An-26 Vs An-32

my dear flogger, here it is a pic of an ex-peruvian air force An-26 and the An-32 FAP, the fuselage is the same, but notice the lolcation of the engines (above the wings on the An-32 due to the bigger 5180hp Ivchenko Ai-20)
a friend of mine from high school became flight engineer on the An-32, he told me he fall in love with the 32 after his first flight, he was standing behind the F/E (just looking and attached to nothing) the A/C rotated after 600 meters and put something like 45 degrees of nose up (i’ve seen them regularly doing that 😮 ), he (my friend) ended up like a tumbling dice all the way back to the ramp in the back, all beaten and full of bruces…but deeply in love 😉 , i couldnt stop laughing just to imagine that, he was also laughing and said “what a performance” 😀
it made me wish i was there 😎

the mist is normal on every airliner (russian, american, chineese or wherever they come from) it occurs when your packs are running and the outside wether is very hot and humid, due to the exess humidity in the air exeeding the capacity of the water separators, seen a lot on A-310 and specially A-330, canadian summer is pretty hot and humid for example 😉
so nothing to worry about. 😀

yes an officer is dead, my condolences to all
the other 2 seamen are ok, good news.
now to the point…
i wonder why Canada is spending 1 billion dollars in 4 used…(to stay polite) subs ???
couldnt Canada afford new Scorpenes or type 214’s??? latin american coutrys can, but the G7 member mighty economy Canada cant?

ça pue la moufette mes amis (smells like squonk my friends)
but the politicians are talking again about raising their salaries (that i bet will pass ok very fast :dev2: )

shame on them 😡
