This is probably my aviation highlight of 2020. I love to cover all these amazing and unique planes and the people behind the operation. They made aviation special! There was a few question why the bus don't drive to Leipzig. The bus is destined to Baku, Azerbaijan. The An-22 plane made a tech stop to refuel in Leipzig as Bremen has a short runway. After refuel, it continue to fly the bus to Baku.
it's pretty awesome also that the airport authority give water salute to the plane.what a amazing moment sam! thanks for giving us more insight about aviation world. keep doing great content.

Mr chug, my brother is an av geek and I’ve shown him a lot of your video posts and he loves them and it cheers both of us up after our sister passed away from cancer so thank you for making us both smile. 🏴🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I have to say that Sam managed to re-ignate my passion for everything aviation related. His genuine passionate interest for aviation transpires in his video. He's showing us many different aspects of aviation, persenting us both the machines and people who operate them. Sam is still like a little kid totally blown up by everything that can fly, and this resonates with so many of us with the same passion. I would like to thank him for that. And keep-up the excellent work you are doing.
Hi, I was curious on why you lost your passion avout aviation... was it because you had some bad experiences in the industry, or maybe you were busy with your life?
Lost in love with this plane! Everything about him is beautiful and perfect! Highlight for the propellers that give an extra charm to an aircraft so beautiful, that despite the years, continue to grace us with its beauty and grandeur!
One aviation legend covering the lives of other aviation legends! Seeing the crew handle such a beast was very interesting! Can't help but feel the pride and passion that the crew had working on this record-breaking aircraft! Thank you Sam for bringing this to us! Really appreciate what you are doing for the aviation industry!
Sam Chui they certainly do, and your passion comes through so much that I’m sure I’m not alone by saying it inspires others to become aviation fans/geeks. Keep up the amazing work you are doing and sharing these breathtaking experiences with us. Take care and stay safe!

Russia and Ukraine is not the same thing and shouldn't be used interchangeably. The aircraft is Ukrainian as well as the crew. The blue and yellow flags in and on the aircraft along with the blue and yellow shoulder patches worn by the crew exemplifies this fact.
Pchudo88 I am aware of the difference. I would never confuse either country with the other. I said Russia/Ukraine because these are by and large Soviet era aircraft, and things get complicated with that era of history I know it is a Ukrainian company (Antonov), but the Russians have those blue cockpits as well. I actually said Russia/Ukraine to denote they are different countries, not lump them together.

@Vlad cccp you are just a liar, and stupid. My farther worked at Antonov’s plant for many years and he never called himself as Russian. As well as his coworkers.
Those guys are the professional truck drivers of the skies! What a team! And what a majestic aircraft! Heats off to all of you guys! Awesome art Noah! Your drawing became a piece of history now!
That aircraft is insane, it really has more a ship vibe than an aircraft vibe, with all the crew members working on board like that and the cranes in the cargo area ...
47 years of old of Antonov and still very powerfull. Safety , Security is the most important aspect here that is why all the personnel operating the aircraft are mainly senior and experienced, qualified personnel in its field.
What an awesome aircraft, I was lucky to hear it fly over my home twice in the last month, you can hear the roar even minutes later! I really hope it continues to fly more than these 100 hours...
Got to love the Antonov cargo aircraft. They just look born to carry massive loads. What a lovely touch with that painting of Noah's. Thanks for sharing this.

EVERYTHING is so Soviet in this ariplane, including the crew, I mean, come on! All these is like the quintessential Soviet machine. Lovely airplane and a great crew, that captain's the kind you want in that cockpit. Thank you!
The quality of this video is absolutely insane. I just have to commend you for your dedication to documenting aviation! It truly is a gift to get such a detailed and in-depth tour of an exotic aircraft like this one. The AN-22 is one of my personal favourites. Thank you so much!!

TU-95, TU-114 also use similar engine and propeller configurations, so I think these planes would sound similar. No mistaking a contra-rotating turboprop, though!
Two huge guys holding onto the two yokes - flying this aircraft is a cooperative effort with the other deck crew. After 47 years it's heading to the museum. What a shame !
I heard this plane passing over our place several times this year, at night. It has such a distinct roar that you just cannot mistake it with anything else!
where is that? Near Leipzig? We still have many Antonov 12 cargo planes operating in Europe, and I can often hear them fly over. Sometimes there are An26 that have loud propellers, too.
Este es un documento filmico historico ,creo que el avion ya no existe, al parecer no hay más y es muy dificil desde el punto de vista costo/ beneficio ,construir otra obra maestra de la ingenieria como esta máquina voladora,autentica leyenda.

Who doesn't love a Soviet era aircraft? There is something so unique about them, I especially love their green cockpits

I didn’t hear about that. Rip
never heard such thing
Yes mistake of people cost 26 lives...
I heard this plane passing over our place several times this year, at night. It has such a distinct roar that you just cannot mistake it with anything else!
where is that? Near Leipzig? We still have many Antonov 12 cargo planes operating in Europe, and I can often hear them fly over. Sometimes there are An26 that have loud propellers, too.
This is CRAZY. Most amazing video till now. Hands down.
Este es un documento filmico historico ,creo que el avion ya no existe, al parecer no hay más y es muy dificil desde el punto de vista costo/ beneficio ,construir otra obra maestra de la ingenieria como esta máquina voladora,autentica leyenda.
Brilliant - Loved every minute of this. However that must be some kind of special bus to warrant this kind of service and so many personnel's time.
That’s once in a life time experience Sam, really impressive ❤️
I turn 49 in a couple of days it pissed me off how everything is younger than me, even this thing!
