While I would love to see one 'in the flesh' I'm not traipsing all the way to Shannon to see it.

A line must be drawn somewhere  ;D

Thanks for the heads up-bit of a bummer regarding the times-night vision required. :(

This departed IAH for BGR just over half an hour ago , 1hr 50 behind schedule, so it may be into the wee small hours before it arrives in SNN.  :(

I was going by the last schedule dated 9 Apr on the Antonov An-225 Mriya Facebook page - when I look now it still has departure time from IAH at 0700 UTC  ::) But that's one of the advantages of a site like NIAE - keeping everyone in the loop re: schedule changes - thanks Don  :)
