PF,
Thank you so much.
The AN-24 was manufactured in big numbers in each of : Irkutsk, Ulan Ude, and Kiev, all factories within the former U.S.S.R. Please demonstrate your undoubted knowledge and enlighten us as to which of the above are in Russia. (clue...Kiev is in the Ukraine). Now the AN-26, that was a Ukraine-assembled product, for what its worth. But hey......
I was actually having a pop at the C.A.A., chap. But thanks for offering yourself as an additional target. (Not being overly serious..no offence given here).
