J Parking: Coz they come in straight then turn away 45 degrees from the terminal. Just like a letter "J". Nose-in: Can apply to aerobridge gates or docking gates where the parking is just straight to the terminal with the nose of the aircraft facing the terminal. The BKI docking gates parking is the planes need to come in straight and turn 90 degrees away from the terminal with the tail r directly facing the terminal. (Dunno what it called)

So did they do routes for LBU and MYY (F50). After that, they replace it with F100 for routes to BKI n KCH, DO228 by Borneo Airways doing RBA F50 routes. *It's either I can't find my edit button or I'm really blind. ^^;

I think he ment AK A320 overall

I don't have it on pictures coz back then still hvnt own a camera yet. But it still fresh in my mind. I'm going to do a repaint with Pelangi colors on MH F50 aircraft. So u'll get to fly it on FS But u can imagine it now. F50 with no Pelangi green bungaraya logo and the Pelangi written on the body. Whats left is the Blue and green line at the end of the body. MH logo is at vertical fin and MALAYSIA is written at the ex-pelangi body logo title just behind front door.

I wonder why new malaysian airports or redeveloped ones like to implement J Parking Method on Docking Gates...LBU is like that and KIA now also like that. No more BKI style parking. (Watever the parking type calls.)

I promise last time to post a pic of RBA F50 somewhere in the forum...since this post is about RBA...so I just post it here Behold! RBA (ex-)F50 STRICTLY FOR SHARE ON MW ONLY.

What happened? Did someone "Push Upwards" on the Main Gear? Always interested to know what happened if push upwards. . So Ex-Pelangi MGJ, MGK proved what I saw last time at 1997 or 98 where MAS F50 having Blue and Green c/s on the body but with Mas logo on the vertical fin and Malaysia written on the front part of the body.

Hence, the natural brakes cooling they are doing now on AK and one of the leased A333.

Hey SV, wassup with the untitled F27? It's Fokker, so I'm interested to know

LOL fly the route from Batu Berendam to Subang? Or u plan to make a STOL stop on the top of the building?

LOL if they sell it at affordable (metal dump price) price then I would certainly buy and clean it and put it on display Recond it's interior. I think this baby has the chance to fly by replacing the faulty parts. Just the airframe is in question.

Wow...then that must be something. Great memories and dun forget to post it once u got hold of the pics Regardless how long it took. hehe

S V, Are you sure coz old TWU can barely cater for 732 and 734. Maybe you mean SDK as I heard someone there say there are 757 visited there before.

Maybe they didn't have gear cooling system installed. In the flight manual there are these procedures: Leaving the gear extended for several minutes after takeoff will provide cooling for tires and brakes (important if on a short flight segment). Extending the gear a few minutes early in the approach will provide sufficient cooling for a landing with cool tires and brakes. I guess that's what they are doing.

Where's the propellers?!?! Look worst state than JHB ones. Very looks like in the graveyard state. The propeller cone is gone on engine 1! I see the nose gear well door is open, is that the standard procedures for aircraft in storage? 2 Pelangi's also have them opened. And what's the red ribbons on the gears for?

http://www.airliners.net/open.file/0734176/L/ http://www.airliners.net/open.file/0643808/L/ It went bankrupted. The end. Is there any story behind it? What happened to this F50 now since the last photo shoot of it and also the sistership of -MER? Why they didn't sell it away at the 1st place or let MH use or give it to Netherlands Aero Museum just like the 3rd prototype of F27 that currently gracefully displayed? Or at least 'donate' to be Stork Fokker Maritime? Are they destined to be scrap and not to fly again (No hope for recond?)? What about the DO-228 fleets? Sold? What a waste of a good plane.... it makes me very furious to see they leave it like that rotting.

Hehe I'm a maniac for F50.

Still the guards let u thru nothing any hassle now thats lucky hehe

So damn lucky...all r 1st class luckiness...how do u tour the rwy edge?

That is post-911 or pre-911? So nice hv tour into airport summore, here we only get to eat the boots from the guards.

Some people say it's the fuseplug burned from overbraking while landing.

Azuddin, Wow. Get that job bro, lots of benefits. U got 1st class shots of planes, u get to get lotsa of Continental collectors item regardless it's a galley sink or a continental china tea cups And best yet, u get to near the birds. I crave to get near them

Azuddin, Oh my~~~ *hands down* U're hardcore

Is that F50 nose I see peeping out at the corner just beside the 734?? what rego is it? 9M-MGK the one destined to be sold??
