Winged Stories. Big Plans
by Sashko Dermanskyi (Author), Nataliia Oliinyk (Illustrator)
Description
Airplanes, just like children, are sometimes afraid of new things, not always confident in their abilities, but thirsty for adventure and discovery and always ready to make real friends. These stories were created in cooperation with Antonov State Enterprise, which designed the Mriia and Ruslan aircrafts known all over the world.
"I have big plans for you," said the Engineer to the airplane, which was a little different from the others and a little worried about it. The story is about the incredible adventures of the AN-2 airplane, which, thanks to its special wing design, could take off and land even where there were no prepared airfields. To extinguish forest fires? Land on the water? Take photos and videos? What else did the restless Engineer come up with for the very brave airplane?
For five years now, the Antei giant has been flying only in a dream. One day he woke up to the fact that mechanics were scurrying around him like restless ants and conducting an inspection. What does this mean? Is he going to return to the sky soon? The Chief Engineer has an important task for the experienced Antei - to transport an extremely important cargo to Africa.
