Volga Dnepr Antonov An-124-100 Landing
RARE: Volga Dnepr Antonov An-124-100 Landing RWY 05 @ Toronto Pearson Int’l March 29, 2016Hello everyone! Here is another awesome rare catch! This morning, I woke at 0700 hrs local to find that VDA2083 had filed a flight plan to CYYZ. This was the Volga Dnepr Antonov An-124-100 from KSEA, RA-82078. I was quite excited about this aircraft, 1) I haven’t seen a Volga Dnepr Antonov since February of 2015 and 2) I missed the last Volga Dnepr in February of 2016 but this one was the exact same aircraft and registration so I didn’t miss out on much at all. It’s arrival time was scheduled to be at 1652 hrs local but it got changed to 1817 hrs local due to a delay at KSEA. Fine by me since I headed out 2 hours after school. No homework was a bonus and the light was phenomenal. And sure enough, we all got the RWY 05 landing followed by a race to Cargo West where he was parking at Gate 509! Super close up! But he took Hotel 3 and went straight to Echo and then to Echo Bravo instead of going to RWY 15L and taxiing there so he was already taxied in by the time we got there. But nevertheless, it was worth it as usual, another awesome Antonov catch! Thanks for watching everyone, Enjoy and I’ll see you in the next video!
