Good homework there on Skyeyes! Now registered HS-SEC, was at one time G-BHBR with BA.:)
The Hewa Bora 1011, 9Q-CHC is currently stored together with 1011 9Q-CHA which is being broken up after its landing accident. Hewa Bora is currently banned from flying into Europe.

Sorry Stu, should have read it better. The DC10s were used on the original freight flights, and then they changed them to 737s. Dont know why.
Aaaahh no worries mate. 😉 Maybe it was just down volumes or they didn’t have the 3’s at the time.

Aeroflot Cargo still visit, ‘cept they use B737s
Yeah I know they use the 737’s now, I ve posted a picture of one but i never knew they used the DC-10’s beforehand, thought they might have been a special charter or something.

The Biman was taken on my old Sigma SD9, before I had the Canon.

I saw the LuzAir from the Southern Maintainance area this morning but I didn’t have camera. 🙁 (Is it just me or does there seem to be a bit of a TriStar fetish in Portugal? ) I’ve seen 2 RAF L1011 fly in over the house and I caught the OMNI on the remote stand opposite T2 the other week. Anybody got more info on these oddball flights?
