Hello,

There was a 747-400F that landed at FLL today but I can't identify who it is. It has a blue tail with the blue going diagonally down almost to the belly and the rest of the plane in white. I couldn't get close enough to see the registration. It was parked at the FedEx ramp when I left. I couldn't find the flight on Flightaware either. Can anyone shed any light on the operator?

Sounds like Atlas Air..? Did it have a globe on the tail?

Now to think about it, it was Atlas Air but without any titles at all. It had the scheme but no globe or anything.

It is a horse airplane, privately owned by a Saudi prince I think it is. I've parked next to it plenty in SDF just can't find any of my pictures of it right now.


Start sequence, 3,2,1, make it so...

Just FYI, Emirati isn't Saudi by a long shot.

Yeah I know, I don't know why I thought that.

Looks like a former Great Wall 74F? When you said it looked like Atlas but without the globe, I would have said UA's 744 used for charters - it was previously leased to Atlas and is only missing the globe and Atlas titles.

I saw one just that at LAX this past Sunday (17 March, 2013)
It was parked next to 747-400 BCF B-HKJ which looks NOTHING like the pics in the database.
I would upload my shots- but none of them are any good.
