As I am busy sorting out my holiday pictures I want to show you some more and first starting with trip AMS-HEL-HKG and spotting in HKG.
Flight was OHLXM A320 from AMS to HEL. Flight HEL-AMS was with OH-LGB.
During taxi out to RWY 24 I saw the last Martinair aircraft in OC (PH-MCL) on the D2 gate with 2 sisterships in NC.
After takeoff RWY 24 and banking a good opportunity to make shots of EHAM/AMS.
You have a twin brother Pieter who joined me on LXM to HEL?
On approach to 22R in HEL with still here and there some snow in Finland.
Had to wait on the taxiway as you can see on the screen an E170 of Finnair arrived and we had to give way to her.
Just half an hour to do some spotting in HEL and nicest aircraft I saw was a Dutchman.
Finally boarded OH-LGB, which is now again wearing Moomings livery. From our ship seen sistership OH-LGD.
During my walk to Regal Airport Hotel I was shocked to see this much taxi's! And also on the right on other side of railroad again the same amount of cabbies!
Here my large hotelroom or can I call it a suite?
View from my room over the terminal on the very very busy cargo appron. Other side of room I could see the entire 07L-25R runway!
Took those shots out of my room:
PH-BFU
Also some shots I posted before of Wunala Dreaming etc. were taken out of my room.
Finnish friend:
A bad one at really foggy day but Royal one came in from BKK.
Shot of terminal
YOu cannot see in but see all things outside make a nice peace of art.
Two skippies, one came in 07L, other one departing 07L.
What was Icelandair doing in HKG? I guess she's been leased out to Air Niugini and now reade for ferryflight back to KEF. Must be TF-FII as I saw this one in 2007 in the same livery in AMS.
In front of maintenance area seen from B-16301 while waiting for taxi-back after tech. failure on my flight to TPE where I've never been this holiday
Shots of both Tokyo airport follow hopefully. As the memory card with my best Tokyo shots broke down I can not show you a lot of shots from NRT/HND.
Some more shots of my flightback from HKG to HEL and AMS follow as well later on this week.
Best regards,
-
Any place in that office for me?
Good ones mate! Looking forward to see more! -
I know quality of shots is not good, first one was inflight with some fog around HK. Nr.2 & 3 from aircraft with dirty windows but just wanted to share them with you.
The 5th Oasis ex ANA as Sneeze mentioned, maybe this one? Seen in Tokyo HND. The regi number gives something like Atlas Air look a like?
N429MC

Libyan CR9. Really beauty Pieter! I heard in KL from English spotter they flew CR9, was surpriced to hear it but really good! Rest fine as well. To bad you didn't get Tarom 737 instead of 310! WAAAW Kuwait 777
I saw her in LHR last summer but was little to late to take picture are it came in when I was still in bed, dunno anymore, it was my own mistake somehow Days after kept being served 744. -
Day later Austrian was back again on same place inside hangar. So probably out for testflight or new Austrian came in. Saw her depart and was really short runway use so testflight gives sence! Only the time of testflying does not..
-
And some other nice ones from HKG yesterday:
VH-OJT off to Australia departing 25L. Took this one from my hotelroom.
And VP-BIM on one of her first flights! Got delivered just couple of days ago!
-
Seen on remote when taxiing out on OHLGA to 07R for departure to Helsinki. Nice and unexpected!
Further seen Oasis stored on HKG. First one is after departure from Macau to KLIA last week. Others been made also during taxiing in OHLGA.
-
Air Niugini! Keep me updated when leaving please! Sure worth going to AMS for that! Saw some nice one of that airline in HKG yesterday (see HKG topic).
Further in AMS yesterday.
-
Guys some shots from macau of yesterday. Only having so much bad dust spots on pictures! In Japan they didn't understand what camera cleaning was due to their really bad English language skills. First thing I'll do when I get home is take camera away!
Then my aircraft for my flight to Kuala Lumpur.
Is it Korean Air?
No it is not! Is it.... Yes it is!
I hope you enjoyed!
Kind regards from KL,
-
Today at 32R. I've been there again tomorrow early around 7.30 again. I'll bring myself an English spotter which I've met in hotel. Teoh Zu Yao will be there probably as well around 9 AM. Hope to see some more of you.

