Dora 9,
Yes, a lovely aircraft. A little bit cramped but not too uncomfortable, even after three hour legs. I must confess, as we were chugging westwards into the wind, on the way home over the unending landscapes of North Dakota and Montana, to wishing I was in something 100 kts faster!
It is the "twitchiest" tail dragger I have ever flown. You have to be lightning-fast on the rudder pedals during the takeoff and landing rolls.

That's an early Antonov ?AN-25? - mid - 1930's - but I don't think that the airfield is in the USSR from the vast number of cars in the background................ and the trees suggest W Europe or N America?? Sounds unlikely
Sounds unlikely.
Than are dreamt of in your philosophy.
Moscow to San Francisco (nearly) - over the Pole:

Nothing to post so Open House
Primary wind direction from the north?
There's a lot of rubber at the south end of the runway.

Primary wind direction is from THE SOUTH - but then you need to see the view the other way........................ not one I'd care to overshoot the threshold by very much.....................
