That's one type which doesn't visit the UK much now... when it used to frequently i think?

It's all An124s now.

I'll try to post a picture later tonight - have a few appointments to take care of first. I'll gladly send the Zitrotrans IL-76TD over your way if you in turn send some AN-124s over here - haven't seen one in ages now. It's all IL-76s nowadays here.

EDIT: Just posted a few pictures of the today's IL
