Antonov An-225 Mriya Worlds Largest Cargo Airplane at Airshow by Konstantin Khmelik

[MrTobiaspbm]

stupid they dont fly passengars

[engineblock1]

Aircraft designers never cease to surprise me and rest of the mankind

[bombarderoazul]

Antonov is an Ukrainian company, but they lack the industrial capacity to produce these type of aircraft on their own in that country, and many of antonovs factories and assembly plants are in Nobosibirsk(Russia) and Tashkent(Uzbekistan). So it's incorrect to say this plane is Ukranian, it's more correct to say that it's a soviet aircraft and the company was inherited by the ukraine after the collapse of the soviet union.

[JurekOK]

it's a Russian designed airplane on an airshow in Ukraine. Does it matter where the airplane happens to be registered at the time of filming (Ukraine?)

[Nosferatu295]

this is pure engin Power ;)

[Andwrightrocks]

but iits propbably a night mare to replace all those tires

[Andwrightrocks]

Nice plane 

[braden418]

Awesome color scheme

[TriadAgone]

Wow, pretty good roll rate for such a huge aircraft. I've flown sub 1000lb a/c with slower roll rates

[MetalJuggler]

DO A LOOP!

[The747Captain]

5 dislikers are airbus

[TheFrequentFlyer2]

It's Ukrainian, not Russian flightlevel350! Ukraine and Russia are two different countries. Get it right!

[guitarplayerforu]

the cokpit windows look like one off a boeing 747! hey everyone has to copy the best hey!

[lucius1397]

@guitarplayerforu the only thing is that boeing 747 is something completely other than this giant and it took much more complex structure plans to design something 2x bigger. The constructers were short of time so they made the easiest design they could and the cockpit one was already designed to the jumbo:D

[sampsalol]

@guitarplayerforu It also has wings in common with the 747, must be copied from the 747, right?

Go back to school buddy.

[cimex101]

Superb video! Glad you didn't ruin it with music like so many others

[blckcloud15253]

I saw this in Canada once while I was in a parking lot cold not believe my eyes when it flew over head at under 1000' feet very impressive machine. I would love to fly in the co-pilot seat during a landing.. Awesome Video !!!!

[Jimmy4manutd7ronaldo]

theres my private jet

[VieuxMalcommode]

EXCELLENT video!!!

[cc92103]

The head-on view reminds me of a hippo....

[The96GuitarFreak]

BARREL ROLL!!! BARREL ROLL!!! DO A BARREL ROLL!!!

[james87340]

I like new colur an225

[tj47racer]

I have never seen that sucker fly with a gear down

[NBrando1]

It's nice, isn't it?

[DreamSubber]

I was the 225th like (an225) on this vid

[linkiny]

@DreamSubber get a life ...

[Theairplaneguy4ever]

this scares me

[MeTube473]

think about those engines on a Volks Wagon Bug

[JuaniBA30]

people's heads blocking vision makes me goes beserk....kill the cameraman

[engineblock1]

Such a short run for takeoff :o

[jugo]

ummmm..... it's ukrainian not russian 

[bob46472]

I've seen one of these up close these make the C-5 galaxy look like a compact car. It's absolutely massive.

[RePete02]

When it can carry that much cargo in one lift, it's worth the fuel. Certainly it could, in the future, be fitted with more efficient engines but as it is, the ones in service seem to be busy.

[HamdiBalta]

This is old technology. Check gas consumption of this plane.

[spdfrkus]

What a Beast of an Airplane.

[Sweeta020]

He just pops a wheelie while landing, nice

[Trevo711]

poor mans a340

[jbcd1211]

Love the way when it touches down there's a huge puff of smoke for every wheel set (and that's quite a lot!) Awesome video!

[hamham500]

The only good russian planes are by Antonov. The rest are rubbish!

[ematom1]

amazing video, amazing aircraft, what a video :)

[o0bananaman0o]

the empennage looks like it would generate a third to a half of the lift of the wings

[heisserreifen]

Klasse Video!!



[CMRLV]

Love it !

[samyk20]

5:50-6:50 seems like flexing muscle for the photographers.......What an awesome creation.....Amazing show

[DetEJagDe]

Mmmmmmmonster!

[PeetPeeet]

@EatMyPropwash What, 300 metric tonnes of airplane soaring through the air is ugly? I think it's pretty awesome, personally. If you put down your xenophobia for a minute, you might see that some of the european & former-soviet designed aircraft are actually pretty spectacular.

[EatMyPropwash]

@PeetPeeet No, that particular plane is fuglier than the craps I take in the morning. I actually prefer to fly a bigger plane compared to a smaller one like a CRJ or EMB-175. That being said... what exactly do you do for a living? I'll bet you're a wanna-be pilot, who can't pass his medical, doesn't fly, works at McDonalds, and sits on YouTube all day touching himself to russian aircrafts. You probably blow a load when you hear the TNT inside the Tupolev TU-154 explode to start the engine.

