Iranian President in NYC

[JanetFlight]

Hi;

Does anyone knows wich plane, type, reg, etc, the so-controversial and mediatic Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad used on his recent NYC/UN Visit, and wich Airport also used?
Any site with pics of that event, (plane, of course)?
And BTW, did he make it directly, or with any stop along the Ocean, and if so, wich one...im not seeing the old 707 (if its the case this year), make it from THR until there...

I really would love a lil'bit more about this curiosity....tanx by now, Cheers

Iran Air Boeing 747SP. Came to JFK via Algiers I believe.

And he flies for free. As he is so short, they just stick him up in one of the overhead compartments.

Saw EP-IAC B747SP operating flight IRA100 today (dep. 1550UTC) on Libhomeradar. Probably that's him going home.

Who care of he comes or go?? This is an airlines crew web-site.
