24. East African Airways operating a Super VC10 is correct!

Now your routing is just a bit off as Entebbe (EBB) was not served by this flight. Here's the sched....

EC 735: Bombay (BOM) 1:50a - 3:00a Karachi (KHI) 4:00a - 6:30a Addis Ababa (ADD) 7:30a - 9:20a Nairobi (NBO) 10:20a - 11:30a Dar es Salaam
Op: Saturdays only
Equip: Super VC10
Service classes: F/T/Y (First/Tourist/Economy)
Note: No local traffic BOM-KHI

I believe some of the last (if not the last) new build Super VC10 aircraft were delivered to East African.
