    There was alot of Saudi Arabian flights in the NYC area this weekend starting on Friday. EWR had N767A(762), N777AS(772), VP-BKS(763), VP-CEC(BBJ), HZ-AFA2(CL-60), and HZ-AFV(G-IV). JFK received HZ-124(A340 which is in the same scheme as N777AS), Saudi Arabian 747-400(not the scheduled flight), 747SP, 772 and another G4. Also HZ-NSA(A310), N757MA(757), and a Kuwait 747-400(Kings flight as it was KAC001).

    Ah yes that was the other gulfstream. It flew into JFK Friday then went down to IAD and now back to ISP. Thats the one I really wanted, the one I shot only has a small Saudi flag by the door.

    thanks Moose, it sure seems that way. With cameo's from the King of Kuwait and Jordan who arrived this evening at well. Was on a A319 so I'm guessing it was the Comlux A319 because he used it earlier this year.

    HZ-101(another Sauid aircraft, BBJ) arrived at EWR this evening, picture to come later. VP-BKS departed back to Europe last night. VP-CEC departed yesterday as well and is now back enroute to EWR. Its too bad that whoever they picked up didn't fly in on something new.

    All those movements Bill, they'll be renaming Newark to King Khaled International! :lol: (in case people unsure - it's the name of Riyadh's airport).

    The MEA new colors, the Saudi HZ-MF5 and the UAE 737-700 were new for me. All others were repeats.
    727-200 was at EWR (Unlrelated)
