AN 225 @ HHN ( Frankfurt - Hahn )
Edit: split from this one.
she looks fantastic great paintjob
But looking at the pictures,especialy number 5
with the cranes(i'm a mobile crane driver) this generater looks really heavy.
the cranes are a 300 ton terex and the other a 400 ton liebherr.
The way they stand and using there hooks it look to me the generator weights about 200 tons!!!
also looking at the picture it looks like theres something standing on the platform
something like
Anto(nov) world(record?)
somebody knows more about this?
greetings Ton

Re: AN 225 @ HHN ( Frankfurt - Hahn )
Someone posted a picture at Flugzeugforum of this generator. The label said it weighs some 176 tonnes. So the An-225 was the only option for airlifting...
It even was a new world record for the heaviest single-piece cargo to be airlifted.

Michel

You don't need to say that the AN-225 arrived later then expected. Since that is standard procedure with this beast.

Depends on the wind, but i think 3200m is quite normal.Derice wrote:With that weight, how much runway did it use on take off?
