AeroRanger Studios & HistoryDawg Productions based in the state of Arkansas, USA has compiled some of the best footage of the Antonov AN-225 from Instagram, Facebook and YouTube for a Tribute Video and Salute to the world's largest airplane that was lost and destroyed just three days after the Russian invasion of February 24th, 2022.
The Mriya, which means "Dream" or "Inspiration" was one of a kind from the old Soviet Union Space Program that was abandoned by Russia after the fall of the Soviet Union. The Antonov AN-225 Lay in mothball storage awaiting to be scrapped when she was brought back to life by Ukraine.
She became the most photographed airplane in the world and dubbed THE KING OF THE SKIES. Mriya was the largest flying machine ever made by man.
Her first flight was on December 21st, 1988, and her last flight was on February 5th, 2022. She landed at her home base at Gostomel International Airport (GML), also known as Antonov Airport, for routine engine maintenance. She was unable to fly away as the Russians invaded.
The Antonov Research & Development Center & Administration Building were also destroyed along with about a Century of Aeronautical Research from some of the most brilliant minds in Aeronautical Engineering who are now passed away. This STUPID attack by the Russians has assured that the Russians will NEVER EVER catch up to America or the west in Aviation. It was the equivalent of destroying Boeing and Lockheed in America. STUPID! STUPID! STUPID!
Nevertheless, Ukraine's Pride & Joy, the KING OF THE SKY, adored by all Aviation Lovers around the world has been lost. This video tribute is a collection of some of the best clips found on Social Media. All footage appearing in this video is credited to it's rightful owner.
Rest In Peace Mriya! Спочивай з миром Мрія!
