Re: Plane Spotters Corner
The Worlds only and largest ever plane, the Antonov 225 "Mriya" has been destroyed in a fire in the Ukraine during the ongoing war between Ukraine and Russia.
Sadly it was there for maintenance and could not fly out.
This aircraft has not only been used to shift some of the worlds largest cargo including other planes, trams, etc, but also for humanitarian aid delivering much needed supplies.
Another step backwards for the world of aviation.
I saw this beast of a plane land at East Midlands Airport and it is awesome.
NOTE: I am ofcourse aware that lives are much more important than a plane and some may say it doesnt matter about the plane, but still, it is a shame its gone.
