Any shot of that beauty is incredible. I remember still being able to make out her distinctive noise despite being inside a 733, engines running and people talking all around me. Superb aircraft 😀

Looks great, shame the weather was so bad but still a great photo.

I didnt see it anywhere at MAN, though I did see a Balkan TU154 🙂

Worth getting wet for…….

Here’s the Beast itself – An22 UR-09307 on approach to 24R at Manchester.

Sorry about the quality, but the light was pretty poor – as you can tell by the lights on the aircraft.

The pouring rain didn’t help much, either. 🙁
