  1. When I started this post I was not expecting this much info on the AN-2 Thanks everyone for the info it is fun to know more about the bird I go up in every jump. Not many people know much about it.
  2. Good stuff I am far from swooping the pond but will post the crashes as soon as I get them
  3. The long ride give lots of time for shit talking and messin with the tandom students.
  4. I will take your word for it. Pete Rose had it down but I don't think he tried from 10000+ft. Im not up for perfecting it.
  5. Looks like alot of water ahead did you make it to solid ground?
  6. You just have to keep your hands out of the way. You learn that quick playing baseball.
  7. Nice colors. We have two at our DZ the other is camo I will try to find a good picture of it.
  8. I am out in Helsinki on and off. How often do you jump the DC-3? Is your DZ open all winter?
  9. Czechloslovakia?? dose this country still exist
  10. Here are two more shots of the bird. As well as our pickup car for those out landings
  11. I need to find out the name of our lovely lady
  12. Nice video you all got balls of steal. (girls included)
  13. I was told by a few pilots that in california there is only one air worthy AN-2 and it is in a museum. I'm not 100%sure on this though
  14. Every morning you have to wind the prop. It is great to see the tandom students watching with open mouths (What the f#&k are they doing)
  15. As I said slow. An-2P - One 745kW (1000hp) PZL Kalisz ASz61IR nine cylinder radial engine driving an AW2 four blade variable pitch propeller. Y5B - One 735kW (986hp) PZL Kalisz ASz61IR16 or Zhuzhou HS5 nine cylinder radial engine.
  16. Thanks for the link I have been trying to find that info.
  17. Thats what it is. I have a better shot of the AN-2 on the ground I will post as soon as I can find it
  18. I don't know if this has any relevance, but I am going to speak from the side of the one being filmed/photographed. I am a ski model and work for many clothing companies and magazines. When I am asked to go on a photo shoot I expect to be paid my usual daily rate. When I offer to go on a shoot I am giving my services to the photographer on grounds that if the photo gets published I get photo credit as the athlete and if I need the picture I can use it as I need.
  19. We jump this amazing (slow) bird out here in southern Sweden. Is there any other DZ's jumping them? Post some shots if you got them.
  20. I think a new thread is in order for this amazing bird
