Kigali DC8
Just curious... Theres a new Diesel 8 in town. Anyone know who it is flying for. I think it came from Compass Air or something similar? Seems to be a -62.
Anyone around flying it? |
new dc8
if colour white with blue stripe it is probably african intl 62, however could it be the mysterious kinshasa airways ??:confused:

Saw DC8 - White with Deep Blue lettering something like
"Kinshasa" & below that "Spirit of Congo" forward plus Arabic script over wing It was on ramp at Khartoum pm Thursday 6 February |
Interesting... was driving home the other day, an saw a DC8 in here in LUX.... Caught something out of the corner of my eye that seemed to say Spirit. Have to ask around on Monday.

Diesel Eights
Thanx for the info. No I know Alan Stokesīs aircraft. This is not one of them. I doubt if this is one of the Spirit of Africa/Gulf Falcon aircraft. I am thinking it might be a new outfit, one that they where looking crews for in FI a few months back.
