The 8K tailcode on this UC-12M Huron reveals that it belongs to the Headquarters of the Commander Middle East Force (CMEF). The Beech is stationed at Muharraq Bahrain since 1999 and pictured in 2005 at its homebase in the small Gulf country. Before 1999, the military King Air variant served the Naval Air Facilities at Mildenhall (8G), Sigonella (no code), Naples (no code) and Rota (no code). It now flies uncoded with CMEF since 2006 and is still serving CMEF by mid 2018. This photo is copyright © Stephan de Bruijn, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
