A visitor from Brazil posted Tue August 16, 2011: A visitor from Canada said it! Indeed, the word is "ruggedness", not just the Antonov, but also other Russian aircraft. In some cases looks like a submarine with wings, really. It reminds the ship #2, from the TV show Thunderbirds, in the 60s. ;-) 5*

A visitor from - posted Fri August 29, 2008: Those 20 foot diameter propellers suggest that the An-22 is also a wide body aircraft (possibly the first to enter service).
A visitor from - posted Fri August 29, 2008: The An-22 is the star of this spotlight. Also, there appears to be several more An-22s in the background, correct me if I'm wrong.
