An Antonov An-124 Ruslan flew into the STL this week. It is the world’s heaviest gross weight production cargo airplane, second heaviest operating cargo aircraft and remains the largest military transport aircraft in service. Some airports even require pavement protection from the heat and blast effects of the plane.