WAAAWW Good ones Sneeze! I took the bad weather with me and dropped above the sea in between Tokyo and HKG!

Hey guys,
Finally today some good weather in HKG! But I had to be off to Taipei today, so couldnt enjoy of it for a very long time.
I boarded Eva Air A332 B-16301 from HKG to TPE. As I was on board it was so incredible hot, first thought airconditioning wasn't working properly. Then we started up our engines AT THE GATE! Before being push-backed. Never have had this before really strange! After the engines were running already for a couple of minutes we were not being pushed-back but going forward with highspeed onto the terminal! The captain hit the brakes very fast so in one time the whole machine was standing still again and most passengers thought THANK GOD I HAVE MY SEATBELT PUT ON!
From that moment I thought, hmm I guess something is wrong. We've been pushed-back a little later but the Airbus was making strange sounds constantly. As I know Airbusses make weird sounds, but nog like these, flew AIrbus lots of times to recognize these sounds.
Well flaps went out and we starting taxi to runway 07R. As there we were lined-up the aircraft kept waiting and waiting. I thought well maybe a cargo airline doing approach on 07R but then after a couple of minutes MU 737 left 07R and then the captain announced a technical failure and told us the aircraft had to get back to the terminal. First of course we've been waiting long time before the aicraft could taxi back due to other taxiing traffic.
After we arrived somewhere on the platform I deboarded the machine. I only had half a day in Taipei, after we already had 1 hour delay before this and after spending another half an hour inside this machine waiting to taxi back to the terminal I asked myself: Isnt it better to get off as the delay can take hours longer and then you are screwed waiting for you dont know what in this overheated machine. So I asked the cabin crew. THey arranged me to go off. Lucky I didn't had any checkedin luggage in baggagecompartment so I could go off very fast
THey arranged me a bus, very big one, only for me
We drove all HKIA platform And I could skip immigration with very long queues of people. The cancelled my departing Hong Kong stamp so I could get in very fast Of course they already checked my history and passport before I could get off the machine in the first place.At the end of the day I wasted lots of time but before the flight I've spend some good time behind immigration with all the glass of the terminal this gave me some nice photo opportunities
Results I will show you when I have faster internet connection.Later the afternoon I've done some nice spotting at HKIA with first day good weather, lots of interesting traffic and hopefully some good shots! Too bad I missed TPE, but I am glad I got off as I saw 6 hours after scheduled departure time the aircraft was still on the tarmac. I wonder what was going on with the machine and if all the other passengers have been waiting so long inside of this machine.
I have to say good service for EVA Air as they didnt hesitate when I was asking to de-board, they arranged it very well and very fast! Also they started service for the people who had to wait! Dont want to say I had a bad EVA Air experience, I only wasn't lucky today.
Tomorrow of to NRT
NWA 744. Hope this one will depart in time Kind regards,
Cornelis

Maybe I can photoshop them. The CX 77W was really far away shot but will arrive tomorrow from JFK so I'll be on approach then for a good one! Also nailed 2 China Airlines A330s with fruit and flowers. 
Finally UPS M11 on HK Cargo platform. Some Cargo-company let me photograph away from their property
From here I saw a CX 742F get an engine flameout at engine startup. I made 2 photographs of it, but my camera seems to have deleted them, only find back 2 with fire-brigade around
Friday to Taipei. Saturday to Tokyo. Hope to let you know some more soon! And of course SEE YOU GUYS IN KUL on OH on Saturday 12 April in the early morning! (and of course later that day on WX or Spooky and the day after
)And forgive me for dirtspots. First thing in Tokyo to do is let my camera by cleaned!
