AN-22 at Zurich

Hi, paid a visit to Zurich last weekend. The highlight of the trip was the AN-22 but unfortunately it was dark when it departed

here's a link to a photo which appeared on one of the An.225 facebook pages which is rather nice showing a different angle of it...

Lovely photographs. One of the top of my must see wishlist.
If I remember right, an An-22 visited Farnborough, midweek 1988, with a spare engine for something.
Heard and missed it because of cloud. Hope for another day.
