World’s largest cargo plane destroyed in Russian attack

by Jayna Smith

One and a half years ago, in August 2020, we shared details of the world’s largest plane — the Antonov An-225 — that had landed at Bangor International Airport (BIA).  

On Monday, Feb. 28 Ukrainian authorities reported that the plane had been destroyed in a Russian attack on an airport near Kyiv.  The company that managed the Antonov An-225 said it will take five years and more than $3 billion to rebuild.
