Kingdom of Bahrain A9C-HAK


The Boeing 747-4F6 A9C-HAK "Al Sakhir" (c/n 28961, l/n 1174), seen above on the south ramp of Ellison Onizuka Kona International Airport (KOA) on Thursday Oct 4, 2018, brought His Highness Shaikh Nasser Bin Hamed Al Khalifa, and a team of five Bahrain Endurance 13 athletes to Kona to complete in the annual Ironman Triathlon World Championship race on Saturday Oct 13, 2018.  While on the Big Island, the aircraft will be staged on the concrete hardstand at the Hilo International Airport (ITO) until the parties depart.

The same aircraft was on the tarmac at MSP International Airport May 22nd 2021. My guess is that one of the Royals was visiting the Mayo Clinic in Rochester Minnesota.
