Superb pictures indeed. It seems that the King of Saudi Arabia was coming from or going to Warsaw on the same trip: viewtopic,t,22007.html

He came from MAD and went to WAW.

Hello

GORGEOUS!!! :wow:

I like the saudi livery SO much!! And god I love those Saudi 747's , definetly my favourites :D

A little question :D

Why the H..LL so much aircraft? It's way to much for 1 person don't you think? It's even a worse circus than the president of the US :D
It's like 7 planes just for one person (ok , AND a delegation, but I can't imagine that delegation counts over 800 persons, because that has to be the seating capacity AT LEAST of all planes together).

The A340, is he part of the company too? Or from another government?

Best regards: Yannick ;)

Each prince, minister, etc, has his own aircraft, BBJ = Ministry of Finance, 757 = hospital, 744 and G-IV = logistic support I suppose (luggages ? lol)...

The A342 is prince Bandar, former ambassador to the USA and now chairman of saudi National Security Council, it's former F-WWBA "The World Ranger".

Of course they could fly all together in the same plane, but I'm not sure they would like that :lol:
