    Thanks Victor.
  2. Thanks flee. I was wondering if there would be an anjung tinjau in the new terminal too. Haven't seen any mention of it so far. The old A & W outlet on the first floor of the old terminal before its previous renovation was always a good spot. Pity that disappeared.

    Close to Butterworth again this morning and got a few shots. 20120322-IMG_7433 by Janner88, on Flickr 20120322-IMG_7441 by Janner88, on Flickr 20120322-IMG_7426 by Janner88, on Flickr Weather was a bit better than the last visit.
  5. Spotted on Flightradar24 this afternoon. KLM on airtest?
  6. Thanks MIR. I was not aware of Cobra Gold.
  7. A surprising morning at PEN today! I arrived just before 8am to see if I could get Perdana 2. Thanks for the heads-up MIR. That came down the approach just before 8.15am with the sun only just appearing. 20120218-IMG_7314 by Janner88, on Flickr 20120218-IMG_7321 by Janner88, on Flickr It departed, on Rwy 22, around 9.37am. About 15 minutes later. this little Thai registered ultra-light came in. 20120218-IMG_7341 by Janner88, on Flickr 20120218-IMG_7345 by Janner88, on Flickr Ten minutes after that landed, AW139, 9M-YTL, came in. 20120218-IMG_7350 by Janner88, on Flickr 20120218-IMG_7352 by Janner88, on Flickr A couple of the other arrivals: 20120218-IMG_7288 by Janner88, on Flickr 20120218-IMG_7332 by Janner88, on Flickr Interesting 45 Minutes! As I was working on the computer around 12.25pm today, I heard a helicopter passing overhead Batu Ferringhi. When I checked out of the window, I saw what looked very much like a CH53 heading NW towards Langkawi. Anyone got info on that?
  8. Thanks guys. It was good weather yesterday. Hot as well!
  9. My first visit to PEN this morning. All the usual arrivals with one exception. Wasn't expecting to see this PDRM Kingair. 20120212-IMG_7164 by Janner88, on Flickr A few of the others. 20120212-IMG_7226 by Janner88, on Flickr 20120212-IMG_7283 by Janner88, on Flickr 20120212-IMG_7210 by Janner88, on Flickr 20120212-IMG_7189 by Janner88, on Flickr 20120212-IMG_7181 by Janner88, on Flickr

    Was near Butterworth this morning and managed to catch a SU-30 and Hawk 108 on approach. As you can see, the weather was not good. Quite heavy rain for the Hawk approach. 20120112-IMG_6839 by Janner88, on Flickr 20120112-IMG_6846 by Janner88, on Flickr Sorry for the poor quality.
  11. Andy, a belated welcome to the forum. Good to see you here.
  12. Good photos everyone. A few of mine from yesterday to add to the pot. 20111210-IMG_6009 by Janner88, on Flickr 20111210-IMG_6701 by Janner88, on Flickr The 'Bandits'. Good display guys! 20111210-IMG_6102 by Janner88, on Flickr 20111210-IMG_6188 by Janner88, on Flickr 20111210-IMG_6258 by Janner88, on Flickr 20111210-IMG_6335 by Janner88, on Flickr 20111210-IMG_6487 by Janner88, on Flickr 20111210-IMG_6527 by Janner88, on Flickr 20111210-IMG_6606 by Janner88, on Flickr 20111210-IMG_6609 by Janner88, on Flickr Thanks for looking.
  13. MIR, really excellent photos. Thanks for posting them. I hope to get something similar on Saturday.
  14. I was at PEN last night collecting some visitors and spotted something lurking in the shadows just to the north of the new terminal extension. Went back with the camera this morning and saw this Kamov Ka-32S of Avialift parked with all the covers and ties in place. 20111208-IMG_5857 by Janner88, on Flickr In for LIMA, or another reason?
  15. Surely not! The renovation of this driveway was only completed at the beginning of last month when it was re-opened. Looking at the date of the article in the link it reads 2011/04/01. Hopefully, the problems that this rebuilding gave are now a thing of the past.
  16. MIR, S M Tang, great photos. Thanks for sharing. Looks like AI missed a good show.
  17. Pieter, thanks. Considering that MTD was only delivered in July this year, I thought it was dirty as well. Raymund, You are welcome. I would like to know why this aircraft came into PEN though.
  18. Raymund, I have just checked flight24.com for the listings of MAS flights on which this aircraft operated. From that listing, it seems that MTD was operating MH136, Adelaide to KL on the day (15.11.11) I took that photo. Does anyone know if there were there problems at KL that meant this aircraft had to divert to PEN? BTW, it's the first time that I have seen any aircraft wearing the new colours arrive at PEN.
  19. Sorry Pieter. Another "senior moment"!! Had forgotten to post here so will attach a few now. 20111115-IMG_5734 by Janner88, on Flickr 20111115-IMG_5802 by Janner88, on Flickr 20111115-IMG_5756 by Janner88, on Flickr This B744 came very close to a Brahimy Kite during its approach. 20111115-IMG_5724 by Janner88, on Flickr Was not expecting to see the A330 wearing the new colours scheme which arrived just before 4pm. Light was not good at all either so had to increase the ISO speed to get a reasonable shot. I am still not sure about the new MAS colour scheme. Maybe it will grow on me. 20111115-IMG_5819 by Janner88, on Flickr
  20. Was at PEN until 4.30pm and then had to leave. No sign of the CAF CC-105 up to then. Did catch this earlier though. 20111115-IMG_5701 by Janner88, on Flickr Have a few more to edit yet so will post them probably tomorrow. They include an unscheduled A330.
  21. Very good photos Victor. Thanks for posting. I went over yesterday hoping to catch something but there were no movements while I was there.
  22. Norman, great catches on the VC10 and Orion. The other photos are good as well. KS, I like your VC10 shot also. Must have been a dull day for the firemen. We should all have water pistols like that!!
  23. Nice catches on the Orion and the VC10. Just checked my log, XV108 carried me from the UK to Cyprus on posting, 12 Sep 72! Happy daze!!!
  24. Thanks for the comments guys. Much appreciated. Michael Y, Thanks for the link to the special scheme. I wondered if it might be tied in with the squadron's 70th anniversary. Also bookmarked your blog to read through.
