  1. -- Antonov 225 has never landed here, but 124s every now and then. One of the flights flew 16 military vehicles to Finnish ISAF-troops in Afganistan. http://www.airliners.net/search/photo.search?distict_entry=true&aircraft_genericsearch=Antonov%20An-124%20Ruslan&countrysearch=Finland
  2. -- Thank you for the WEFT information. None of those planes look like the one I saw. It didn't look like a cargo plane at all: new, military gray, long and narrow fuselage, straight narrow wings with six propeller engines (six propellers, six engines and six exhaust trails). My first impression was that it looked like something in between a Fokker 50 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fokker_50 and a U2 but much larger.
  3. OK, thank you. This is just the information I've found during these almost 4 years I've been trying to solve this mystery. I'm trying to explain in a clearer way (I'm sorry about my English. It's my third after Finnish and Swedish): -about same size as 767/747 -had six propeller engines (I ment this when I wrote six engines) and six propellers -very long wings and fuselage -wings were directly towards the fuselage -this plane appeared to be brand new, appeared to have resemblance to a Fokker passanger planes -Boeing B-29 kind of a structure: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_B-29_Superfortress -the color was propably pretty close to the gray Finnish Air Force uses on their F-18 Hornets
  4. I live about 20 kilometers from Helsinki Airport or (IATA: HEL, ICAO: EFHK). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helsinki_Airport I've been googling now for a couple of years of an unknown grey plane that landed over our house in the beginning October 2009 at 4 pm local time. This happened just a few days before Hillary Clinton visited Moscow and I came in to the conclusion that this plane somehow had something to do with Mrs Clinton's visit to Russia. The plane was un-marked, shining new, no visible windows, military gray in color and with 3 propeller engines on both wings. I saw the plane for about 15 seconds at an altitude of about 700 to 1000 meters, which is the normal altitude for approaching planes from this direction (NW). I saw it from the right hand side, underneath and from behind as it was decending towards the Helsinki Airport. It looked very much like Fokker 50, but with much longer wings and fuselage. And it was absolutely not C-130, but much lighter looking. Even resembled U-2 but with 6 propeller engines. And I am absolutely sure it had those 6 propeller engines, because I saw 6 lines of exhaust smoke leaving the plane. I have talked with a lot of people who work at the airport and for Finnair and other companies, but nobody has seen or heard anything. Maybe it just did a flyover. I would really appreciate if somebody would be able to solve this mystery. This news is about Mrs Clinton’s visit to Moscow in 2009:
