I wanna go into that weather station and ask them what the hell are we doing there that is causing a problem to them !Morons !
I think our (jokers and non jokers) presence at WX can cause the temperature to rise so the weather men may be giving false weather readings to whoever. That's why I think they had been releasing weather baloons to get the correct temperature readings.
Just my kampung sense though.

Instead of buying SIA why don't he buy MAS. That will solve all his problems.
-
I was just wondering when every one of our neighbours is using the Bell Huey, why don't we? Why did we choose to be different? But if the Hueys are no more in production, no point then because buying second hand helicopters is out of the question.
-
Stupid question I guess. I don't follow helicopters very much, but is the Bell Huey still in use/production?

These are shots of 14R from a different perspective - inside a plane.

Please correct me if I am wrong. The Nuri is based on the S61 Sikorsky helicopter which is normally called Sea King elsewhere. From its name it is normally used at sea for ASW (Anti Submarine Warfare) and SAR (Search and rescue). From what I read only the Malaysian, Danish and Egyptian armed forces use them as troop transporters.
During the Falklands war the British army brought along their Westland Sea King primarily for ASW and SAR. Their troop transport helicopters were the Chinooks. But many of the Chinooks were destroyed by the Argentines leaving the British with no choice but to use the Sea Kings as transporters like what the Malaysian armed forces had been doing. The Brits won the war, didn't they?

From the Middle East..
Mana Imran?
Ouch!

Guys, the picture of Kwek applying the sun tan taken by Emperor Jonathan is easily the best post in this thread. But if you all go back to the beginning you'll see that I was the first person to post Kwek's photo (post No. 12 - sorry for the quality, using my Sony Digicam). So I deserve credit too.
From the moment I met Kwek I know he is a hilarous person, God bless him!
-
When the picture was taken I'd already left. But at least now I know who is who.

My contribution...
Pieter and Kwek enjoying every moment..
Follow the leader! While you all were spotting planes I was spotting these. Maybe my mind was still on the burning Police truck.
Never forget my own AK
I think many of you missed these...
China 330
And Kuwait 340
It was fun with you guys around. Bye for now.

AFAIK it was the idea of our (Negeri Sembilan) former Executive Councillor (EXCO) in charge of Tourism. He had been replaced. It looks like the new fella has different ideas.
-
I don't bother. Seeing them flying around is satisfying enough. If they use our fuel and maybe pay parking fees that's money to the country. What about service facilities?

I went to the weather station yesterday. Made a stop at the pond first to catch some arrivals. Since they all touched down at 14L I post their photos here.

Gavin, the Biman took off from 14L ot 14R? I was passing through Elite on the way to Shah Alam yesterday. I saw arrivals were on 14L with one MH 737 arriving on 14R.

Well, Gerd Muller once a feared German football striker wore the No.13 jersey and he scored lots and lots of goals.
-
Anybody knows how much does MAB charge parking fees, if there's any for the private jets? -
Just a layman's idea. Now that we are having a plane to repaint why not paint it in special colours, not like Hibiscus or Heliconia, but for VMY07 or 50 years of Merdeka. Then we spotters have something to look forward too other than the barge, Star Alliance, Sari girl....
