Antonov should have taken up on the offer made by Leipzig airport and stored the 225 there before the war began. Although a new one is in the works, the original UR-82060 was such a unique piece of aviation history having broken several word records as well as being the biggest aircraft in the skies. There is still a high chance of the project for the new one being cancelled as the world heads into a recession the likes the world has never been seen before...and no it isn't because of Russias illegal war - but because of big banks and institutions borrowing too much money and robbing more from us people.

How I long for the days when people used to fill out all the correct paperwork to ensure their war was legal eh? Knowing you'd be shot or bombed legally made you feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
