How sad to see the lovely Tristar end her days like that, quite upset me looking at your photo Dave, many many nice hours drfiting across the pond to and from Bermuda on one of the nicest aircraft ever made from my point of view. A very comfortable quiet ride and for the crew an awesome flight deck with what must have been the best upfront view of any airliner windows......

I doubt StarJet/Air were paying any parking fees for this one.

But I'm still not sure which one he has in mind.
AFAIK, there are several TriStars parked at Ras Al Khaimah: N212AR (1212), N162AT (1220), N194AT (1230), N164AT (1238) and N389LS (1250), plus TT-DWE (1093) at Fujairah

Two weeks is more than enough time to cut up a wide-body.
