The crew captain Dmitry Antonov said that a few hours before the invasion was ready to export the aircraft from the country, but was not allowed to do so "as directed by senior management. " The largest cargo aircraft in the world of An-225 "Dream", which was destroyed by Russian invaders in February 2022, had to evacuate to Germany, but a number of factors did not allow it to do so. About it writes the bild portal.

The vehicle had a vehicle to the Leipzig/Halle International Airport, which had previously received it 32 times in history. The evacuation was planned in advance and the crew captain Dmitry Antonov recalls that on the evening of February 23, a few hours before the invasion was inside the plane and was ready to fly. This was not allowed to do this "at the instructions of senior management", as they say in the material.

"The movement of the An-225 and smaller An-124 aircraft was scheduled for February 25. The decision was made on February 21. The conversation was held a few weeks before,"-said the representative of the Lipzig/Galle Airport Schuhart. At the same time, the place in Germany for "Dream" was completely ready on January 26 - almost a month before the invasion.

Satellite images from the aerodrome in Gostomel shows that important planes were deliberately left under a blow, and non -working aircraft remained intact. "Those who came to the airfield knew exactly what planes were working and which should be knocked down first," Dmitry Antonov said.

Former CEO of Antonov, Serhiy Bychkov, was employed shortly before the invasion was being taken out by friends and relatives abroad, according to the author of the material, and issued them for "aviation specialists". On March 9, the Security Service of Ukraine conducted a search and presented suspicions of the ex -director of SE "Antonov" Sergey Bychkov, as well as the Chief of Security of Sergey Nethosov. The suspicion was awarded in absentia to the director of SE "Antonov" Kharchenko.
