Lisunov Li-2

Someone left this unsigned comment: "which image? This should be made clear with caption" in the first paragraph reference to the 4-bladed propellers in the Li-2 image. That photo was low-quality, but it showed the 4-bladed props. The photo was since replaced by a better illustration (not a photo) that doesn't show the props clearly. Does anyone have an image that shows 4-bladed props, top turret, and bomb racks? I deleted the unsigned comment since it no longer applies. Hoserjoe 06:05, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Present days

AFAIK there are only 2 airworthy planes left, one of them was restaurated by a Hungarian foundation (Goldtimer):

The site contains color photos of the plane flying over the city of Budapest.

[edit] video of the Li-2 on Live Video

I have posted a video of the Li-2 on Live Video since it seems such a rara avis in the west this footage was startling.
