Day 116/19. Red Workhorse.

The Antonov An-2 is a Soviet mass-produced single-engine biplane utility/agricultural aircraft designed and manufactured by the Antonov Design Bureau beginning in 1946. Its remarkable durability, high lifting power, and ability to take off and land from poor runways have given it a long service life. Over 18,000 were produced from 1947-2001. Many are still in use worldwide.
This one is in the Ukranian National Aviation Museum, located next to Zhulyany Airport in Kiev, Ukraine. The museum is one of the larger aviation museums in the world displaying Soviet technology. See extra image today.
