This photograph captures the majestic presence of an Antonov An-12BP (registration number 2105, 4342105) from the 1 SMDLP (1st Squadron of the CzechAir Force) at the 1993 Royal International Air Tattoo held at RAF Fairford in the United Kingdom. The event, which took place from the 21st to the 27th of July 1993, was a celebration of aviation and brought together aircraft from various military and civilian organizations across the globe. The Antonov An-12BP, also known by its NATO reporting name "Cub," is a versatile military transport aircraft that was first introduced in the late 1950s. This particular aircraft, operated by the CzechAir Force, is a modified version of the An-12, featuring improved avionics and increased payload capacity. The image, taken by renowned aviation photographer Peter Butt, showcases the An-12BP in all its glory as it taxis along the runway at RAF Fairford. The aircraft's distinctive design, with its high wings and large propellers, is a testament to the engineering prowess of its Ukrainian manufacturers, Antonov. The An-12BP's participation in the Royal International Air Tattoo provided a unique opportunity for aviation enthusiasts to witness this impressive aircraft up close and learn about its capabilities. This photograph, brought to you by Mary Evans Prints Online, is a treasure trove of aeronautical history and a must-have for any aviation enthusiast's collection. With its rich details and stunning composition, it is a reminder of the thrill and excitement that comes with experiencing the world of flight.
