Was at Obs Hill on Sunday morning. Joule joint later. Here are my catches: Panninb shot attempt wasnt so successful... need more practice... Ben-G

I went there in the morning with a blur brain. Not football, just cant seem to fall asleep. Anyway, not knowing which runway is closed, I drove to weather station first. Also noticed immediately after turning right at the Bunga Raya building there is a new makeshift guard post. I wasnt stopped but did see a uniform personnel walking out of it. I supposed that is only for the duration of runway maintenance? Weather station, of course no one. next, Obs hill. When I see there is no car parked there I thought then should be at the lake for landing shot. Nope, tarak. Drove to the spooky spot, also no one... eh? mana s'mua olang? (where is everyone?). Drove back to obs hill... aiya, dun care la, let see what I can catch with 14L take off. park car, climb climb... so there they are... Jonathan and the group from Singapore... Here are some of the catches: Hell alot of A330 today Wheel still hot after takeoff Suddenly this quadrant of apron become very busy... MRD getting push back while Indian airline need to get to her parking lot crossing MRD-s path Tons of jumbo today also Nice....... One lost soul. The moment the pilot slows her down to a halt on intersection, we know this fella is lost. Lat meets the Bimbos'.... dun ask me, ask KC why are they called the Bimbos.. I have to leave KLIA when the group switched to lake side for landing shot, coz my SD card is full... :-( And btw, the amount of sacarsm flying in the air was unbelievable... it all started from Kwek's piece of OLD RM100.00 The group has pratically denied his credit to purchase any food on Malaysian soil simply because the piece of money is not usable... Great trip today Ben-G

Yo guys, Tomorrow on kan? what time? 8.30am? ben-G

Ooohh.. naked landing gear... *nose bleed nose bleed* btw, my guess: the one on the left is 727 while the right one is 737 Ben-G

Last check at 7.50am on 23rd June, still there Ben-G

Happy Birthday to MW.com... Edwin, other than marvelous, I do not know what other words can describe your word. There are angles that in real world it is almost impossible to shoot (747F for example) and the few 747 clip, one can even mistaken it for real 747 shots. Great job!!! Ben-G

Just went to the sun flower garden in the middle of the night yesterday when I reached airport for my flight 8hrs later. Looks like it is a promising place during day time... night time, ermmm lots of reflection on glass. Ben-G

weather station staff: Tower, we have unknown seismic at rit scale 6. recommend abort all departure and arrival NOW NOW NOW tower: tower to dynasty, abort abort abort. go around!!! CI: wooooooooooshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh *CI witn finger doing low level abort with engine at 100% in front of MWing spotter...* now that will be a real drama.. Ben-G

I bet the ground was shaking with me stomping back to get the camera... Ben-G

that CI with finger ah... I was on the way to my car getting unbrella when I look to the sky... 737 landing, must be another MH... wait, eh? how come got porple color under the nose one? HOLY S***!!! *sprint sprint sprint* Ben-G: YONG!!! camera camera!!! Yong: what? who's coming? Ben-G: not sure, but it's definitely NOT malaysian All: cilaka... Ci with winglets!!! *spring sprint spring*, *bazooka powering up with humming sound* Fire On Hold!!! *snap snap snap* Ben-G

Good one Liau, Never knew KLIA can be such lovely place to take pic in the morning. I am now recovering from sun burn after yesterday afternoon's spotting session.. and this certain individual's rant still stuck in my head: "why la public holiday is not on Tuesday? why do we have to work tomorrow? it is so unfair".... Upload pics later... Ben-G

arghhhh... the pain, the pain!!!! Get it out of my sight!!! i rather listen to britney spears than seeing this!!! Ben-G

Just wanna keep the size small.. every image is around 50KB Ben-G

From the dark side, I am. Hazy it was not, but too sunny Ben-G

ok.. sorry to keep all of you waiting... Here is the morning crew (Ben-G, Imran and Yong) reporting in: Air Sri Lanka turning for intersection take off Papa B taking Son B for shopping This 744 went full throttle straight from start. When it pass in front of obs hill, it sounds like explosion after explosion... As Imran pointed out, the wing was drooping down as the wing tank are all at max cap Ben-G

Quote site: With over 98% male users, Airliners.net needs to take major action to attract more female visitors. As a first step, we're changing the colors of the site to shades of pink. The whole site will soon be totally pink. Enjoy! Think they kenna hacked? Ben-G

The 757's angle is unbelievable... Ben-G
