Hello everyone,

I hope you're all having a great Monday. Of course it is February 29. This day comes once every four years so I wanted to make the most of it with uploading the rest of what I caught on February 21.

That day, I was not only treated to my first refugee flight capture, but I was also treated to these amazing planes such as: the Korean Air Boeing 777-300ER in the special Children's Drawing Contest livery, my first Aeromexico I've seen since February 2010, and last but certainly not least, I've had the privilege to film the mighty Antonov An-124 for the third time. This time, I caught the Russian version of the beast since it was operated by Volga Dnepr. It is seen parked at the Infield. 

The original reason why I wanted to go out plane spotting that day was because the Antonov was supposed to take off at around the time I was filming the beauty. What stopped him from taking off that day was a fuel leak, therefore, he took off the next morning. The gigantic beast was in Toronto to deliver truckloads of car tires. 

Despite missing the gigantic beast taking off, I was privileged to have seen the other awesome rare planes come in such as the Royal Jordanian Airbus A330-200, as seen in my last video, the Korean Air in the special livery and so much more. In addition, I also met up with CenturyHornet, planesrule10, and so many awesome people from the Facebook group. Again, it was so good to meet up with every single one of you and I certainly had a lot of fun that day. I hope to see everyone of you again soon.
