==Development== The An-28 is similar to the An-14 in many aspects, including its wing structure and twin [[rudder]]s, but features an expanded [[fuselage]] and [[turboprop]] engines, in place of the An-14's [[Reciprocating engine|piston engines]]. The An-28 first flew as a modified An-14 in 1969. The next preproduction model did not fly until 1975. In passenger carrying configuration, accommodation was provided for up to 15 people, in addition to the two-man crew.<ref name=obs>Green, W. 1976. ''The Observer's Book of Aircraft''. (25th ed.) Frederick Warne & Co. pp. 254. {{ISBN|0-7232-1553-7}}</ref> Production was transferred to PZL-Mielec in 1978. The first Polish-built aircraft did not fly until 1984. The An-28 finally received its Soviet type certificate in 1986.
