Most likely candidates:

UPS 763F N320UP
Lufthansa MD11F D-ALCS

Not guaranteed but they were overnighters.

Cheers.

Great shots for the conditions. I left home at 4 to witness the departure as well. Amazing how quiet it was for its size.

Still managed to get back to MAN in time to see the Garuda / MyTravel hybrid 330 depart as well.

Can anyone from EMA identify the UPS 763F and Lufthansa M11F that departed around 6?

EDIT: Looking at the AirFoyle website there is lots of good information on the 225 including some corporate PowerPoint files: http://www.airfoyle.co.uk/services/an225.asp?tab=aircraft

Hi,

I reckon 1800 – 2000m at rotation.
Cheers.

Absolutely Stunning, such an unusual wing shape as well
