Back in 2003 my company chartered an AN-124 at BWI..imagine that huge goliath sitting on the BWI Tarmac! The air traffic controllers were rotating breaks and taking shuttles over to take photographs.

The plane blew 4 tires on the landing, but luckily the crew that flies the plane are also fully trained mechanics - so as one group is opening the nose for cargo load, another team is tending to the tires. Awesome sight to watch.
