  1. Sunday 01 March 2009 As usual, nothing special today... 9M-AHF with the SIN-KUL sticker just about to exit runway 04 while 9V-SVE taxies by on Alpha in the background. A very symbolic shot, as it is just a matter of time before AK gets the rights to fly PEN-SIN and compete head-on with SQ on this route. Wilson: I drove around looking for you guys after 9M-AFW but couldn't see anyone! I guess you guys must have gone to photograph aircraft on 04 approaches when I went to find you guys? I was slightly ahead of the Rapid Penang bus stop.
  2. Nice shot of B-6243, Wilson! Exams over? Enjoy your holiday! Saturday 28 February 2009 Here is the list of aircraft seen at WMKP from 0810h to 1040h: 9M-MMS, B-6243, 9M-AFW, HS-TAT, 9M-AHD, B-16101, PK-CJT, 9V-SVM, N188TL, 9M-AHG, PH-CKD, N583FE, 9M-MQN, HL7482, N453FE Yes, only 15 aircraft in 3 hours... * yawn * Anyway, here's a small selection:
  3. Monday 23 February 2009 (sorry I only posted these today... didn't have time last night!) 9M-MLA is already very hardworking on the PEN-KUL shuttles. Fresh out of maintenance is 9V-SVB, sporting the revised livery! And since weather wasn't ideal, I decided to go close-up on this OH-LBU operating AY1963 RVN-AMD-PEN. Oh yes... and Kartika resumed operations to PEN on 23Feb09 using the all-white PK-KAD.
  4. Nope... didn't see anyone. Where was he? BTW, PK-YGR has been operating for UPS over the past few days. Oh yes... before I forget again, Kartika will resume flights effective 23Feb. Hopefully they come back with different aircraft!
  5. Saturday 21 February 2009 The following were seen from 0800h to 1100h: PH-CKB, HL7600, B-6160, HS-TAW, 9V-SVO, 9M-AHO, 9M-AFO, B-16109, PK-YGR, N523FE, N456FE, PK-CJW, PK-LMY, 9M-MQB That shows how pathetic it is over here... 14 aircraft in 3 hours. Absolutely nothing compared to the stuff our friends are getting in KUL or SIN (I'm absolutely green with envy at the recent shots of the Omega Tanker DC10, Cardig Air B73F and Mandala's A320 at Changi). Anyway... here's a little selection from today:
  6. Wednesday 18 February 2009 Pleased to present to you MH's latest toy (9M-MLA) operating MH1139 (PEN-KUL) this morning: And also Sriwijaya's latest addition to the fleet (PK-CJW):
  7. Hi DavidC and Vivek, Yes, AY1963 was a charter. This is the 7th out of 10 charters they are bringing in this Northern Winter.
  8. Monday 09 February 2009 AY1963 OH-LBT RVN-AMD-PEN BTW if you guys haven't realised, 3Y has been cancelled until further notice since 01Feb09. JT has cancelled 2 out of 3 flights daily, and Riau and Batavia ain't coming anymore. SQ196/195 cancelled on Mondays, Tuesdays and Saturdays.
  9. Hey KC, I have been refreshing this page non-stop desperately over the past few days in anticipation of your SQ A330 photos, and I was not disappointed. Keep 'em coming!
  10. Time to revive this thread with some shots from Thursday 29 January 2009. SQ 777s are becoming interesting these days as they are progressively being repainted into the revised livery. 9V-SVN seen in "hybrid" livery here without the white cut-off at the base of the vertical fin.
  11. Yes, effective 16FEB09, the following PEN-KUL sectors have been flight-planned as B738: MH1145 PEN-KUL STD: 1200h Mon/Tue MH1149 PEN-KUL STD: 1520h Mon/Tue MH1157 PEN-KUL STD: 1840h Mon/Tue Don't ask me why it's only for Mondays and Tuesdays!
  12. Saturday 24 January 2009 Nothing interesting, but in case you haven't seen the "hybrid" SQ livery (i.e. new larger fonts but without white-coloured cut-off at base of vertical fin), here is one example! Catch them while you can. 9V-SVJ operating this morning's SQ191.
  13. Friday 23 January 2009 I don't know about you guys, but this is the FIRST time I ever photographed EVA Cargo on rotation! CI731/732 was delayed and operated by an A340-313X (B-18802).
  14. Yes guys... what Walter said is very very true. I seem to "always" get the rare ones because I only post when I get rare ones! Hah hah hah! You don't know how much time I've 'wasted' on days when I only get the normal stuff! And it can get quite boring here because it's always Firefly Firefly Firefly SQ B777 AHK A300 CX A330 TG A300/330 KE B74F MH B734 etc etc etc. There are days when I get absolutely nothing (especially now that so many flights have been cancelled). But then, that's why this hobby is so enjoyable! Raj, I'm not sure if TF-AMD is on long or short-term lease to Maskargo. The "Operating for Cargolux" sticker is still on the aircraft. Oh yes... for those interested, there are 3 extra SQ flights for CNY: 23JAN09 SQ128/127 STA: 2150h STD: 2245h 24JAN09 SQ122/121 STA: 1130h STD: 1225h 27JAN09 SQ126/125 STA: 1840h STD: 1935h All SQ flights operated using B772 (9V-SVx or 9V-SRx). All other aircraft types in SQ's fleet (including the brand new A330) are not scheduled to operate to PEN. There is also an Air China narrowbody charter some time this/next week but it's in the middle of the night. Also, CX692 on Tuesdays has reverted back to A330 operations. And a gentle reminder about the 6th of a total of 10 AY1963 flights, on 26JAN09. As before, STA of 1845h. Pray for good weather. Finally, a happy CNY to all of you!
  15. 21 January 2009 What a treat to shoot this operating MH6122 this morning!
  16. Very nice shots, guys! CX692 for these two weeks have been 773s... And a piece of news... look out for B737-800s in MH colours beginning 16Feb09!
  17. Where were you and which flight were you on? Should have said "hello" to me!
  18. Affirmative, next AY1963 will be on 12JAN. STA 1845h. Also FYI, TG will be operating a new schedule effective 17JAN09. TG426 (STD: 0810h) Days . 2 3 . 5 6 . TG422 (STD: 2205h) Days . . 3 . . 6 7 i.e. TG will not nightstop on Wed, Sat and Sun. CX692 on Tuesdays is now filed as EQV (equipment varies) and will revert back to A330 at the end of January 2009.
  19. New year, hence a new thread. Been a very quiet start to the new year here in Penang. Weather has been OK for the past few days but there just weren't any interesting subjects, until today... finally. CX692 operated by A340-300 B-HXE. Well, it's not too late to wish all of you a very Happy New 2009 and may more interesting subjects fly into PEN!
  20. AY1963 was operated by OH-LBO today, while CX693 was B-HUJ. Weather was crap, but here's one shot taken using my compact camera.
  21. People... there will be AY1963 today (29DEC08) STA: 1845h. Weather doesn't look too good though.
  22. Saturday 20 December 2008 9M-AFP AK6313 PEN-KUL
  23. Sorry I only just saw your message. I tried to photograph B-HOW departing today but the weather was not very good. Anyway, Air Hong Kong sent in yet another leased A300! I shall not reveal its identity yet (it's neither the yellow nor green Kuzu). This should create some excitement when you next go spotting! BTW today's Hajj flight's STA is 1205h and STD is 1330h to JED.
  24. Monday 15 December 2008 AY1963 operated by OH-LBS. Landing just ahead of the AY was CX692 operated by B-HOW.
