Just seen HS-SEC in Fujaraha a few days ago, was told it was impounded here in the UAE for being overweight on the cargo, violating regulations etc.
Aircraft has been here for months according to the ground staff.
So much for Sky eyes Thailand and Sonnys/ Sabirs latest adventure.
Some how they never learn to pay the crews and operate the correct way!
Guess they finally got busted this time!
This was the old Tradewinds Tristar, sad to see it sitting in the 44 degree heat rotting away.
Took a picture of it but not sure how to post it here.
From what I remember this aircraft had the 524 engines,
Seen many Tristars up in Ras al Kama also, just wonder did they meet the same fate?
