U.S.A. An-26 operator?

Question: why are the USA highlighted in the map of military operators, although they are not listed below, in the table. Either they operate it, or not, I'm sorry have no time to figure this out now for myself. 145.99.170.201 18:32, 12 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The 6th Special Operations Squandron Operate the An-26 at Hurlburt AB, Florida See link below:

Mountains near Bluefields, Nicaragua?

There simply are no mountains near Bluefields, Nicaragua. This aircraft crashed because it got too low and hit a tree on approach to a flyby. They knew the field was closed due to atmospheric conditions and had been told to divert to Corn Island but decided to look for themselves. See El Nuevo Diario article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.102.203.45 (talk) 16:09, 25 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Crash near Lima on 17th Dec. 2012

There is a crash missing. On 17th Dec. 2012 an AN-26 crashed near Lima after both engine failed due to icing. For details please see in 'The Aviation Herald': http://www.avherald.com/h?article=45ab2c8c/0000&opt=0 Zugerbueb (talk) 18:21, 7 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Crash site in Tunisia

The site is roughly 40 km away from Tunis Airport, and not 60! Yes, Nianu (Near Grombalia) is 60 km far from Tunis Airport.. by road! not by air! The plane does not follow the roads, so, 40 km! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 197.1.183.129 (talk • contribs) 9:59, 28 February 2014‎

The source says 60km, so that is what we should report unless there is a different source that confirms your information. GB fan 20:16, 28 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Also Peru?

Have seen a Peruvian Military one, I think. Tried and failed to upload a picture 138.84.59.249 (talk) 01:00, 29 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Peru certainly has operated An-32s. Could that be what you have seen?Nigel Ish (talk) 01:30, 29 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Merge proposal: Utair Flight 9706

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.

The result of this discussion was: merge Utair Flight 9706 into Antonov An-26#2020s. (non-admin closure) Aviationwikiflight (talk) 14:47, 28 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I propose merging Utair Flight 9706 into an entry at Antonov An-26 § 2020s. This is because the incident appears low-key, emphasised by bad weather as the likely cause and no fatalities. I cannot find anything that stands out in the incident, in contrast to Alaska Airlines Flight 2059. --Minoa (talk) 13:31, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support – Per nom. Per WP:NOTNEWS, failure of WP:CONTINUEDCOVERAGE and WP:INDEPTH. Aviationwikiflight (talk) 09:27, 22 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support — A common type of accident, no fatalities. Alex Hoe (talk) 20:13, 24 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom. Run-of-the-mill incident, no inherent notability per WP:EVENTCRIT #4. Rosbif73 (talk) 06:41, 26 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
