Antonov 124-100 from Antonov Airlines (UR-82073) Short Take Off at Alicante Elche Airport ALC 8-10-2016 Visit my blog: www.javrullan.es/en/Welcome.html www.javrullan.es/es/Bienvenida...
I happened to be watching flight radar 24 a week or so ago and saw a plane on the ground at Doncaster airport (yorkshire, england - my local airport). It was an antonov 124 freighter. I couldnt believe my luck when it took off and headed my way. I watched it in real life as it climbed in view at the back of my house. Awesome. Then 10 minutes later a 747 freighter took off and flew the same climb path! Talk about luck, Doncaster airport famously only has about 10 commercial flights a day!
Steve spark two days ago I was driving I looked up and saw a huge contrail so I looked closer and I decided that it had to be bigger than an a380 so I looked at flight radar and this was it.
TBH seeing it takeoff at my local airport was the most coolest takeoff I've ever seen I couldn't believe how big she is , as a person on the autism spectrum and having a passion for aviation is a gift
@@user-tx3vc5fp5d , of the 55 total An-124, 45 fly in Russia, of the 55 built, 33 of which are built in Ulyanovsk (Russia), 17 in Kiev ( Ukrainian SSR), only 7 cars are considered to be Ukrainian by Antonov, who DO not have a job in Ukraine and do not fly there.
I was in traverse city, Michigan last weekend and saw an odd contrail in the sky. Pulled up Flightradar24 and it was one of these making a flight from Hawaii to Montreal. Very cool to see, the only Antonov I have seen in person. Awesome video!
Great footage, Javier - I was so excited to find this excellent takeoff video! I was lucky enough to see one of UR-82073's sister aircraft (UR-82029) at close range at Malaga airport in December 2016, and managed to get a great photo as we taxied past for our takeoff. Considering what a heavy aircraft it is, the 124-100 is exceptionally elegant and this Antonov livery is very attractive. Subscribed - thanks for posting!
Hola Javier! Fue fantástico verlo en tan buena (y experta) compañía, gracias por el magnífico video, ahora podemos disfrutarlo un poco más!! Nos vemos "cazando monstruos"...
Jajaja, que va la banda sonora infantil le da mas ambiente, fue un placer pasar ese rato con todos , lo pasamos genial viendo a la bestia despegar y mas en tan poco espacio. Espero que volvamos a vernos pronto, un abrazo.
It was one of Oleg Antonov goals to build the planes that can take off after short runs. He even had his "pet project" for several decades - a plane for 3, then 5, then 7, then 11 passengers that takes off almost instantly. There were even several prototypes that had flights across the USSR, but they never got to mass production.
4:02 Is it a video encoding issue or are the engines wavering? (I am pretty sure the rear rudder does due to side wind, but it would surprise me if the engines were mounted that flexibly.) If they do, I'd assume it is because of the unusual forces on them due to the landed position. Turbulences, resistances, no fast longitudinal air flow that stabilizes. Or is it subtle heat waver between camera and plane?
These engines require 5 minutes of run up (to warm them up) before take off in several steps. Here you can see the last step of this procedure when engine's thrust is approx 70% and the whole airplane is shaking/waving due to high thrust rate.
How many do they manufacture annually? Is there demand for such a big aircraft? Where do the Ukranians export these planes? Very big and nice aircraft.
There are about 60 An-124. About 20 were built in Kiev (Antonov serial plant), 20 at AVIASTAR-SP in Ulyanovsk, Russia and 20 at TAPOich in Tashkent, Uzbekistan. Kiev and Ulyanovsk still do maintenance work on them. Production ended somewhere in the 90's but they had plans to resume, but after Russia and Ukraine got beef, production stalled. Both sides own important knowledge and won't share it with each. They attempted to modernize the existing aircraft. But this progress is also very slow. They didn't really export them, only 2-3 went to some carrier in Lybia back then. But you can rent them. Even NATO forces rent them to transport stuff.
hola javier ,lo primero enorabuena por tus videos que son geniales,como te enteras de este tipo de cosas?es decir de donde sacas la informacion cuando viene un avion como este?me gustaria poder ir yo tambien a grabar este.tipo de videos y sobre todo ver estas maravillas gracias
Gracias, no me gusta dar consejos , pero puedes buscar asociaciones de Spotter o reunete con amigos aficionados a la aeronautica, apuntate al twiter de tu aeropuerto , pasa horas en tu aeropuerto , utiliza el FR, escucha el trafico ATC,etc, cualquier medio es bueno para conseguir informacion luego tendras que desplazarte , buscar un lugar apropiado y filmar tu video...
@@saudalomari3519 It's actually both. Some of the Ukrainian Antonovs were built at AVIASTAR-SP and some Russian Antonovs at Gostomel and/or Tashkent. Tashkent had also the biggest aircraft plant in Asia, so many prototypes and serial aircraft of Antonov, Tupolev, Ilyushin and Sukhoi were built there.
Gracias, utilizo una Panasonic Lumix FZ1000 y un tripode Manfrotto en este video puedes ver el equipo: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bkLHcHL0Wgk.html
@@JavierRullanRuano Bet they're Chinese. No joke,they have a pretty good tire industry! The ones everyone here in ,the states bitch about are the cheap ones we put on semi's because they are cheap! They make some high end stuff that parelli can't touch. Would assume they have cashed in on aircraft tires. You know it's gotta be lucrative!
@@JavierRullanRuano The tyres are from Michelin, I think. But the gear construction itself was developed at the Antonov branch in Novosibirsk back in the day.
@@thebravegallade731 can be. i couldn't check it out right then and there, and my photos of it came out very small, so i will never know for sure. it was majestic anyway.
@@andij605 we can't know cause the entire fleet of 124s AND the 225 are doing the same medical supply runs. Probably stopping at incheon as a pit stop.
I had flown it as a cargo man. It is taking off and flys like a sport plane. It is overwhelmingly powerful and the navigating crews are well trained. Great performance records. This plane had been designed in the Ukrainian SSR, but it has the livery of the Ukrainian national colors, yellow and blue
.. i think in its cargo-room there is really giant space for transporting PEACE ...even it's white-scheme like a giant SWAN ... :) lets have all of us more kind peace feeling .. ! friendly greets
