Try for the ...

  • Airline
  • Livery
So, 3 things

This is the 2nd last of the Airlines ...

In the spirit of Christmas, a hint ... it's European

.

From the hull Colour I would guess Aeroflop 777., however will go for KLM 777 as you said European.

Aeroflop don't have a 777 in Skyteam livery AFAIK...

How'd you deduce that from the hull colour? That colour is applied to the entire aircraft and SU's birds usually have a blue hull blink.png

Dancealot guessed that it was the Skyteam livery ... thumbsup.gif

and RabC spotted that it was a KLM 777 ... thumbsup.gif

So, it is a KLM 777-306ER in Skyteam livery

Looks pretty silver to me

That one was on my AMS-Moskow-BKK flight, Nessbit. It looks similar to that II-96........ I was in.

10-hour layover at Moskow Airport. I don't reccomend that to anyone.

It looks a bit dicky because I had to (amateurishly) remove the plane parked in front of it.

Dave, like what you did here, very "Predator"esque

I'll go with a G550 for this one...

Well Mr Smith ... thumbsup.gif.pagespeed.ce.dtxKiAJ9C7.gif ... indeed you have (again) spotted well.

As for the removal ... I did my best with the free 'Paint' program and a computer bought before I lost my virginity ... w00t.gif

A340-300 as for the airline... I'll have to get back to you tongue.png

EDIT: Airline is Kuwait Airways

It is indeed Kuwait Airways but not an A340-300.

Maybe those wing-tips are after market?

I've only got 2 images of the plane ... here is the best I have of it from the back.

Does that change your mind?

Nope ... stick with the Dassault Falcon 2000 spot ... thumbsup.gif

I should have put this in the original question.

Who Owns it?

Yeah it was the rear end shot that was doing my head in... Tail fins matched, winglets matched it just looked too small from the angle of the photo...

AS for the owner well... I wonder if it was on its way to Singapore tongue.png

I think not ... however, it is famously connected to Thailand, thought not politically or through the Royal Family.

Mine wasn't a political jibe ;)

The owner of the jet being the heir to Red Bull is currently on the lam and hasn't been sighted off nobby's since September when he was in Singapore for business and couldn't make it back to Court because he was sick.

Well Mr Smith ... you can see that I don't spend much time in the News Forum ... facepalm.gif

Indeed ... you are correct!

It's the Dassault Falcon 2000LX, owned, by no other then ... son of Chaleo Yoovidhya, the co-founder of RedBull HS-RBR

But difficult to see, but they are the Red Bull Logos on the wing tips.

An interesting comment from another spotters page ...

"Another nice Formula One visitor leaving after the race. Great to see a Thailand registered airplane here at CGN, too!. Also check out the "Redbull"-Logo on the winglets. Outbound to Farnborough."

Nah winglets aren't after market on the A340 variants. Must have been the -500 series and thus a Government aircraft ;)
