Nice to see U back in action Captain........

Captain, the FY flightdeck crews, can't MH absorb them? Its a waste don't U think letting go experience crew like that.

Doc, to go to the cockpit, do you go down or up the steps? From the outside the cockpit's deck looks like its between the deck hence your ',mezzanine floor"??

And charge them for it...

Wonder if Capt. Atan is involve in this show? Alfatihah to Arwah...

Didn't know sucha big airport like Kuching with an Air Force base some more doesn't operate 24 hrs. And it stop at 12 midnight? DOes anyone know why??

Kuantan? on the 12th?

During the early stage of the 2nd WW, Boeing B17 was painted in drab olive. They found out that, that paint weighs as much as 200 Kg or pounds (can't remember). Hence the later B17 and B29 was sent to war without any paint. The advantages of not painting the a/c is very obvious here as the a/c can carry more ammos and bombs......

Omega Tanker, its a commercial aircraft DC-10-40, right? It can't be KC10....

Seems like Berjaya Air has a surplus airplane here....

NewsEurocopter: Is the X3 the World’s Fastest Helicopter? AAA..By ThirdAge News Staff Posted September 28, 2010 5:56 PM.grab this widget | start a petition | by Care2Eurocopter revealed a revolutionary new helicopter design on Monday. And the Europe based group is hoping to break some records. The design is intended to counter its U.S. rival Sikorsky's efforts to break the speed barrier, the Daily Mail reported on Tuesday. Eurocopter President and Chief Executive Officer Lutz Bertling said, "The teams at Eurocopter took this hybrid helicopter from concept to first flight in less than three years, which demonstrates their skills, capabilities and dedication to defining the future of rotary-wing aircraft." X3's innovative design features forward-facing propellers mounted upon two stubby aircraft wings along with traditional helicopters' overhead rotor blades, producing a hybrid plane-helicopter design. The X3 is propelled by two turboshaft engines powering its main vertical five-blade rotor, while two more forward-facing propellers are installed on small wings on each side of the aircraft. The company also said the X3 can fly at nearly 250 miles per hour. Conventional helicopters for commercial and civilian flights fly at around 150 miles per hour.

Is that MWings Sanjay Thaker??

Orang tua-tua dulu-dulu kata kilat tu nak panah Setan! Agaknya ada Setan duduk situ kot??! Old folklore, the lightning was aimed at the devil..... prolly sitting in the middle of the runway, plane spotting!!

Lightning strike my house once causing a dent/hole (i think) taking out a chunk of cement the size of an adult fist, ricochet and causing another hole in the ground.

Heard on the radio just now, Airbus is asking for further delay of MH's 380 to 2012.

Heard on the radio today, FY is not taking the 734....

I woke up in a bus depot once after an overnight journey from Terengganu....

Ku Dean, met him a few times, very nice and humble man, considering his family and professional background...

Congrats Bro, its good to be on board the a/c and be able to say to my seat neighbour... "I know the Captain..."

As mention by Walter Sim BOAC is the airline, the manufacturer of Comet would be 'de Havilland'.

There is? dang!

And no PTV on 777.

Its a Pen Kul flight. The a/c was hijacked and the hijackers directed the pilot to go to Sin instead....

O/T a bit...Wasn't it Crowne Plaza Kuching (now new name)? Because when I was staying there a group of stewardeses who join me in the elevator suddenly blurted out to me, that they were afraid to go up to their rooms by themselves and they waited for any man to sort of accompany them... But I do have a bit of weird experience there.....