[PeetPeeet]

@EatMyPropwash I'm actually an aircraft hydraulic system design engineer, former aircraft mechanic and private pilot. (third class medical, to be precise) Ironically, one of my projects at work is the Russian Irkut MC-21 airliner :) To me, an aircraft like AN-225, Airbus A380, or even the PZL M-15 Belphegor are all beautiful, not because of what they look like but what they can do! Seems as though you're too preoccupied with your prejudices and immature judgement to appreciate good engineering.

[PeetPeeet]

@EatMyPropwash Moreover - I doubt that YOU are actually a pilot, based on your rhetoric I would guess you're an angsty teen vicariously pretending, as your comments are very unbecoming of any sort of professional aviator. Hell, maybe you're a CFI flying C150s, I could be wrong.

[strontklont]

its amazing how it stays in the air. look at a how fricking huge that thing is man :P

[CharlyRomeo2009]

I want one!!!

[drumbasher]

Love it, great job.

[inselvideo]

Nice Video!

[ghostrider0749]

airbuses for lunch,a fuel storage tank for drink~

[hbk01fans]

Antonov is Ukranian and Sukhoï is Russian !

[JuliusEC145]

@racingracing didn't wanna insult you.

[lovewow59]

Imagine the sound if it wears 6 GE-90 ! :-)

Amazing plane !

[TripleZ89]

Did anyone notice super quick banks and turns this HUGE plane is doing?! THAT to me is amazing. It's also cool when the C5 Galaxies and C-17s do it. BUT this is more amazing... I mean THAT SIZE... WOW.

[pakthoven]

Wow!!!

[bjten27]

This plane is Ukrainian, not Russian.

[Snafu320]

@EatMyPropwash Why do aeroplanes from Airbus worry you? Clearly you know nothing!

[EatMyPropwash]

@Snafu320 Yeah, I know nothing. I have more time flying than you do awake, son. Stop talking while you're ahead.

[Snafu320]

@EatMyPropwash Just be quiet. You clearly know nothing about Airbus and obviously brand it as unsafe as it's not American.

[Snafu320]

@Snafu320 Oh and Antonov isn't a Russian company.

[WeggerAS]

Awesome video !

[MyEmpire91]

one word: huge.

[JuliusEC145]

all right. but doesn't come the Antonov from the former UdSSR, and doesn't come the B747 from the USA. How can those be friends ?! :D

[racingracing]

@JuliusEC145 .... Airplanes are creature with amazing powers of knowing-ness and out-of-this-world understanding. And thus, they understand. They know without having to prove it, unlike us needed-ego-based humans. Airplanes are Whole, Perfect, Strong, Powerful, Loving, and Harmonious ▲

[PERIZ99]

Wow..What a beautiful machine..

[Wonkabar007]

Would make an awesome Decepticon Transformer.

[777Plox]

Lots of tire smoke! Love it!

[matthew1320]

nice !!

[HamburgAirport]

i bet this video gets millions of clicks...

[Florehh]

awe.

[Hakuto0505]

wow great video!!

[parkbodyslam]

BIG!!!!!

[deanow2007]

Feck, that would burn fuel!

Amount of wheels on that landing gear!

[PersianvBTheme]

The front side ( exterior of cockpit ) is like Boeing 747.

[MrBryan86]

Nice!!

[snowgirl1052]

I love that badass plane! I wonder how much it costs to fill it up with gas. It must be a thrill to fly it.

[hessen211]

Great !!!!

[all4golf]

Wow, what a landing.

[ThRiddleD]

wiow

[gonetoworkbbackin5mi]

What is operation cost on this beast?

[jasleil]

Too bad that this aircraft wasn't able to fulfill another job that it was to do, carry the the Russian space shuttle. Russia cancel their space shuttle program after one test flight that's it. Sad. Oh well, at least it's hualling cargoes around the world. I think this aircraft would be a perfect "companion" for the Boeing LCF.

[KARUKAZAMI]

wow totally that big airplane cargo....!!!

[racingracing]

This thing eats airbuses for lunch ☼

[oneofthemdeals]

@racingracing A380s to be specific?....LOL

[JuliusEC145]

@racingracing boeings as well ;)

[racingracing]

@JuliusEC145 ...the Antonov 225 and the Boeing 747 are pals...♥

[JuliusEC145]

@racingracing what are pals ? :D

[Jurgik]

@racingracing nomnomnom



[racingracing]

@Jurgik конечно

[phatcarz]

@racingracing breakfast ,lunch and dinner

[proteanview]

Serious landing gear

[GaCCow]

Most badass looking plane when seen from the front!

[MrMegaFredzeppelin]

"TOTALLY AWESOME JET"!!!!!!

[koolkeith1985]

@MrMegaFredzeppelin Whoa, did u see how many wheels it had?!

[draoi99]

I love this plane, I wish they would make more of them.

[luiestum]

Cool plane amazing such a large thing could stay in the sky but the Russians or I mean Ukrainians had good engineers and aircraft designers at Antonov.

[heil08]

nice 

[techguy3000]

Wow!

[geegang]

I wish i can see this airplane at DFW! BTW What a sexy big takeoff!

[AirlinePilotStuart]

@geegang

Me too.
