Comment

I've had my eye on these mysterious flights from the Emirates to Pakistan, wondering.
Looking at satellite maps I came across Al Habieb Airport which led me to this fine piece of 'digging' : Flight of the Falcon.

This is one of several airstrips build for and financed by UAE royals for hunting.
Suddenly Versailles' looks like a modest affair.
