Axum Obelisk Return
I just saw an internet news article that the first part of the Axum Obelisk has been airfreighted from Italy to Ethiopia. Only one photo. Looked like the open nose of an An-124 in the background.
Does anyone have any more info or photos ?

There was an news article on the BBC website, just a shame they used the wrong companies aircraft for the Antonov photograph (VDA!!) when all other pictures clearl show an Antonov Design Burea aircraft.

i landed several times in Axum during the Great Famine Relief. That was in a C130, and an exiting approach and landing that was! Never did it twice wearing the same T-shirt. Must have been one hell of an upgrade of the runway there in order to accept THAT airplane!!!
