Re: Antonov 124 Kidderminster 2012

Can you recall the direction headed, and estimate of height ? First thoughts were proximity of Birmingham or East Midlands. Here in London, I have seen An124's below 18,000' heading for Brize Norton 70 miles away. Had a look in old LAAS mags, nothing for 15th Dec but East Midlands had several An124 ...

Northwest DC3 at Gatwick

Taken at Gatwick 26th June 1986. G-AMPY of Air Atlantique painted as NW21711 Northwest AL. It must have been to do with 60 years since NWA was founded.

Re: A brace of An.12s and a few others, Stansted 19-1-2018

Nice set as normal, Andy. :clap:

Made me think how times have changed. For years, I had only seen a handful of An12. Now, for an old aircraft, they are such regular visitors, yet the "newer" jets Tupolev and Ilyushin have virtually disappeared. Funny old world.
