Antonov plans to auction off a Libyan Arab Air Cargo An-124 Ruslan if Libya does not pay unpaid maintenance and storage fees. Ukraine sold two An-124-100s to Libya over a decade ago, with the aircraft in dispute sent to Antonov for maintenance in 2010. However, it could not be returned due to the conflict in Libya. With payment not forthcoming, Antonov took the matter to the International Commercial Arbitration Court, which in May 2017 ruled Antonov could collect $1.2 million from the legal successor of Libyan Arab Air Cargo. As the money has not been recovered, the aircraft will be auctioned.
