New world record for the AN-225
The Mriya landed yesterday at the Hahn airport (Germany) to carry an Alstom generator of 190t.
This generator is the heaviest indivisible piece of hardware ever transported by air and shows again the superiority of the AN-225 in heavy loads transports. This piece will be use in an Armenian gas factory. In total six travels will be necessary, the first four was accomplished by AN-124 (lighter version) and the last two will be by the Mriya.

This is a beautiful paint scheme and quite a departure from Antonov’s usual conservative paint work! They always look great anyhow, but this is really fantastic! I hope to see some of the 124′s eventually get the same treatment.
