HZ-HMS2 (cn 204) A Saudi Arabian Government A340 paid CLE a visit, arriving from IAD to escape the wrath of Huricanne Irene. This aircraft seems to be based at IAD and goes out on training flights and returns to IAD. Rarely photographed, great pictures were also taken by other Opshot members(click reg) who caught this beautiful A340 aircraft..................An Opshots First!

HZ-HMS2 (cn 204) Here's my contribution to tonight's Saudi-fest! This is apparently a rather rare-bird in that it is the only member of the Saudia VIP flight to be painted in standard Saudia Arabian Airlines colors. Perhaps this is to be less conspicuous when traveling abroad in this flying royal palace? Furthermore, this aircraft is a one-off short bodied version of the A340-300, initially made for the Sultanate of Brunei, but it was never delivered. Stored in Hamburg, Germany for ten years, the Saudi Royal VIP flight purchased it in Feb. 2007 and had it lavishly fitted out, only entering service for the first time in summer of 2011 already twelve years old!

HZ-HMS2 (cn 204) Near as I can tell, OPShots photographers Andrew, Hank, Ken, and I will be the first to get any decent shots for the internet of this aircraft in action with its Saudi colors. The yellow tape is still up at Zin, so congrats to my fellow "barricade crashers" for taking the opportunity for this rare catch!

HZ-HMS2 (cn 204) Great day at Hopkins! Landing on runway 6L after flying in from Washington DC/IAD in what is most likely a move to keep out of the path of Hurricane Irene.

HZ-124 (cn 4) Many Middle East and European dignitaries use the services of the Cleveland Clinic Hospital for their most important health care concerns and, as such, Cleveland Hopkins is graced with unusual visitors from time to time. Construction on the new runway 24R/6L is visible in the distance. December 15, 2003
