Civilian Aviation

A rare visitor to Malta...note new Libya flag on tail

Superb movement....Thanks very much for showing!

Very nice, is this a support aircraft for the Mirages ?

What is that being built behind? Is it the new multi-storey car park? If so, there could be some interesting views from there in future!

Very nice, I love this scheme on the Il-76.

I don't think it's a support aircraft for the Mirages, as they are currently in the hangar being overhauled...word is that they might be disassembled and shipped to France all the way to the Dassault factories.

The new building at the back is a new office block called Sky Parks, which amongst others will be housing Air Malta's new head office.

Nice looking 76' , can't wait to see photos of the AN124 in new marks

To answer the previous question by Mike the Ilyushin brought parts and personnel to work on the Libyan Mirages. This weekend they wheeled out one of the Mirages and were trying engine runs...so it looks that the Mirages might fly out of Malta after all.

Awesome catch and shot!
