Some special guests....

Postby Mictheslik » Fri Jun 13, 2008 3:00 pm

I was waiting for a J to complete a circuit when this smoky beast trundled across the airfield.....absolutely gorgeous Kuwaiti Air Force L100.

Fortunately he entered the pattern and landed on 25 :D

Nice catch!  I see it doesn't have the foot windows like a C-130, is there a reason for that or is it just the airline's decision to do without?  I think it looks better with them...

Isn't it considered offensive among Arabs to show the bottom of your foot? ;D
