    Antonov's are awesome. Nice photos above too!

    Based on your photos, I would have to guess you work at Swift Aviation in Phoneix.

    Anybody else see the "GA Tacoma Owners" thread and click it thinking it is General Aviation? I've fallen for it multiple times. Damn you Georgia!

    I have been on, worked on & have my name (on the aircraft records) at least one of the aircraft in your pics. :thumbsup:

    And the flip side is I've used GA and had people think I met Georgia. :p

    The AN 124 flies into Moffett Field to pick up satellites for delivery to various launch sites. On final, you would swear that a) it's too low and b) it's going so slow it'll fall out of the sky. Oh, and it's incredibly loud :)
