The World's Heaviest Plane: The Story Of The An-225

The Antonov An-225 was the heaviest and longest operational aircraft in the world. It was built during the 1980s to serve a specific purpose within the USSR space program, but has gone on to serve a niche role carrying the heaviest of payloads. Sadly, almost a year ago, the giant aircraft was destroyed during an attack on Hostomel Airport, where the 'Mriya' was parked.
