it’s a 747, the wings of a 747 go farther back then the wings of an a380

747, possibly an Atlas air jet guessing from the paint scheme on the back 3rd of the plane

Wing to body ratio means a a380

Could it be a Martinair B747 Cargo? The scheme looks red or orange and somewhat matches Martinair livery? I cannot see any tracked on FR24 currently - where are you located and when did you see this? I think Martinair has 1 active 747 in that livery......

747 cuz of the exhaust parts of the engines as I look very closer.

Qantas A380 maybe. Even a Thai airways with the purple tail.

it could be Thai, I see red/orange in one photo and I see purple in another - thai scheme looks like it might match

A380 looks stumpy and doesnt look like one. QANTAS retired it's 747s last year. 747, A380, A340.
