Default Russian Antonov transport taking off
Looks like the runway might need to be extended.The two aircraft traffic controllers are very funny.

Similar thing happened at YSRI in Nov 06

" The vodka burner is rollin'.. "

" We have Smirnoff! "


Funny stuff that!! ...but in all seriousness, that must have been metres from the edge of the runway!


Thanks for the post Craig!
