| Description |
c/n 00340209. NATO codename:- Cock The An-22 was the first Soviet 'wide-body' aircraft, and remains the worlds largest ever turboprop powered aircraft. The type first flew in 1965 and a total of 68 were built. They have been extremely rare visitors to the UK, including a spectacular arrival at the 1988 Farnborough Airshow (bringing in a spare engine for an An-124), and a sole aircraft operated by the Antonov Design Bureau has made occasional visits to Stansted, East Midlands and recently to Manchester. The Stansted one came over my (then) home in Ipswich and the noise and vibration were unbelievable! This An-22 first flew in 1970 and during it's career was one of the aircraft that flew MiG-25RBV fighters to Egypt. It was retired after a heavy landing at Addis Ababa in 1987, although it was repaired enough to allow it to fly to Monino, where it joined the museum. On display at the Central Air Force museum, Monino, Moscow Oblast, Russia. 27th August 2017 |
