One of the biggest planes in the world was spotted taking off from East Midlands Airport (EMA) this week. The Antonov An-124 Ruslan was seen flying over Derby last night (December 27).
It took off around 7pm, according to flighttracker24. The cargo plane is a regular visitor to the airport. After leaving EMA, the plane flew north west to Ireland and headed onwards to the US.
Derbyshire Live reports the plane's final destination was unknown as it has no registration. Those who spotted the aircraft over the East Midlands say they were impressed.
