The event was held at Malaysia Airlines hangar 6. We reached the hangar around 11am... the excitement of seeing the A350 was building up and many Malaysia Airlines staffs turned up to witness this new bird
Spotters bracing the rains for this special bird. Nothing gonna stop these ardent spotters

While Ong is volunteering to cover the water canon event, myself and Kevin were dropped off near the touch down point of runway 32L to get some decent landing shots
all smiles... before getting naughty...
Kevin was everywhere to tryout the spots...
Finally the beautiful JAL B789 appeared in our lens... I have always admire/amaze by those wing flex!
look at how thin the wing is as it pierces through the air

After the rain subsided, i was at Alpha 6 Runway 32R to catch Speedbird's arrival...
Edi decided to go Papi light there to catch the smoky landing
Some test shots... i can imagine catching the Speedbird in this condition
Dream on... that was when i heard on radio that the pilots requested for runway 33 instead of 32R.
So we quickly jumped on to the truck and rushed all the way to somewhere near Bunga Raya Complex... to catch a glimpse of her
and slowly she appeared in front of us
Must take pictures with the new plane as background
taxied past me gracefully
While the other team was busy taking her pictures

A week before the event, the Malaysianwings old farts had a dinner gathering... such a nice feeling to meet up & update each other's busy life... not to mention talking about the aviation projects that we plan to do in the future
on the day itself, before the plane arrives... we were already busy photographing...
group selfie in the car while enroute to Security premise at the airside
All smile and ready to go... what else can be better than spotting on airport on a slow Thursday afternoon
Taiko Azahan is all about business here... negotiating and discussing about the best spots for capturing the Speedbird
after the discussion was over... the weather went from this...
to heavy rain...
to heavy downpour
Plan whatever you want... but you can never beat mother nature...

I will let the pictures do the justice...
many spotters and aviation geeks are here to welcome the first A350 for Malaysia Airlines
coming in elegantly and those Rolls Royce are so quiet
Flare... the wings are massive but i personally still prefers Dreamliner's wings design
