'Soviet industrial exhibition.' The construction number is below the door. According to the Soviet Transports Data Files, airframe never registered. Taken on charge by Aeroflot at Kremenchuk in February 1961 but relegated to ground instructional airframe in June 1961. Apparently Russian helicopters made some flights in Oslo in June 1960. This matter was discussed in Norwegian parliament on 9 June 1961. Do you have more information? Photo from: Norsk Folkemuseum

Only 111 examples plus prototypes were built of the Ka-18 helicopter. This is the fifth series aircraft which, between 1959 and 1961, was registered as CCCP-64570 with Aeroflot's Moscow AG SPiVS (Aviation Group for Special Purposes and Aerial Photography), which presumably accounts for the very nice quality of this photo. To CCCP-06136 and -64570 but airframe already struck off charge in July 1963 as worn out.
