An-22 is landing on unpaved runway

About

In December 2016 AN-22 Antei (UR 09307) transport aircraft of "Antonov Airlines" fulfilled the program of cargoes transportation from Europe to the Republic of Mali. As a total, 39 flights of 141 hours were performed, 246 tonnes of cargo were carried. At that, the aircraft landed seven times at unpaved runway of Gao airport, Mali. None of other aircraft able to be based at strips of such quality, including the AN-12, C-130, Il-76, would not be able to carry more cargo compared to the An-22. The Customer appreciated transport capabilities of the AN-22 and intended to continue this operation in January 2017.
