In the middle of the airport was a mountain of baggage, left in the open on an area between taxiways. About 12-18 months earlier the Egyptian Consulate was dis-invited to remain in Tripoli following Egypt's split with the Soviet bloc. Unfortunately their luggage failed to make their flights home with them
