There was a documentry on Discovery last night on the AN225 titled 'super structures', I didnt know this aircraft was rotting somewhere after teh USSR broke up and was revived after eight years of storage, glad to see it back in the air and adding new destinations to its list of places visted.

And what I think is this picture has been taken from the place where runway ends (the take-off side) the place where there are few patrol pumps (AD More!)

You cannot be at the terminal to have this angle to shoot, it could only be the place I mentioned, rest Oxon can confirm!

This pic should be posted at myaviation to document its visit to Islamabad, as how often can a rare aircraft like this be spotted in Pakistan.
