On Friday July 10th 2015 the Air Clips Team has joined a flight of Ukraine Air Alliance's 1968-built Antonov 12 freighter UR-CAH from Luxemburg Findel to Las Palmas airport, Gran Canaria (Spain). Flight UKL 4075 took off at 12:57 hrs local time and almost seven hours later it touched down at 18:34 hrs LPA local time. The airplane was chartered by DB Schenker, the world's leading specialist for logistics to include special air cargo. The mission was to bring one huge piece of oilwell equipment to the Canary Islands, where it was desperately needed. The single pipe (1001 x 99 x 99 cms and 10.100 kg weight) arrived on a scheduled Cargolux B747F flight from the United States the same morning and in the absence of suitable scheduled cargo flights, the Antonov was exclusively chartered for the last part of the journey.
