Antonov O K - Pioneer of Russian Aviation

The multifaceted Antonov O K is a pioneer of Russian Aviation. Antonov is interested in aviation since his childhood and spent most of his time making paper gliders.  His painting skills came handy in designing aircrafts.

He designed 52 Gliders and 22 airplane types and he is the man behind Guinness record holder AN 225.

Antonov was born on February, 1906. In 2006 for his 100th Anniversary, Russia post issued a miniature sheet with his picture and the aircraft designed by him. I got these through a private swap from Olga of Russia.  Thanks Olga.
