Antonov 124, AN 124 Departs Perth Airport

[@sfoaviation]

This is an amazing rare capture well done!!!

Very nice. Those D18-T engines can be described as a little temperamental. Notice every AN124 departure they request at least five minutes in the lineup position. This allows them to very slowly increase to take off power. At higher thrust settings they do have a very unique sound to them. Basically they are Soviet copies of the very early generation RB211-524g engines. Three spool.
