Here are some of the poor old Antonov that just sits there as lonely as can be on the ramp. Every once in awhile she'll lose some more of her skin or some more air from a tire. :(

Very sad indeed to see the aircraft in that way. But your photographs are excellent, I like the first one the best.

Good shots of it. Too bad it's just wasting away.

Actually, good news. A guy bought it and is planning on restoring it. It's moved to the south side of the airport now. I'll get some more pics sometime.
