    aircraft is an Afcom Cargo B737-86N(BCF)(WL) which is leased from flight lease.
    so yeah, it's an Indian B738 doing cargo ops MAA-CMB-MLE.

    Spotted MH A350-900 (rego 9M-MAE) near Terminal 4 at London Heathrow yesterday. This aircraft was grounded at LHR due to issue in the tail section since 14-Mar-2025. Does any body know in detail what was the issue? eventually the aircraft was ferried back to KUL as MAS1D yesterday afternoon.

    no idea, it's a Military Transport​ aircraft as in planespotters.net/
    it's an aircraft that was delivered to USAF in 2013.
