The two 139s arrived UK on 15th May under their own steam.
Wow! Am glad not to be lumbered with that ferry. I imagine all the stopping and starting and accompanying paperwork to be wearisome!

HH: Irrespective of VH-XUX didn't Packer have his own Aussie registered S76?

Regarding the Dubai 139's, Would it be fair to assume that the two principal aircraft used for transporting Maktoum are therefore DU-139 and DU-141 (below)?

I am in admiration of the discreet registration just for'ard of the horizontal stabiliser - just how it should be. If only the Queen's Helicopter Flight had negotiated something similar for XXEB!
