What? I didn’t know that Monarch were flying troops to and from that area?
Yep, went out yesterday afternoon to an airbase in Qatar, have done this flight for the last few weeks (the regular one out on Thu, back Fri anyway). It used to be operated by Omni from about July/August….this one was an extra one though.

Great shots! The MON 767 was MON9703, a diversion from here in DTVfogland where nothing has got in all day due to foggyness! 😮 Come from the Gulf after another troop flight.
Should have left as MON703P to LGW? Thats what it was due to do this morning out of here anyway.
