Anyone seen any updates on this topic? Stratotanker sent a distress signal before vanishing.

If there are updates the plane is still flying, that would be welcome news.

As somebody who grew up next to the Gulf, I just want to celebrate the fact that the thread title said Arabian and not Persian.

Both for the cat fight and the plane already landing (assuming safely).

Cat fight is more entertaining than a missing plane that safely landed.
