AN-2 only takes about 12 pax, but it's been EVERYWHERE and done EVERYTHING.

When I was in Korea ('89-'91), they had signs with an image of the AN-2, and a directive (in both Korean and English) to call police if you saw one. The ROKs were afraid of them, and rightly so. They were mostly wood framed, had cloth wing/fuselage covering, and the biggest chunk of metal was the engine. That, and the flew low enough to be hidden from Radar amongst the hills. The Norks supposedly had them in droves.
