Stephan,
Are you sure this is the first one? I was under the impression that QA 350 was the second (c/n 211).

As far as I know, there is is only one PC 21 for Qatar finished - it is listed in the Swiss Aircraft Registry as sn 210. But it's true: sometimes the sn-numbers of Pilatus are really strange!

Saudi 901 = cn 155
Saudi 955 will be cn 155+54=209
First Qatar (QA350?) = cn 210.
