Antonov AN-124 due this evening

Yet another Antonov AN-124 is due into Brisbane this evening. The AN-124 belonging to Antonov Design Bureau, registration UR-82008, is due in at 1825 from Diosdado Macapagal Int'l (Clark, Philippines). Most of the recent Antonov movements stay a couple of days and then depart at around 0630 to Darwin.

This is the 11th Antonov AN-124 to visit Brisbane since October. They appear to be regular movement now occuring every two weeks (give or take a couple of days). The eleven AN-124 visits have comprised of five operated by Volga Dnepr (RA-82074 x2, RA-82078, RA-82043 and RA-82042) and six operated by Antonov Design Bureau (UR-82008 x4, UR-82072 and UR-82009).

Hopefully we will continue to get AN-124's on a regular basis, they are a fantastic looking aircraft!
