Well… I’ve seen about twenty of ‘em, at various locations around the world. Go to an airport often and your chances increase significantly!

[@SC9750-r3w]

@@pjotrtje0NL You're absolutely right. I mistook it for the Antonov An-225 Mriya which was recently destroyed in Putin's war in Ukraine. On second thought there really is no comparison.

0:46 a take off so shallow it’ll make the A340-300 envious! WAIT: is Canada not boycotting Russian aircraft on their soil?
