests of the command of the Airborne Forces.
So the parachutists did not necessarily have to be on board. Although, for jumping from a great height, there could be them. During the Zapad-2021 exercises, together with the Il-76, it was the An-26 that was used to drop some categories of the Airborne Forces and Aerospace Forces.
For all other "bouncing" categories, the simpler aircraft have more wings, and fewer engines :)
But only the An-26 crashes when the engines fail - the glider is too small, let's say. So if there was one - praise to the crew.

[impostor]

In the Pskov news on the screen saver 76th, although it seems to be about a light-engine aircraft. The MO did not disclose details.

[Alien From]

It's good that everyone is safe !!!!!

[rocket757]

Craftsmanship, lucky ... the main thing is that everyone is safe !!!

[svp67]

Already the "Corners" refuse to fly ... they survived.
AND THE PILOT-GOOD MAN, special thanks to him for saving people and himself

From "our" news ... Well, really! What, they really take everyone for idiots?
At work I work with my hands, my ears are free, - often, in the background, I listen to "Vesti FM" ... Broadcasting grid-MSK-5h ... That is, with a shift for the next day. Often it doesn't matter ..
But, I noticed more than once - the text of the news content depends on the broadcast time! They can (the numbers, units of measurement, individual words in the text of the announcers change, - changing the meaning of the message ...) ...
It's unpleasant ...
If we accept the concept of "information wars", then, IMHO: it's worth thinking about who, for what, against whom is fighting ...
V. Tsoi: "the whole world goes to war against me ..."

[your vsr 66-67]

The type of aircraft is not important, it is important that everyone survived! Well done senior lieutenant, he was not taken aback and saved people's lives!

[YOUR.]

The "author" quickly changed the shoe :)
An-2 is already on the photo :)
Handsome man!
Pesho ischo!

[Ax Matt]

"... due to one engine failure ..."?
But the pilot - a good sport!

[ankir13]

A maize man, a biplane, well, he's a fine fellow, he can fly without an engine, you fucking wrote a military transport plane, where's the news? I planned it and sat down .. Well done ... Pour good kerosene ...

[expert]

Sorry, but actually gasoline ...

[Alexander Seklitsky]

If AN 3 then all the same is kerosene.

[iouris]

"Backward American technology and friendly Soviet staff."
Failed engine "Wright-Cyclone" about 1936. They were also installed on the I-16 ...
Starley, of course, is great. But more fortunate: now there are deep snowdrifts.

[Alexander Seklitsky]

Actually ASh 62 IR. Well, it was created undoubtedly later than the years you describe.

[lvov_aleksey]

this phrase is still alive:
"A military transport aircraft of the Russian Aerospace Forces made an emergency landing on an unprepared site due to the failure of one engine."
p, s, i.e. was there another?

[Vladimir_2U]

There were no losses and very good!

[Kushka]

And thank God. How much else.
During 2021, there were 31 plane crashes in Russia, which became a world record. This is stated in an article on the website of the Military Industrial Courier.
"For 11 months, there were 31 plane crashes - more than 100 people were killed," the message says.

[Kushka]

A very, very long time ago, I saw a TV program with the participation of
ch. designer AN 2. When we reached reliability,
all sorts of cases - he remembered one - the plane was
over mountainous terrain, there is a problem with the engine.
The plane landed on a small ledge. I fixed the gas thrust, with
he also took off.

[Serge-667]

Maxim Kabakov is handsome!
And they say there are no heroes. And they are over there, next to them.

[Alexfly]

YOUNG MAN, senior lieutenant! Maybe the captain will be given for Christmas? Surely not from a petrol car, the engine "shuddered" dead? Special thanks to the deputies in the distant 90s for stopping the production of aviation gasoline ..
