The NAMA has regulations for the Hajj and Umrah pilgrim flights. They are saying, that aircraft older than 22 years are not accepted in general and the following types in special:

B747-100
B727
B737-100 and -200
B707
DC-8
TU-154
YAK-42
TU-204
L1011

Also aircraft registered in Swaziland, Sierra leone and other flags of convenience are prohibited.

This regulation is based on the Nigerian Aviation rules, so....

Is this a new regulation, I thought its now 30 years old aircraft that are not allowed to fly ? More airlines are still thinking of bringing in the B732 for example.
