February 14 - Ruslan International has carried a power station rotor from Kuwait to Singapore using one of the 17 Antonov AN-124 freighter aircraft under its management.
Loading and unloading of the rotor, which weighed 99 tonnes on its bespoke cradle and had the dimensions 13.9 m x 3.6 m x 3.8 m, required the use of mobile cranes alongside the aircraft's own portable ramp system.
Ruslan International manages and markets the combined AN-124 fleet of its shareholders Antonov Airlines and Volga-Dnepr Airlines.
