ImageThis is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum.
Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post.
In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.).

Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so.

Frankfurt Hahn (EDFH/HHN) 16.10.2011: Jordan IL-76MF - Mil?

Post by USAFE »

Hi gents,

saw a brandnew IL-76MF in Hahn today.
What do you think? Military or civil one?

Reg (JY-JID) seems to be civil...

Cheers!

I read in AirForcesMonthly that JIAC is owned by the Royal Jordanian Air Force, and hours are contracted out to the RJAF so the RJAF has to pay for the use of these Il-76s.
Cheers,

call sign was "RJZ361" and RJZ is the three letter code for Royal Jordanian Air Force.

The Jordan International Air Cargo should be a subsidary of the Royal Jordanian Air Force.
Thus proborably it will fly a lot for RJAF, but not only
