Appreciation thread for the largest airplane in the world

It's the Antonov 225.
This beast is an engineering marvel and it's unbelievable it's still flying with the outdated technology on board. The russians sure built it to last.
Size comparisions....

You would have to pay me a good amount of money to fly on that thing.

I think it was for the transport of their space program components. It was also built in the 80's so it isn't that old

Each tire cost approx $1000 USD and have to be changed every 10 or so cycles. You can also fit a 737 fuselage in the cargo hold.

Nice. Thanks for posting. I honestly was under the impression that that the A380 was the biggest plane flying.

Totally bad-arse, I thought the Spruce Goose was the biggest plane.

Here. I still get a kick out of how laughably unrealistic this scene is.
Lew, it's Russian.

That's what I'm saying. That plane is Russian and it looks every bit of Russian.
