you really only understand the size of the plane when that guy connects some wire to it at about 2:41 :D then think about how big a 747 or an A380 is

@DragracingX : It's a ground power cable, so they can shut down the engines and don't have to start the APU. APU usage at EFHK is restricted only to unavoidable situations; In my experience, usually APUs are started around 5 min before push-back. :)

[tommiph]

This one was shot with the Casio EX-F1. Currently I use a 5D Mark II with 24-105mm, 50mm, 55-200mm and a 400mm lens.

MD-11 for life.

@paice95 Did I say so? I also mentioned the fuel consumption. MD-11 was a flop and that's a pity

[paice95]

@Scandinavian92

they aren't older than 757's, 767's, A330's or A340's which still fly.

even the centre landing gear's lined up

[jokutypy63]

oh my gosh! hufge pal

[Scandinavian92]

@m4yflower Because of high fuel consumption, and they're quite old =/ Finnair has saved 2 MD-11's and now they're flying for Finnair Cargo

[m4yflower]

That airplane looks so great! :) Why doesn't Finnair use those MD-11 planes anymore? :(
