Flight HRV 1140 with 13 tons of pharmaceuticals outbound to Syria via Fujairah holds short of rwy 27. The last time i heard this distinct mad prop roar was about 2 years ago when our rare Naval Tu-142 departed from here. Sadly, this may just be the last time i get to see/shoot an IL-18 at BOM as this frame is now banned from India & there aren't many others left (as i don't think our Navy's IL-38s may pass by here anytime soon) :-(
