Saha Airlines took over this Boeing 747 from the Iranian Air Force. The IRIAF markings are still on the front fuselage.

Former Iranian AF 747 5-8105 flying with Saha Airlines, with their logo on the tail. Also has Iranian roundels, the refueling boom and the serial partially in place on the nose. Is it really a civilian aircraft?

Very last opportunity to fly with a passenger Boeing 707 was in March 2013, with services ending in early April. I joined a flight with a group of pilgrims to the city of Mashad, near the Afgan border. The Iran Air force code 310 still on the nose of the airplane, the full registration is on the nosewheel door.
