    After visiting the link suggested by Azmal, I now recall other incidents, especially the Fokker (or Twin Otter) that crashed at Tawau. Some questions arise soon after...

     

    Here:

    1. The Saudi 747 case - is it possible for a ground engineer to taxi the plane???

     

    2. Airbus A.330 9M-MKB Malaysia Airlines is reported damaged beyond repair. What happened to it thereafter, having "damaged beyond repair?"

     

    3. The punctured Korean Air Cargo - was it repaired (at WMKP) and flown off? Where did that piece of flap fell on?

    Malaysians tended to pronounce "t" as "d".

    Many can't actually correctly pronounce "th" as in "thousand".

    May wanna work on that  tongue.gif

    Oh because in Malay language "t" is pronounced like "d", as in Portugese and Spanish... Remember Portugese first arrived in the Peninsula before the English... rolleyes.gif

    Hey, sounds like riddle of nostalgia flowing in... I've only been to Subang Airport once, though... And that was in 1998. I really miss it...

     

    Guess most of you grew up in Klang Valley and vicinity and visit to the airport is no problem at all... Nice pictures you guys have! Old but, as always, meaningful!

     

    I thought there is only one accident involving civilian a/c in Malaysia, the famous tragedy happened in Johor. I was pretty surprised to know there had been more... Especially when there is one due to miscommunication! Couldn't have the pilots read from the aeronautical charts that MDA was 2400ft??? The charts are right there; the crews could have consulted ATC in such case of doubt... And ATC radars (with transponder function, I guess) would have revealed the fateful altitude then!

     

    By the way, adding a "to" into "...descend (here) two four zero zero..." wouldn't help much either because it could be intepreted as "22, 400" in a general situation. Any way to remove such confusion?

     

    Educate me, please... biggrin.gif

     

    PS: Is the Flying Tiger's skeleton still around?
