A8- Tristars

[mallardpi]

There are 2 x ex -Caledonian Tristars sitting on the ramp at Ras Al Khaimah (UAE), registered A8-AAA and A8-AAB. Three questions.

1. Who do they belong to?

2. Are they private?

3. Which Nation has A8 as its prefix?

According to a.net these are the only two aircraft in the Liberian register, and both are with International Air Services (Icao: IAX). And what an inspired name that is for an airline...!
:zzz:

...and according to http://www.airfleets.net both are operated by Georgian Cargo Airlines.
