Whats the big secret?
Both are ACT Airlines aircraft.
Ex. ANA -400s LN928(1992') and 979(1993')
Both are BDSF converted aircraft by IAI in LLBG/TLV. (Have heard only negative things compared to the BCF conversion)

Odd. Then why does the TS specifically mention BCF, not BDSF?
If I would hazard a guess I would say they are Martinair aircraft. 4 B744 BCF's of which two fly for ACG, one flies for martinair and the last one was seen stored in Xiamen, not sure where it is now.

As you can see from B-HKD aircraft details, these are available for 'wet lease' or 'ACMI' work. The planes themselves are staying with ACT as far as I'm aware.
