They also operated some Hajj flights from Heathrow with B744 although they do fly there with B772

I do believe they had a passenger sadly pass away on one of the inbound flights to Brum.

Quiet a regular thing on Haj flights, although these days certificates to travel are required. Remember a lot of the folk that go on the haj want to die there so many old and frail muslims make the journey only once in a lifetime.
Did a Haj for Laker in 1980's and averaged one a flight which was pretty sad.
