Antonov An-124 Ruslan (UR-82027)

Will Antonov give another name to this great bird?

Great pic of the Antonov John.......

Only seen one of these - about 25 years ago at Oshkosh.

Where is Doug Irvin? is he OK? he hasn't complained about multiple images of the same awesome aircraft yet. Someone should check to see if he is alright.

Good comment, Roger Tune.

This bears Ukrainian colors. While working on the Atlas V program our boosters were delivered by Russian owned AN-124 cargo carriers. I was pleased to visit all parts of the plane. Twin 10 ton bridge cranes run the length of the interior. Truly a giant plane.

Oh no! A second photo of the same plane in the same week!
(LOL!) Did not want y’all to be disappointed.
