UA aircraft at KHI durring terrorist attack?
 

Did anyone else notice what is almost surely a UA aircraft in the AP video footage of the terrorist attack at Karachi yesterday? My link is from the NY Times online story, but it's surely available elsewhere as well. Media reports state that the attack was in the cargo area at least 1 km from the passenger terminal. There's a shot for about 2 seconds at the very start of the footage where one sees 4 aircraft nose-in to a building. The closest one to the camera is clearly a UA aircraft (all the normal livery, tail and fuselage), possibly a 738/9. The third from the camera may also be UA, although it is less clear. Am I hallucinating or does someone else see this as well? And what is that aircraft doing there??

It's not - if you view it in full screen you can see that it says "Shaheen" (I can see the S and H clearly the rest is a bit blurry) - the typeface looks to be the similar to United's but it isn't a United plane

EDIT: It's Shaheen I googled airline lists and that name matches what it appears to be

Thanks! Now I understand where crop circles come from... Guess it's time for a visit to the optometrist. But I have to say the placement and font of the fuselage lettering is extremely similar to UA.

There's also "United Airways" based out of Bangladesh, but they don't fly to KHI (or have a similar logo to UA).

I agree! :cool:

I watched the video 2x thinking maybe I missed another scene with aircraft in question.
