We have a base in Oman....Cant say what type of aircrat fly out of there but the relationship between us and them is very good. Of course, it can change in a second (or however long it takes to draw a cartoon). I've been there a few times and although the conditions sucked I was still very appreciative of the fact that the Omanis (sp) let us fly out of there.
Ah, good, many thanks - always good to get info from someone Who Has Been There, Done That.
