109 zvanicnih svetskih rekorda drzi ova grdosija .Sto onih koji se ticu dosegnute visine i brzine leta sto nosivosti tereta.Pitam se da li postoji ijedan drugi vazduhoplov sa tolikim brojem zvanicnih rekorda .
Citat:At 600 metric tons, the An-225 is the world's heaviest aircraft, although its wingspan is less than that of the "Spruce Goose", Howard Hughes' flying boat, which never flew more a single, short, low-altitude test flight. Both the An-124 and An-225 are larger than the C-5 Galaxy, the largest aircraft in the U.S. inventory. The An-225 is also larger than the Airbus A380. In November of 2004, FAI placed the An-225 in the Guinness Book of Records for its 240 records and overall outstanding aerial performance.
