Sorry, didnt take any of the actual approach, but I took a few after we landed...

Ooooh, soo many countries parked together!

Antonov An-225 taking off from the parallel runway...

A sister plane that had already disembarked her passengers and crew.

A United 737 coming in for landing overhead as we picked up our ride at the rental place!

I'd sure like to see an AN-225! I think the AN-124s are pretty regular visitors to East Midlands Airport (Nottingham East Midlands sounds stupid) so maybe I should find out when the next arrival will be!

Yes, I beleive there is; and that one in the shot is probably the AN-124...look closely and you can only make out 4 engines instead of the six on the 225....but still...both are enormous aircraft Wink
