Sad loss of an old friend and her crew - seems to have crashed from altitude; Serbia to Jordan but crashed in Greece. It was the one that got commented on here over time as always making an exceptionally loud transit overhead. I wonder if it had some issue with prop synchronisers or similar. Or maybe a cargo fire.
Military weapons to Bangladesh, apparently (possibly Russian ones if loaded in Serbia - nobody will admit to buying Russian products at the moment). The sort of thing these guys do, no questions asked.

Actually seems to have turned back to Kavala when over the Aegean. Seems to have been going down at 5,000 ft/min and over 200kts at the end, not aligned with the runway. Poor crew.
