Some shots over the Fighter party at SZB the last few days Breaking formation to land, one of my favourite subject to shoot The beloved MKMs coming in to land at SZB (rare occasion!) A closeup of our local heroes! Note that Mat Sabu name is still on the aircraft from his last joyride Su-30MKI taking off Su-30MKI returning home The French party coming in style! Pulling away with Afterburners, those tanks must be heavy! Landing with a high nose up pitch!

Looks like the russian knights will debut their 4 ship su-30SMs at LIMA 2017. Cant wait!!!! https://www.google.com/amp/s/sputniknews.com/amp/military/201703061051297413-lima-2017-airshow-russian-knights/

Read another source saying she ejected and was hit by another plane. Trying to google back that forum. The risk of aerobatic flying. Rest in peace

The star reports that the team will arive today most probably at SZB. Any idea on the arrival timing?might want to catch them at todays landing and flypast for tomorrow. At least no need to headache about SZB vs KLCC for tomorrow

Weird location really..the info so far on friday flypast at klcc just states that best place to view will be from the park. Still wondering if therewill be any rooftop spot we can get to.

always painful to watch a plane on the ground like this. Seems pretty intact though

A chilling photo of the Blue Angels crash. Must be heart wrenching for those still in the air

Rescue services from the Egyptian armed forces reported receiving a distress signal at 4.26am local time (2.26am Irish time) from the EgyptAir plane that went missing overnight http://www.rte.ie/news/2016/0519/789411-egyptair/

What we know so far: Egyptair flight MS804 took off from Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport at 11.09pm local time on Wednesday night on route to Cairo International Ten miles into Egyptian airspace, at 2.45am this morning, it lost communication with the radar tracking system at a height of 37,000ft The plane had 66 people on board when it went missing - 56 passengers, including one child and two infants, 7 crew members and three security personnel The aircraft pilot- who has not yet been named - has 6275 of flying hours, while the plane was built in 2003 The missing flight made radio contact 10 minutes before it disappeared from radar Egyptair officials and the Egyptian civil aviation say the jet probably crashed into the sea A rescue plane has arrived at the coordinates of the planes last know location One British national has been confirmed as on board the plane The nationalities include 30 Egyptians, 15 French and one each from UK, Canada, Belgium and Portugal The Greek Merchant Navy has reported seeing a 'flame in the sky' in the south Mediterranean. http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/egyptair-flight-ms804-missing-live-8003059 Wonder if the last point, points to anything significant

"We are very disappointed to lose Christoph as CEO but we fully understand his reasons and respect his need to do this," Malaysian Airlines Chairman Md Nor Yusof said It said that Mueller had set up a strong management team which would be the foundation for a successful turnaround http://www.bbc.com/news/business-36088834 Above statement might be political but i believe as of now any theory of him leaving are just pure speculative. Lets just give it some time.

All seems rosy and beautiful at the start. Just like all things are. Didn't expect them to roll so quick though, and so sudden

Some reports mentioned that the tail hit the ground and crashed on the second landing attempt. The video meanwhile shows a steep almost vertical dive. Wonder what actually happened

Wonderful coverage there guys! Thanks for bringing the experience to us here at mwings

Either way the current buzz online that worse, seems to make it like a pilot error is horribly blown out of proportion.

I believe there has been mass confusion over the debris findings. The flaperon found was confirmed to be from MH370 The orher debris found and investigated after that were the ones uncofirmed. The few days after the flaperon findings, everyone was claiming to have found parts and debris. None were verified as true though

"Malaysia is convinced that the flaperon found in the Reunion Island belongs to Malaysia Airlines (MAS) Flight MH370, after its team of experts confirmed a maintenance seal on the plane's part matches MAS' records." What is a maintainence seal?

Spotted her on the tarmac after some heads-up from FB. Turns out to be the gov jet for Asean Summit carrying a certain Sergey Lavrov Pic taken from the ramp after departure drop off area

I do hope this is a new lead after months of disappointment.

since im insanely lazy to upload to photobucket after my last bad experience there, feel free to browse some of my photos here. Not the best of photos but enjoyed every moment of it so far! https://www.facebook.com/iwan.shafiee/media_set?set=a.10152632927786712.1073741841.631291711&type=3&uploaded=10 Yeah was kinda hoping they would stay or at least bid farewell with a special flypast.

Was barely a kilometer away from the crash site today. Couldnt get any visual as the collision was behind us and there were trees blocking our view. Heard a loud cracking sound and was shocked to hear an explosion soon after. Something i hope i wont experience again. Im so glad there were no casualties

Ill be there fitri. Lets make a list of mwings membrs who will be there during LIMA. So far we have: LIMA 2015 Iwan 15/3 to 22/3 Sascha 15-3 to ? Fitri 20/3 (day trip) Feel free to add to the list.

Sascha, Dinner would be great! will be arriving in Langkawi on Sunday Morning. Hope to get more info on rehearsal timings. its 12.30PM according to the Air traffic controller schedule. Still a little bit disappointed by the last minute cancellation from the Russian knights.

Whatttttt??? No russian knights?? Now thats a big letdown for me.was looking forward to watching them again this time around..sigh..also notice that there will be no typhoon in the list

Would be great if they had flares at LIMA. witnessing fighters dispensing flares is quite a rare sight for me. (Those tiny 'sparks' from smokey bandits doesnt count) Well, sure hope they dont pull out. Although the J10 arent really pretty to look at, this might be a rare opportunity for us

The current list does show 1st august as part of the aerial display programme with 7 aircrafts. Either way still looks juicy
