Thanks for the link. Yes it would be nice to see some of the larger stuff coming back in again. I stood for 15mins and counted 1 plane…no good!

At the moment the largest regular flights involve A330 a/c. However the airport used to handle regular B747 and An124. Hopefully the AN124 will become a regular vistor with Shorts building the Wings for the new C series a/c.

Full operational data available here shows that the runway 07/25 length should be sufficient for any current type though certain aircraft such as the A380 or An-225 would probably have problems negotiating the taxiways….

747s … it has had Airforce One on several occasions. And presumably the C5 Galaxy(s) that ferry Marine One and the Limos around too.
