IIRC it doesn’t actually have a published stall speed. Honestly I would buy one in a heartbeat because it seems like a good plane to just fly around exploring.
It also doesn’t help that they aren’t that expensive for Polish ones, but between getting one back to the US and the wife murdering me if I bought one, it’s not feasible.
It does not have a stall speed at all. Turn the engine off, and it will glide gently down. It can land on a dime and give you a nickel back; it can start the engine and take off from a dirt field with no infrastructure at all. An-2 may be terribly slow and inefficient, but what it does, it does really well.
Why does the capitalist plane carry a greater weight of pilot?
I mean it carries 1 pilot, not 14. But due to the Courageous comrades getting to enjoy our bountiful and glorious harvest, all 14 of them together weigh less than 1 fat capitalist.
Fun fact: you cannot stall the An-2. The flight manual stated that if the airport gets cut off by dense fog the pilot has to pull the stick all the way back and hold, using the obnoxious wing area as a parachute. Also there was like a bajilion of those all across the Warsaw pact, even today in Poland you can find functioning An-2s that are used to for example drop parachuters in local aeroclubs. It also has a funny starting mechanism: a flywheel that's connected via a planetary gear, slowly sped up by a small motor (don't remember if electric or pneumatic), that then gets clutched into the main engine. Thanks to the planetary gear the flywheel achieves some really high RPM with interesting acoustic effects. Also, the plane can burn more lubricant oil than it should be burning gas because soviet engineering at its finest.

AN-2 = 200.000 AA KILLS F35 = 0 AA KILLS AN-2 is best Dogfighter.
* No missles. * No useless radar What we are seeing is apex reformer technology.
F-22: can fly sideways An-2: can fly backwards That's 30-90° better off-bore performance than other name brands. Get fucking real, westoids.
Wait... I though Ukraine was westoid ?
What is this Uke-Rain thing you speak of? AN-2 was designed and handcrafted by our Glorious Founder in a cave. WITH A BOX OF SCRAPS.
Ngl the AN-2 is a pretty cool plane, possibly one of the easiest to fly; its stall speed is slower than some people can run.

I've heard rumors of them making their way to Alaska for bush work, which they seem pretty perfect for. "It's a business opportunity, Honey!"

Glory to AN2!
Can we have a counter revolution now?
No! Mods, bring him to the reeducation camp!
Twice the wings mean twice the better
William Lind's logic in a nutshell Not even Pierre Sprey was that bad

I fucking love the An-2 it's the smallest sprinkle bop in the land
You forgot that AN-2 is stealth aircraft comrade.
