Yup, it's big

this stopped in at the airport today.

Couldn't get a good shot of it.

Makes a GIV look like a Bonanza.

Seems they keep it working.

"that's what she said"?

With a sarcastic giggle.

[Skylane81E]

Yes, it is

 

[poadeleted21]

Yes, it is

I found it funny the questions people were asking about it.

"how much does is carry?"

"Is it bigger than an 747?"

My thoughts were "I'm glad I'm not the one paying for that guy to fill it up"

They parked in an odd spot, I'm not sure if I have access to that area, it appears to be on the military area of the ramp, so I didn't attempt to walk over and check it out and had to snap the photo from a distance. BUT, I can only imagine that someone at Signature or Sheltair was smiling when they saw it taxiing off the runway.

AN-124. Saw it at Long Beach.

And what's amazing is that it's a mere baby next to its big brother, the AN-225.

Well I wouldn't go that far. The 124 and the 225 share the same fuselage. The 225 just has a wing root extension with an extra engine on each wing, plus the twin tail. Oh and there are the fuselage extensions to make it longer.

Okay, nevermind, it's bigger. It just didn't seem that much bigger since the interior dimensions (other than length) are the same.
