Hey Sasless, you failed to finish the story, had you done so the ARAMCO decision would make perfect sense. The Tanajib B212's which started life as B412's are mostly flown by expats, so of course you'd take out the IFR kit and aircon. The RT B214's are mostly flown by Saudi's, so of course you'd leave the IFR kit and aircon IN.
That's just the way things work over there!
