Wirelessantena,. .. .Where did you get your figures from? Most AN-2 sites agree that some 5,000 A2s were built in Russia between 1948-1960 when licences were granted to Mielec in Poland, who have since built nearly 12,000. Licences were also granted to China, who have been building it as the Yunshuji 5 or Y-5. The highest estimate I can find of completed airframes is 20,000.. . . . <small>[ 22 March 2002, 07:23: Message edited by: newswatcher ]</small>
