That is somewhat of an amazing magic trick. I believe a magician on TV once disappeared a Lear Jet, but five AN-124s in one go. That’s astounding
😱👍👍👏🏻👏🏻👋👋

I believe photos exist of Heavylift AN-124s
Hope it helps.

When I worked for them we used them as freighters too. Best aeroplane for carrying AOG engines around and all sorts of other things. They were hardly ever at base.

I flew on the Air Foyle IL76 on it's first ad-hoc charter, DUB to LTN but diverted to EMA due to fog. Great machine, great crews, great experience.
