Antonov Design Bureau AN124-100

Its not that often that an aircraft the size of this visits Auckland, but when it does, everyone takes note, and it's not easy too miss.

Antonov Design Bureau's Antonov AN124-100 UR-82073 arrived into Auckland late on the evening of the 30th Oct from Ohakea and spent the night before departing Auckland, as seen here in these pics on the 31st October in the late afternoon.

Sorry for lots of photos, but it's not everyday I get to take photos of the massive aircraft..
