The Antonov An-2 is a 1947 biplane that refuses to die. It technically has no stall speed — it just mushes along.
Fun fact
The An-2 has no listed stall speed in its flight manual because it can fly so slowly it essentially parachutes.
How to spot one
Giant biplane! Largest single-engine biplane ever mass-produced. Cannot stall — it parachutes down.
Crews call it
The Colt
