According to their website: At present 4 ex-Saudi B-737-268. Plans to acquire -300’s and -400’s as well, acc to web-article.

Found pics of the 4 a/c at the a-net picture database between Jan 2005 and Apr 2006, all converted at ADD.

Strange that there is no other mention of it on pprune. Just curious because I met a bloke today who had just been hired…

I especially like the screw driver just below the fire handles on the center console on the cockpit pic they have on their website. :p

Instills confidence don't ya think :}

Will this work? Hmmmm:hmm:

My thoughts exactly!

Set up to be an ACMI/sub-charter operator with B737-200 and B737-3/4/500. With the SHJ charter operators just hanging in there, the region needs a new airline taking care of this niche.
