Doha Airport - Update


Few aircraft I could spot during my long transit in Doha airport, starting with Qatar Airways Airbus A320-232 reg. A7-ADF.


Air Arabia Airbus 320-214 reg. A6-ANC.


Another Airbus A320-214 reg. A9C-AD operated by Gulf Air.


Nicely schemed Boeing B737-8KN reg. A6-FDD operated by Fly Dubai.


MNG Cargo Airbus A300C4-605R with its crazy "driver" whom cuts corners and rotates very fast in taxiing...this aircraft is reg. TC-MNV.


Bell 412EP reg. A7-HBQ operated by Gulf Helicopters.


Now...these are the real stuff...two QEAF Mirage's 2000-5 just few seconds before taking off...


QEAF Mirage 2000-5DDA dual reg. QA85, note under the front canopy, there are marking of 6 laser-guided bombs dropped of this aircraft, it might be one of those joined in operation over Libya.


QEAF Mirage 2000-5EDA reg. QA91.


QEAF Mirage 2000-5EDA reg. QA98.


QEAF Mirage 2000-5EDA reg. QA96.


QEAF Mirage 2000-5DDA reg. QA87.


Our hero, the trainer in the Mirage 2000-5 reg. QA87 whom noticed us photographing his aircraft while taxiing...here waving his hands to us !!
It's good to know that QEAF operates 9 single-seat Mirage-2000-5EDA in addition to 3 two-seat 2000-5DDA.


At last I could spot an AlphaJet E reg. QA54, QEAF operates 6 advanced trainer / light attack aircraft of this kind.
