Pakistan Air Force first Embraer Phenom 100 registered PT-ZYE (V-4101) in Athens

Pakistan Air Force (PAF) first Embraer Phenom 100 (out of 4 ordered) is underway for its delivery to Pakistan. Its long journey from Brazil to Pakistan requires several fuel stops, since its range is around 1100nm. The stops it made (since it can be tracked) are the following:4/4/2009 GEO (Cheddi Jagan, Guyana) - SXM (Saint Martin, Netherlands Antilles)5/4/2009 SXM - PLS (Providenciales, Turks and Caicos Islands) - FLL (Fort Lauderdale, USA)6/4/2009 FLL - ORF (Norfolk, USA) - BGR (Bangor, USA) - YYR (Goose Bay, Canada)7/4/2009 YYR - UAK (Narsarsuaq, Greenland)9/4/2009 UAK - RKV (Reykjavík, Iceland) - WIC (Wick, Scotland)10/4/2009 WIC - GVA (Geneva, Switzerland)11/4/2009 GVA - ATH - SSH (Sharm el-Sheik, Egypt)It arrived in Athens yesterday at 12:45L and departed at 15:30L. During the delivery journey and in order to fly quicker and easier (in means of bureaucracy) it had to fly as a private plane. That is why it has the Brazilian registration PT-ZYE (c/n 50000017) and no titles, logos or stickers of the PAF. It is expected to be registered as V-4101 upon delivery to Pakistan.
