Dear All,
I am an aviation journalist doing some research in BA Flight 149 which landed in Kuwait on the eve of the Iraqi invasion in August 1990. There seems to be something a bit fishy about the flight, and a British MP has alleged that the aircraft may have been deliberately flown into Kuwait for the purpose of dispatching British special forces and spooks. As you all probably know, the occupants of the aircraft became 'guests' of Saddam Hussein and suffered a rather unpleasent time. I've contacted a number of sources, some have been helpful and others have not. I wondered if any of the members might have any kind of 'inside track' that they'd want to share in confidence and off-the-record? Thanks for your time.
Regards,
Wake
