Famous Flier Antonov AN-2 - First Look Review! - MSFS 

at 4:34, the personnel door opens with the cargo door because it's propping the cargo door up. If you look outside you can see there's a rod connected to the personnel door that rests on the side of the fuselage

I flew on board of one back in my days. I was just a couple years old and there was no lavatory, so the passengers had to suffer for a while because of me 😂

Your videos guide my purchases 100% + your voice is sooooo the right voice for piloting 😊👌

Always a favourite of mine at airshows. It's almost surreal to see the monster biplane lumbering through the air after all the fast jets.

One of my all time favorites. Actually was able to get pictures in an old Iraqi Air Force one years back. Only complaint I have would be when you use a controller the cursor wants to latch to the visor when you're trying to adjust the throttle in the stock view.

I totally love your videos "AA" please don't change the way you do things! I find you to be funny, entertaining, as well as educational, and serious! I love your style, if someone does not like it, they don't have to watch!😮😅😮❤

This plane has character and utilitarian fare. I love the 1000 Radial and all the nuances getting the thing up and flying. Asobo really needs to address said issue with the liveries. I like the slow lumbering pace with the massive windows and open cockpit. That little windshield wiper only on one pane of the window it’s somewhat cute. All in all a nice addition to the classics. Thanks for taking the time once again I will rush to your reviews because they’re fair.

Thanks for the review, this looks nice and worthy of my money so I shall purchase.

You have to click and hold and drag the starter switch left and right to get it to stay lol. It's super not obvious, but I figured it out by accident. Good ol' inertial starter. Drag the switch left to energize the flywheel for ~10 seconds and then right to engage the starter and crank it over. Also if you watch the startup from outside it smokes for a while before the exhaust cleans up. It's really well done. Oh and the An-2 has no known stall speed. If the engine dies you just go full aft stick and it floats down "like a parachute".

Thank you Rachel for another admirable presentation! Kukuruz in Russian and in other Slavic languages means maize, or corn. The suffix "nik" describes in general a relation between something (corn in our case) and our airplane. It is similar to the suffix "er" in English (ex: to wander - the wanderer). So, if you want, it can be like "the corner, or the cornist", or "the (amazing) mazer".😍

In case no one has mentioned it before I think the prop is backwards. Russian radials turn counterclockwise when viewed from the cockpit and therefore need left rudder to counteract p factor.

I believe this is the same type of aircraft that flew from Cuba to Florida to escape from Cuba

Great quality, really good to fly

Lovely aircraft

The brakes are on system that you can only use once and it’s modelled

That stick on the yoke is the wheel brake. Many soviet planes and fighter jets have that. The jets usually have a pinky lever for the brakes

The discount in the marketplace was meant as a "give back to premium/deluxe"-buyers, as explained yesterday in the dev twitch stream. Thanks for the video. As for the starter, apparently you need to hold it left to spool up the flywheel, then chop it right to make the engine disengage the clutch and make the engine run. I was told it was realistic... would love to have that gimmick on certain ww2 fighters as well ;) Thanks for the video!

Took me a minute to find the water rudder too. Being on the yoke is an odd place for it, but it works. The plane definitely likes to skip in an odd way.

When opening the cargo door, the smaller door is used as a prop rod :P

Great plane, bought one.

Currently, with a 33% discount, it is £8.39 in the marketplace. An almost bizarre price for what you get - the bargain of the year.

Simply Luvv this Aeroplane , however I musn't purchase right now since I just spent a few quid on the Honeycomb TH Quadrant but in the future I shall consider it.

Looks very complete... maybe the best famous flyer so far?

One of the loudest aircraft I ever had the displeasure of flying in.

You forgot to check it out in the dark AvA! Looks pretty neat at night.

Avangel has an attack of get there itis lol 😂

There's a big pneumatic valve wheel on the left panel that is turned on for plane to start. It hisses when you activate.

Great Soviet plane, Kukuruznik ;)

I have to stop watching your videos from time to time because you just make me want to buy basically everything you review :D

I had the pleasure of flying in one of these (HA-MKF) so have been looking forward to a decent one on MSFS, i got mine today. I have Honeycomb throttles but for some reason I cannot get the prop lever to function, the mixture and throttle work as intended. May I ask what binding did you use for the prop lever?

I wonder if you fly into a strong enough head wind, that you can do that flying backwards trick.

now thats a plane with Character. and any landing you walk away from is a good landing.... so what's Cliff ever done to you ? lol.... so too much Rushing in the capt. Slow of aircraft... love your humour have fun

They was used as Drones in the Armenian / Azerbaijan war by Azerbaijan . They flew them out on take off and then bailed out over friendly territory and one plane behind acted as the drone control plane . Loaded with explosives they could be flow into targets or just used to expend expensive SAM missiles from the Armenian side . Once they Armenia ran out of SAM missiles the Fighters would roll in and bomb the air defences . It was quite effective and it's rumoured the Russians might try the same against Ukraine . I have been waiting for this addon as it looks amazing , it's so ugly it's beautiful . And i expect fun to fly , thanks for the great review 🙂

While I absolutely love this aircraft both in real life (having flown in one whilst at an air race in portugal) as well as in the sim, It does seem to suffer from asobo-isms a bit. I think they ought to focus more on the base game mechanics before dumping a ton of money into other modules. It seems as if they are lacking in certain areas such as engine modelling, and tailwheel physics. It would also be nice to see fully fledged manuals with performance sheets as well as other things. It is still heaps of fun to fly though, Almost comically so. Also it seems as if they paid attention to the comically loud pneumatic brakes that are so loud in the real aircraft. even while I was up front.

I'm so glad Asobo is first with this before the money-gougers like Aerosoft etc get in on it!

B-but what about the most important question? Does the little fan in the cockpit work? :o

Kukuruznik)))) Unfortunately in gps version, keyboard input of icao codes not working, but overall its amazing!!!

Does it have an autopilot?

I guess the reason for the discount is that you already bought the AN-225 . I see the discount as well and it says something about the "package". Can someone check this who didn't buy the 225?

Coo coo ruz nik

at 9:00 it's on sale because those with deluxe or premium get it at a discount. Standard edition folks get it at $15. not sure why

Any autopilot?

If you are going to review an aircraft it would be helpful if you could learn something about it first?

The plane is ok, would give it a 3 or 2.5 out of 5 stars review I cannot read russian

SLAVA UKRAINE....... Enjoyed thank you

The real aircraft is very, very noicy. Even a DC-2 is moderate compared to this. The sound coming with this model is fare from the origianl. There are quite some live videos of the AN-2 on RU-vid

I really wish you'd familiarize yourself with the plane before making a video, or at least use the in-game checklists. Your videos would then be useful how-to references instead of a wasting my time watching you flounder around in complete ignorance of how the plane works.
