Nice.  Wasn't that Saudi jet that landed in Newcastle reported to be a medical plane?  Hmmmm.....

 

Yes, but that flight carried a disclosed (visible on FlightRadar24) medical flight call-sign and, if I recall correctly, that was an Air Saudia owned aircraft?

 

This flight is presenting itself as a private flight (not disclosing it's call-sign).  I do note, from FlightAware.com, that the aircraft was in and out of Germany on Sunday so there is a high probability it is now just returning passengers to Germany (https://flightaware.com/live/flight/HZA22  scroll down for recent flight log).

Okay, so this plane spotting is pretty addictive. Found a smallish jet on the ground at Farnborough belonging to Air Hamburg, D-AFBS. No flight history though.  :idiot2: :idiot2: :idiot2:

Couple of dassault falcons not long left Riyadh heading in broadly the right direction

 

One of them is an aircraft owned by Setair, based out of Ataturk, Turkey - so I suspect that aircraft is on its way home and will swing North soon.  (https://flightaware.com/live/flight/KOC22  http://www.setair.com.tr/en/Iletisim.aspx)

 

The other one came from Bahrain, so I doubt if it's of interest to us.

There are actually two of these aircraft, both coming out of Farnborough at close to the same time.

 

https://www.flightradar24.com/E35L/24ac611e - is over Saudi Arabian airspace now and is on track to potentially land at Riyadh.

 

https://www.flightradar24.com/E35L/24ac6e40 - is currently over Egypt and continuing on a more south-south-eastern track.

That one strayed a bit far to the east for Saudi

 

However

 

This bad boy is flying from Farnborough and is locked on to the gulf region
