There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

SAIDE's (Service Aériens Internationaux d'Egypte)Savoia Marchetti 95C and the airport might be Cairo...Rgr on the confused lineage.
This photo was taken in a very out of the way place for this particular aircraft. Bonus ale if you can figure that out. (Supposedly the water tower was a known landmark at this airport).

I'm very interested in a SAIDE's Aircraft ending up in Darwin , was that a charter flight or is there a story behind it? Would appreciate any link informing on the above fact...Can you help?Have done a wee search and came up with Darwin ?
Hi Moses!BG, please see the link below to a pdf article. It is a very well written and researched archive on migrant flights to Australia. The SAIDE bit starts on page 56.
