I’m hearing some rumours that the Antonov 225 is due this weekend?

Thank you for posting photos of a real aeroplane, i.e. one with lots of character!

I took a photo, but my camera only has an 18x zoom

The biggest lens I have only has a 10x zoom. 😉

Tony, shame the first one is so heat hazed but the second is very nice indeed! As already said, a great catch. I can’t believe how long that thing is!

Thank you both for your kind comments, EGTC considering the height it would be at you can both tell what it is and who it belongs to, no bad feat in itself, so well done 🙂

Did that DC8 come in during the afternoon?
I only ask because one came over me in MK yesterday, I got quite excited as I havent seen one in 15yrs. I took a pic but it was fairly high at the time.

Yes it did, it then departed about 5:30 PM

Here you go 🙂

Looking in fine condition too with some well polished cowlings

That was posted here a while back. Not heard anything of it since.
I hope someone can confirm if it is or not.
