Comment
One of 3 A400 flying out to make a delivery to one of their African customers. The others are : TUAF220 and TUAF222. We'll have to wait a bit to find out who the lucky recipients are this time : Libya or Somalia. That is unless they have found new buyers on that vexed continent. And what's the deal with dropping the "TUAF" from their call sign/flight-number on these flights ? They never do that on other flights abroad. What's the thinking here ? That we won't know it's them ?TUAF222 hasn't landed yet and TUAF221 is off again already.
