Goes with out saying this will be the rarest military movement through Aberdeen this year , The Qatari Air Force DHC-6 Twin Otter ( MAQ ) arrived on the Saturday afternoon ( 17th) and departed at 08.30 local on the Sunday for LSZR Altenrhein under its Canadian ferry reg and by all accounts destined for the Qatari Special Forces/ Parachute unit

Great catch, DD. Are the Qataris getting just the one Twin Otter, or could there be more that might pass through Aberdeen?
