Sitting in the storage area in fresh paint awaiting delivery. Afrijet ceased passenger services a few years ago flying turboprops but resumed opperations as a cargo airline with 727s. They announced plans to resume passanger services in 2008, and I belive this is one of their first aircraft. The aircraft didn't even have a reg number at the time of the photo! Comming soon to a war-torn desolate airstrip near you!
