16:00L ( ZH867) coming back across the channel

This is the Herc that boot legged some fuel off a Voyager after departing from Northolt as Ascot 5720

viewtopic.php?f=8&t=202089&p=1276262&hi ... 7#p1276262

I wonder if this the first time it has been back since 17/3?

This leg appears to originate in Malta

Australia!

Excellent thanks - I did wonder where they went - After tanking the C4 crew thanked the Voyager crew and said they had saved them a very long day

Tanking before a route like that is very unusual and the itinery was probably a tour highlight for the crew. Very strange route, virtually all country Capital main airports in and out pretty quickly - maybe vaccines for Embassy staff?

Indeed.

Return leg of the same flight. Very well travelled machine, it came from Tunis and before that it made a stopover at Luqa.
