another pair Omani Hawks on delivery Mon 30/10/17

Just in case not already in Heads Up section ;-)

ZB128/RAFO166 (OM006) departed late morning (1125Z) off rwy07 with ZB127/RAFO165 (OM005) on first leg of fwrry flight to Masirah for 6 Sqn. OM6 showing on ModeS hex 70C0D4 so lead aircraft of pair. Currently over Med at FL270 (coasted out just to west Nice at 1308Z). First stop Bari by looks of it.
Only 2 more to go of this order then...

HTH
Cheers

PS passed over Naples and Mt Vesuvius 1356Z FL350 and begun descent.

I understand that the two jets have now arrived at Masirah after a night stop in Akrotiri, followed by two legs yesterday (to Tabuk then Riyadh - another n/s).
