Notes:
Actually, this aircraft has very interesting story. So it wasn't regular flight to Tashkent airport, it came out two hours before coming to airport. We took a taxi and waited for departure with my friend Imran Khamraev cause we knew we could not catch its approach. Later on, after waiting for 4 hours in cloudy weather, sun appeared and ER-BAR got pushed back. It was holding on taxiway for 15 minutes without reason and at very last minute turned on its beacons. It was most likely not so loaded because it rotated at half of runway which is unusual for 747 freighters. And now the most interesting part. As you can see, right wing has some kind of wave. As soon as I saw it I said that it is leaking fuel. We were discussing for a long time with team and had two opinions. It was whether actual fuel leak or condensation as some people said. Luckily for aircraft, it landed safely at its destination Delhi. I am still curious was it fuel leak or no. Very interesting story.
