Raj 0 Report post Posted October 11, 2008 Nice shots there Brennan. Btw did u get the Antonov which was there a little over a week or two ago? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sanjay Thaker 0 Report post Posted October 11, 2008 (edited) Its always fun not knowing what to expect each day. LGK is now known for its strange visitors. We had the Antonov here about 10 days ago, an ATR 42 a few days back, 3 Piper Warriors from Singapore Youth Flying Club last week, not to mention the low overshoots and circuits by F111 two days back . Brennan has more, and i'm sure they're on the way.. Edited October 11, 2008 by Sanjay Thaker Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Muhd Hisyam 5 Report post Posted October 12, 2008 nice pic... Why dont have aerobridge at LGK?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sanjay Thaker 0 Report post Posted October 12, 2008 LGK is an island airport, and right from the time you step out of the aircraft, you get that free, easy going island atmosphere. Hence not having the aerobridge actually contributes to it. Its a very common sight to see the pax (especially foreigners) posing with the aircraft for a piece of memory. It gets better when MH sends in the once weekly A330. You can hear the camera's clicking away... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That was me on the right hand seat Capt and I both waved at your lens as we passed by, and you had to close the canopy of one of the training aircraft since both pilots were already strapped in and halfway taxing.
