BTW...does anyone knows here where the EX-102 that spent last years in Istanbul SAW its now operating, or for whom...according some sources she left again after a few years in almost derelict condition the turkish lands and took to the skies some weeks ago...

Would love to know also. She is years over calender and lacking some serious technical attention. Thats why she came unstuck in SAW in the first place.

Spotted S2-AET , displaying Zoom Titles , SHJ June 27.

Flanked by a DC-8, a DC-10 and 2 classic 74`s.

What a sight nowadays.

Hello Angel's Playmate,

Whose were the DC8 and DC10 ?

wd

It was Heavylift with the 8 and Avient with the 10.

Cheers

This smells like a orange air/ mugrabi rat.

He never gives up does he?
Buyer Beware

Thanks Earl

I am a L1011 Loadmaster looking for work but will give these a miss.

Mole man

The latest on Barq is "Capt M" is still trying to move an ex ATA L1011 out of VCV (Victorville)

Unfortunately VAL is non too bright when it comes to the L1011 and have had several engine problems to overcome. (scratch head & ponder?)

Supposed to leave mid August, so 4 weeks late already

Probably a good idea to avoid this one.
His load planing and load sheets to include the Told cards are all ex Air Atlanta Tristar, he even said he just changed the names, SOP's were AAI also, which he never followed.
Safety and Emergency training ID will just be issued at your first flight, you don't have to attend. just take and sign!!!!!
Emergency Training must have been when we shut an engine own due to no oil pressure abeam Bermuda and had to return to Mia enroute to Lisbon with one of the remaining engines borderline on high vibes with N194AT.
Validation, a joke, pencil whipped by the Jordan CAA.
For someone that breaks this many regulations, C checks, A/D's etc, funny how he screws you on the pay.
But what else can you expect from someone that cheats his way around the system?
He is just an accident waiting on a place to happen.

Lockheed 1011-500 msn1229 N163AT ferried 03-04aug09 PHX-SNN-AQJ, for Barq Air

I see that ex Caledonian Tristar G-BBAF now TT-DWE is languishing at the
Emirates auto museum may be her days in the air have finally ended

Lockheed records indicate s/n 193N-1093 ex G-BBAF, 3C-QRL, A8-AAB and TT-DWE was attrited (written off) in January 2009.

well she may be written of now because she has been towed across the desert to this museum how the hell they got it there because the nearest
airfield is a long way from the museum (not that i have been there) check Google earth there is a picture of her at the museum being towed

Earl, can you assure the authenticity of those images? Have they in fact been taken at the Fujairah Airport and have you personally observed the damage in the Tail Section?

AviationSam,
I took those pictures myself on 21 may 2009 at Fujairah.
The damage may be from leaking skydrol as someone said in an earlier post, did not see it until I looked at the pictures later as we were doing a quick turn and was only on the ground a short while.

Well it never ceases to amaze me! Just looked at the web site, same gang still hacking away. Now that I maybe looking for a job AGAIN.......I may have to call them! Yikes....got to pay the rent.
Sure would be nice to fly the Tristar again, what a beauty she was.
Good luck to all

Thanks for the explanation Earl. Scydrol Leakage may be possible, as the Aircraft has been moved to Ras Al Kaimah without any repair.

Hi Guys;
I have not read all the posts on this thread so forgive me if it has already been posted but c/n 1201 is now registered S9-GAR and for several weeks has been parked in Dhaka, Bangladesh. There are a couple of pictures of it if you care to look on my site at Superspotter's gallery by Clive Hindmarch :: Fotopic.Net under the dhaka gallery

It's apparently registered to Goliaf Air who at one time were linked to the notorious arms dealer Victor Anatoliyevich Bout.

Goliaf Air and a British company were suspected of delivering arms in Sudan

The link does not appear to work?
