Loading The An-124

Volga Dnepr An-124 loading & chaining down a 70 metre boom concrete pump to go to the Fukishima nuclear plant.

 

Looks like a few spare Antonov wheels are stacked both sides of the fuselage.

Thanks Willie, I find that sort of loading and rigging fascinating, there wasn't much room to spare there!

A lot of chains rattling about there, a bit like loading a dozer on a lowloader. I've often wondered about the effect on the a/c handling with the variety of loads. I guess every load would be like flying a different aircraft, with weights, dimension & centre of gravity etc.

Cheers, Willie.
