Are there any links to pic's of the Event scheduled for yesterday please? Would be good to see an 'Air-show of any sort in these times'!

Which of course shows that they were not serialled directly from their FMS serials, so 17-015 did not become QA515 etc.

Yes, can see in the background of the line shot in the twitter feed one not marked up, looks like 019 the last one delivered.

A comparison of the camouflage demarcation lines shows some similarities which could tie up to these.......

QA501 possibly 17-006 from camo
QA503 possibly 17-014 from camo, now in special marks
QA505 possibly 17-013 from camo

This makes sense Tommc as these were the first 3 delivered, I think the US serials do tie up with the c/n's 17-006 being QA06, 17-019 being QA19 ect, so when a list comes out we should be able to cross refer the c/n to the Qatari serial. Unlike the Saudi jets which I have no c/n's for.
