Cracking selection of types on show there - which is sadly a rare thing now.

More nice catches, Taff :thumb:
Hadn't seen a RoKAF An-2 before. Apparently they have around 10 based just to the South at Seongmu?
Are they to counter the threat of the 'stealth' Colts from the North'?! :cool:

When I was at Kunsan during an exercise an An-2 flew over sounded like a John Deere tractor. Nice catch

Didn't know they had An-2s - specialist in dark arts no doubt.
