TOE

Plane is still maintained by Iraqi mechanics every six months, according to a local source in Tozeur. The aircraft seems clean, the tires are inflated which is quite rare for a plane which is standing in the desert for more than 10 years. The airport at Tozeur doesn''t ask any parking fee for this plane.

	As close as I dared get with very tight security. Cover paint deteriorating and old Iraqi livery starting to be revealed.

	Stored in Tozeur since the first Gulf war, this SP is still maintained every 6 months by a team of Iraqi mechanics. Will it fly back one day?

	Stolen shot of YI-ALM. This aircraft operated for the Iraqi government. Still grounded at TOE after the gulf war, the paint has been entirely removed and there is a heavy protection around the aircraft. Of course, photos were forbidden ;-) Sorry for the bad quality, I took this shot by lifting my camera over a big wall, and weather was awful.
