My first catch of an Antonov AN12! After waiting for hours in Mumbai's brutal afternoon heat, I finally saw her rotating off Runway 27. I had never seen an aircraft produce so much smoke before. I still remember the loud and screechy sound of her props as she flew over me. I was able to click only 3 photos of this aircraft with my digicam. One was unfocused, one was blurry and luckily this one was sharp. I was really happy that day. :)

I went for plane spotting after months, and the first thing I got to see was this beauty! Yemen Airways usually operates its A320 to Mumbai, but luckily on this day they sent their Airbus A310
