Belfast International Airport / Re: AN-124 movements
Last post by angry turnip - Apr 04, 2024, 05:05 PM
That`s the second one recently.
As I mentioned last time the An-124`s are classed as " blocked " by some trackers, which of course is going to make them tricky to see.

It was Antonov An-124 Ruslan UR-82008 as ADB3707 headed NW after departure.

Arrived 1115 03/04/2024--I have created a thread to show it.

Same aircraft was in 27th March.

I just noticed on FR24 a AN-124 has just departed BFS heading NW. Nobody said about its arrival?

Yeah, that would make more sense, but the HEX code AE58A7 is correct for B-52H 61-0018.
I thought it was odd there was just one showing.

After some digging I found it was two US P8`s 168856 and 169002

Apparently it was a US P-8 not a B-52

UPDATE on AN-124 UR-82008

After a bit of digging I found it arrived BFS 1228 on 25th March from BCN.
It seems that the details of An-124 flights are now blocked on some trackers.

Allegedly due to the fact that the majority of the world's "bush" planes are Russian.
