AN-26 plane... Hmmmm. Manufactured in Ukraine.

I would guess Russia is having a difficult time keeping up with routine maintenance and acquiring parts.

Better idea, show up to work, fly the airplane to Ukraine and donate it to the Ukrainian war effort. They are all going to die in the war against Ukraine anyways, why not make a choice for something else?
