Notes:

[Full HD/1920px] Aviation-wise, the perfect Christmas gift to me was to finally be able to capture a decent airside night shot of an Antonov An-12 starting-up, clear of all the airfield paraphernalia around. 53 year-old Antonov An-12BP UR-CKM is seen firing up its engines after roughly 2 hours on the ground for refuelling, on its cargo charter mission between Glasgow Prestwick (PIK/EGPK) and Abidjan (ABJ/DIAP), via Porto and Gran Canaria (LPA/GCLP) as CVK7056. You can clearly spot a fire blaze coming out from engine #4!
