I have shot a lot of AN124 Ruslan movements in recent years whether in the Bay Area or now we are in Seattle.  I am still happy to see them, of course, but something a little different is welcome.  When I arrived in LA, there was one parked up on the ramp near the museum.  I figured it would be gone by the time I was back for my helicopter flight but I was wrong.  It was still there.  Consequently, I was happy with a few new views on a familiar beast.
