It is. By the way, I've heard that Saudi will stop coming to Ostend within a few weeks. So, if you want to take pictures, don't hesitate, shoot them now!

Hello

Is it the meaning that they stop flying @EBOS and start to fly (regular) at EBBR again with the B747F?

Because until 2003 and 2004 we still saw HZ-AIU very regularry at EBBR but than Saudi started operating from EBOS with the 74X. But since a wile the BIAC (in meanwile Brussels Airport) site mentions the 74X again in the Saudi Timtable but it's almost always cancelled or delayed (most of the time until the next day).

I've only seen it once again but it was TF-AMC

(the better for me

).
Wile I could have already seen it about 10 times I think.

(PS: does the HZ-AIU still has that ugly stripes on the main cargo door (right) ? The right rear of the plane urgently needed a paintjob when I saw it the last time.)

Best regards: Yannick

Last summer, TF-AMC replaced HZ-AIU while it was on maintenance. During those checks the B742 was repainted and looks like new now.

From what I've heard (and I have absolutely no confirmation about that), they would stop flying via Ostend and make their fuel stop in Brussels.
