A number of MEA's narrow-body Airbus birds are "F" registered, also. It cracked me up every time seeing their registrations...all "CHEESE" based! The -321's all have something like "F-ORMG" and "F-ORMJ" etc. It read funny, in a "HAHAHA!" cheesy kinda way.
Is there any word on damage to the terminal itself? BEY has one of the nicest Duty-Free's anywhere (albeit small) for buying those awesome sweet treat-snackie-thingies (aka Lebanese Sweets...not to mention the sweetest eye-candy attendants behind the counter...).
Condolences to everyone caught up in this mess. Pray it doesn't spiral.
