Short Belfast
Walkaround Gallery

I took this Belfast walkaround in Cairns a few years ago. We were in a taxi heading out of the airport when I looked over and exclaimed: “Holy crap! That’s a Belfast!” A few phone calls later and I had organised a look-see.

It turns our HeavyLift have there southern base in Qld and the Belfast is often to be found at Cairns. At the time, this was the only airworthy Belfast, althought HeavyLift were in the process of getting a second in the air. The Belfast provides a realistic alternative to using an Antonov. It is much cheaper and can carry similarly sized loads. What is not immediately obvious is the size of the thing. The cargo area can hold sections of Hercules fuselage. Does that bring it into perspective? It can carry 12M racing yacht hulls. It’s big.

One of the Belfast’s clams to fame is that it is designed for carrying armoured vehicles. You can put a Saracen or a Scorpion in it as it has a specially reinforced floor. Try doing that with a Herc!

Thanks to the HeavyLift guys for the tour.
