Wow... Just wow.. Great coverage guys. New year, new airline popped up at BKI. Testing the water before moving in to T1 i suppose.

Anybody managed to get hands on Malindoair's iOS app? It's touted on their website but i cant search for it on appstore? One more thing anyone had any experience travelling on Malindo air with infant? How was it? Thanks...

Was flying through BKI last week and noticed this aircraft trans air B732F who's apparently long way from home in Hawaii.

links bro?

Not familiar with aircraft systems but some 'experts' are questioning how the missile/high velocity object that brought mh17 down can straight away shut the CVR and FDR power supply at 1st hit. Anyone?

If i'm not mistaken 9m mpr also was painted in Malaysia Airlines title instead of MasKargo.. Does all of the maskargo 744F now painted in same titles?

My profession have some perks that allowed me to indulge in my aviation passion. Yesterday 30th August I was the medical team standby for YAB Deputy Prime Minister on his arrival to BKI and then on to Sipitang for Pesta Gasing Sabah. Here are the pics I managed to capture using my phone. sorry forthe quality. The private jet of the DPM. Sight of 9M-GSA Gading Sari 733F. Will upload the pics from my medivac trip to Kota Marudu using Sabah Air Helicopter once I got the time...Cheers

The latest one on the region to use F50 was the Pacific Royale. I believe the concept was same, boutique airline. Offered full meal on board but only lasted a few months and now missing without a trace after only a few months into operation. I sure hope Rayani won't really use the F50s on BKI-MKZ route. I can barely stand my last flight on F50 1 hour flight TWU-BKI. Claustrophobic...

Any idea when will they send back the leased -8FZs..the ones without ptv on board?

Same here. Really reassuring knowledge sharing from an experienced head. Continue praying for MH370..

Glad I have fellow health care personnel here in MW. This almost always happens during a disaster/loss of lives. All finger pointings usually directed to us.

LNG down due to some kinda 'leaking door' as described by one of the OD staff at BKI. My wife was supposed to be on the flight but canceled thus the unusual 2 OD flights arrival within 1 hour of each other. One of it was the rescue flight.

If I'm not mistaken, u earn Elite Miles on MAswings if you travel on Business, and L class miles on Maswings won't be credited to your Enrich, as apparently it's the basement/promo price. Got all these info last July when I went to their office @ KL Sentral to claim my missing miles.

and no OD jets idling around this time...high season for travelling... and if you'd notice, MH 734s are almost always put at the odd gate numbers,meaning hidden away from Anjung Tinjau viewers.

The thing is they've been waiting for 777 since 1997, delayed delivery due to recession and all and actually replaced the initial order with 737s. Strange that you're expecting something but not being ready for it. But from what I heard they'll deploy them on Australia route. Yes. What I meant was its not CGK wasnt ready for 77W, It's just that GIA has been promoting 77W with new route to London served by this type. Quite a blot in otherwise a very strong few years for GIA. Expanding and rebranding, 77W delivery is the crowning achievement after the long wait.

So they bought an aircraft that can't fully operate from their own homebase to their newly and heavily promoted destination with heavily promoted new product?? Can't imagine if MAS did the same mistake.

That's why I now only fly on MH/OD...no more hassle of having to take bus from LCCT to KL/Salak Selatan..

Flying BKI-KUL-BKI end of July...after I paid online for the ticket only I noticed the flights I'm booked on are on MH 734s...could be my last ever flights on them..

Exactly..

Really? didnt noticed that. But if you see the first flight ex BKI is now departing at 11am and the last flight ex BKI is now departing at 8pm instead of the usual 1020pm.

2 things ... I noticed from their booking engine the KUL-BKI route is now reduced to 2x/day and KCH-KUL 3x/day.. and this morning (6am) I saw a Malindo aircraft RON @ BKI parked at the remote gate. around A10-A11.

9M-MLF as MH 2134 for 2pm ish flight to BKI today grounded, cancelled flight.rescue flight @ 1040pm. 9M-FZA to KCH today departed with squadrons from Ops Daulat @ 1800hrs. will post photo soon..

am flying with them today, so nervous they might retime it.keep calling the Call Centre and so far they say is ON TIME...

chicken pox is highly contagious during the 1-2 days before the eruptions until all the vesicles are crusted over. We don't know which phase of the chicken pox was and also if there's any medical personnel that dictates the decision of AK in vietnam.

Out of curiosity any 74SP still flying to KUL apart from the Iranian?
