RA-82045 Antonov An-124-100 Volga Dnepr Airlines MAN 03MAY95
Replacing an earlier scanned photo with a better version 24-Apr-24. Slightly blurred. Photo was taken from the 7th floor of the control tower block. Sadly I couldn't move the building to the right, that's why there is a lighting gantry covering part of the nose!
First flown in 1991, this aircraft was delivered to Volga Dnepr Airlines as CCCP-82045 in Apr-92. It was re-registered RA-82045 in Jan-93 after the break up of the old Soviet Union.
The aircraft was withdrawn from use and stored at Leipzig, Germany, in Jan-19. It was noted still stored at Leipzig at the end of Oct-21 with only one engine.
