Russia’s Antonov An-225 built in 1988; the only one in the world, is still 20 years later, the World’s Biggest aircraft weighing all up 1.4 million pounds. It’s 276 ft long with a fuselage some 60 wide, to say it’s really Big is an understatement. It can carry 250 tons of cargo, almost twice the tonnage of the US’s biggest plane the Galaxy.

Thanks John,

John sent us an up date on the Antonov An-225 Mriya… there’s a second on the way, if either one of these aircraft come to Sydney I’ll do my best to go have a look.
