This helicopter was produced in 1976 in Kumertau (Russia) as the 9th airframe of the 56th batch. She was entered on the Aircraft Register of Hungary on the 7th 01. 1977, she started her career as a crop duster helicopter in the fleet of MÉM RSz and remained there until the early '90s. After the company ceased, MNW was sold to a private owner and continued the agricultural job with two other Ka-26, HA-MRK and later HA-MZH. She worked basically in Fejér and Békés county, lots of mosquito killing flight was performed by this Kamov near lake Velencei and the surrounding settlements. After the active years, she was grounded after 2010, but in 2015 she was sold again and started to fly with a new company. Nowadays she can be found near lake Balaton, and she's doing walnut spraying primarily.

Kamov Ka-26 is a multi-purpose, light helicopter, invented by N.I. Kamov in the middle of the 1960s. First flight of this type was in August 18, 1965, she was mainly used for training flights, agricultural tasks, passenger transport, cargo transport, pipe inspection and also for traffic controll by the State Automobile Inspectorate (GAI). This type has two Vedeneyev M14-V-26 petrol powered, four stroke radial engines with 9 cyl. and 325 hp each. Due to the relatively low airspeed of the helicopter, to maintain the proper cylinder head and oil temperatures the engines were produced with an iron fan, which makes the unique siren sound, and it is often believed that Ka-26 is driven by gas turbines. Thanks to the co-axial main rotor system this type is extremely benign, the vast majority of pilots loves and loved it to fly.
Agricultural versions had pressurized cockpit, where the pressure was made by that "nose" on the front of the canopy, which is called separator. This thing pumped outside air through a carbon filter into the pilots cabin providing clean air.
