Antonov An-2 is available

[Matchstick 1,902]

To go with SU12 release the long awaited AT Simulations AN-2 is FINALLY available.

Features 4 versions, wheeled, float and ski versions with old school cockpit and wheeled version with GPS.

First impressions are good - excellent visuals, not seeing many INOP switches, working circuit breakers on the GPS Avionics panel.

GPS version only has a single livery but I imagine that will change quickly enough - cockpits are labelled in Russian as well as you'd expect so if you aren't familar with that you will be relying on tool-tips at least in the short term plus the instruments are m/km based.

This is I believe Alex Metzger’s finest FDE work and something I have been awaiting for a very long time. The Anuschka is the most beautiful ugly aeroplane I’ve ever experienced. Can’t wait to fly SP-AMN YoYo! Hurry please!

Excellent news ! Been waiting for this big boy to hit MSFS for a very loooooooooong time. AT did an excellent job with the Piaggio P.149, I do hope the An-2 will also meet expectations.

Pity it is not available direct from the Devs 😕   

Cheers,

Inertia wheel and clutch starter ?

Yeah looks to be, though I think I have some kind of control mapping conflict and I can't get the switch to hold in the energise flywheel position right now

 

Looks like this may be a bug as I can't identify a control conflict and someone else is reporting the same issue.

Oooh this is Metzger's work?  It's a slow plane but I might have to splurge haha.

Ryan-

Yes- it’s his FDE and if anything like what exists in FSX and P3D it will be absolutely superb. I spent many weeks exploring the PNW-

I was wrong about the starter switches  not working - you need to drag and hold them left and right rather clicking on them.

It's the most fun engine to start in MSFS since the B247

I'm expecting we'll see English language cockpit and imperial gauge mods pretty quickly

Loved this aircraft so much in FSX I just had to buy the Win10 version for FSX-SE when I went to Win10, since it's original release wasn't Win10 compatible.  Count me in!

It's definitively the RL AC that goes with my member title "unusually low and slow".  Can't wait to hop in it's VR cockpit (once the SU12 update completes).

I have to admit it's a little less slow than I was expecting. Cruising around 2000ft at 110-120kts is perfect for me

Practical for shorter jobs in FSE as well.
