638 ANTONOV An-iftA UKRAINA (FMH> Wclfwfco AMI turboprop*) Span ... ... ...... 124ft 7in Length ... 121ft 3in Oleg K. Antonov prepared his An-10 transport four years ago at his design bureau in Kief.

It went into service on the Moscow - Kiev route last July after pro- tracted route-proving trials; it is now in ser- vice on routes from Moscow to Lvov, Syktyvkar and various Crimean centres, and from Leningrad to Kharkov and Novosibirsk to Alma Ata.
