Spotted this Antonov An-225 (the only one of its kind!) taxiing out from across the ramp in Calgary today (or apron, as the Canucks called it). It can only be described as stupid huge. For reference, that van is probably a few hundred feet away from the airplane in the foreground. Its tailspan alone was astounding.
