    Hi Fablee, thanks for the update on Viewing Mall Retrofitting.

     

    Do post some photos from time to time when you are around VM.

     

    Sad to see that VM is going to be plane spotters unfriendly. :angry:

     

     

    Chaity, you're most welcome. Will post more WSSS photos once they are processed. Spotting can still be done from transit area of Changi when you should next use SIN.

     

    Cheers

    Fablee

    Have a question for you regarding overnighting a/c at Changi Airport. How much time usually before its departure will an overnighting a/c be towed to its departure gate from the remote stands? Thank you.

    I was at the Changi Viewing Mall (Central Apron Section) and thought I would post an update on the Viewing Mall Retrofitting. The VM remains open for photography as of today

    Hi Fabian, how are you? Some of the glass panels here have tinted films pasted on them, and some don't. Hope that helps!

     

     

    Hi Bob I am fine. Beaut pixes you have been posting from PEN. Great proximity to that Gurney Drive char kway teow. Thanks for info abt glass. So I guess it is a matter of the target a/c being at the right gate. I understand from mw that the viewing gallery has gone too. Hope to see more of your PEN shots.

    Is it just me or is that photo very unfriendly?

     

     

    You noticed. Sorry for the quality. That was my last holiday with a film camera. The glass was plain and much better than those at Changi transit that give greenish tint but when I had the roll of film developed, this was the result together with another shot of someone parasailing from hotel balcony. After this fiasco, I went digital.

    Dear friends,

     

    Have a question for you. When I was at PEN Bayan Lepas airport way back in 2002, the restricted area had wonderful photog friendly glass beside the boarding gates where one could take a picture like this

    Does the photog friendly glass next to the boarding gates still remain? Or has it like SIN been replaced by nightmarish tinted/photog unfriendly glass? Thank you.

    I had the chance to observe what I believe to be the beginning of the end of Changi Viewing Mall (Central Apron Section) today. The writing was on the wall, rather the pile was in the ground.

    The first pile has been driven in heralding the commencement of retrofitting work to the mall. The outcome will be a new mall with photographer unfriendly glass. Also the end of the beginning as the last section of the original mall is retrofitted.
