A Nippon Cargo (NCA) and AirBridgeCargo 747 from November 1991 unti May 2012. Then followed the lesser known airlines when it flew as 4L-MRK with Kam Air for The Cargo Airlines, EK74786 with South Airlines and finally as depicted here. It is still active as such at the time of uploading. Photo taken through the terminal windows at a great distance in adverse weather, hence the poor quality.

A little bit more paint would have been nice but we can't be fussy these days when it comes to Soviet-era a/c! Pictured here rolling out on rw30L.
