Biggest Aircraft in KLIA

So what is the biggest aircraft to land at Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KUL / WMKK)?


The Boeing 747 is one of the biggest aircraft in the world. You can see them everyday.


Airbus A380 is currently the biggest passanger aircraft in the world. Prototype number 1 visited KUL in November 2005. Singapore Airlines send their A380 for training flights here early this year and Malaysia Airlines will receive theirs beginning in 2011.


Cargo aircraft can be bigger. The Antonov 124 has been seen here a few times, delivering oversized cargo.


The biggest aircraft to land in KUL is also the biggest aircraft in the world. It is the one and only Antonov 225 Mriya, delivering a helicopter for LIMA 2007.

That Antonov is on of the biggest cargo aircraft charter planes I've ever seen. I cannot believe that thing even gets off the ground.
