From Andy's suggestion in thread on the Russian invasion of Heathrow, here's a few cubs to start off with.
I think was some time in late 2003.Typically clean An-12. Heli-Air, LZ-CBG, An-12BP getting airborne off runway 28 at Dublin.

Re: Smoking Permitted
I think that first one will take some matching, as for needing a clean - Well!

Re: Smoking Permitted
Andy, never understood why they insisted on painting the An-12s white, anyone who can remember the Balkan cubs know that a clean one was nearly as rare as hens teeth.
