  1. You might want to try this location.

     

    As you head towards the airport and head away from the Kenyalang Interchange flyover, keep to the left side of the road and lookout for Lorong Lapangan Terbang 5. Turn left into this lorong and drive straight until you reach the 5th lorong on your right. Turn in and drive till the end and turn left. You should have a clear view of the runway although it is a distance away. Alternatively try the new road located below this area which can be assessed from the traffic lights junction.

    OMG :yahoo: Finally a reply! I will try the route you mentioned. Thanks SO much! Are you a regular Kuching plane spotter?


  2. Hi, people. I'm sure this thread will help people especially for those who are new to spotting in Kuching. So, to all those usual KCH spotters or to anyone who knows the directions to a good spotting location, please post directions to them here. Thank you.

     

    Yesterday, I went to the airport to catch a glimpse of the 747 flight to Jeddah but got lost. Eventually, I ended up behind the Air Force Base and I couldn't get a very good view of the runway and the tarmac.

  3. as much as i would love it to be held in KCH, but i must agree that it is not a suitable location. KCH HAS traffic, it's not that slow, just moderate but the type of traffic and spotting location is an issue. we have very few airlines serving KCH here and mostly we get AK, MH, TR and maybe BI. so sadly, a no for KCH this year
