Since leaving the production line in March 1984, this An-2 has mainly been working in Lithuania. Initially as CCCP-17944 for the local Aeroflot division, followed by a few years with the air force in the mid-nineties, amidst various corporate jobs. Moved to the UK in 2010 to act as a 'Soviet' warbird and eventually registered in Poland in April 2015 to the biodiversity foundation operating a park in Belgium. Seen at various European airfields in 2022. The registration, also seen on the engine cover, is behind the wing from this angle.
