Come on guys , get real........... What the hell is a modern airliner doing 'wandering' off course so much in a sensitive area ? If he was out of Sharm / Taba whatever , he most likley was supposedly heading for Al Arish ( which sometimes has a VOR going ) on the coast just off Gaza.
Either VERY poor FMC loading / VERY poor monitoring - situational awareness /failure to engage LNAV etc etc , OR has someone brought back the dear old 737-200 ?
must have been a special Page 3 girl that day !
