Saudi Arabian Airlines Royal Flight C-130 visits IAD 4/12/08
Greetings,
A Saudi Royal flight C-130 (L382) at IAD this afternoon. It was seeing here departing runway 30 at Dulles. When aircraft depart runway 30 its a crap-shoot based on when they start turning. Its very hard to put yourself in the right spot for this approach. This aircraft good chance of being in my top 5 shots for 2008.
It was nice to meet up with Rafal and Blendi and several other Balt-Wash spotters as usual. How many more grey hairs can you count on your head now Rafal :)

Word on the street is that they are hauling spare parts for 747SP which is stuck at LAX. I dont know how accurate this is since this Herc is listed as in VIP configuration.
