Two unknown Antonov

At noon, there was a sand ans spinach Antonov twin at Melsbroek near the turbine test rigs.

At the same time a white top Antonov twin was parged on the apron in the middle of nowhere in front of the old tower.

Serial numbers would be greatly appreciated.

Thks in advance

Cessna fin

Thanks.

As I received yesterday Aviation Museums and Collections of Mainland Europe by Bob Ogden, I have just the same information.

Now, some member could check the airframes stored at Vissenaken to check if one of them lost its fin.
