S. Huang 0 Report post Posted January 30, 2009 (edited) I love nostalgia... I recall seeing a center-fold advertisement regularly in the Asia Travel Trade magazine that my dad used to bring home from work in the 70s. The ad basically depicted a scene onboard the brand new DC10s with 2 pairs of seats facing each other and a table between them and the MH crew serving meals to the 4 happy passengers. Does anybody recall that? And more importantly, does anyone still have pictures of that ad? If so, please please please scan it and post it here. I really miss that ad so much.

Rozhan 0 Report post Posted January 31, 2009 (edited) To complement MIN's timetable pics and on request for things retro by S Huang, here is a small selection from my archives. Monochrome MAS DC10 brochure. Circa 1978. The 'unique' being the less seats and more crew. Plus the swivel seats. General brochure about MAS. Circa 1977. Guess who is / was the stewardess pictured here One other picture... Flying buffet.....and free flow liquor......hmmm 9M-MHK The building that had to be sold when MAS 'almost' went belly-up Next are from MAS' B747-200 product brochure: The plane Emmm...seronoknya naik MAS What snekbox?? ....and to wash it all down...., and take some home The old Golden Lounge Finally some shots from the book 'Alam Keemasan MAS' or the Golden World of MAS, a publication commemorating 10 years of MAS. I also have a mug to commemorate the occasion, must be somwhere in the cabinet. BTW, another coffeetable book was published some 15 years later called Airborne (but too many pages lah) Edited January 31, 2009 by Rozhan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rozhan 0 Report post Posted January 31, 2009 Normala Samsudin! Orang kampung gue tuh. Very impressive and handsome collection there Rozhan, even the pages are all still firm. Yes Azizul. Normala she is. (for those not familiar, she was a TV3 celebrity, who later married a politician and now Datin Seri Normala) OK, continued... Some of the publications came in this nice folder with the distinctive 'wau' of the past And to wrap things up for now, one final item... a golden club class menu for a special routing. Hope you enjoyed them, a peek from the glorious past of MAS. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

S. Huang 0 Report post Posted February 2, 2009 Holy Molly!!!! What a rare collection! And yes, I remember the swivel seats on the DC10... there's one where the family is playing games at the table (featured in your brochure), and there's also another one of them having a meal. Those old photos really bring back great memories...and one can't suddenly feeling old Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Look at the seats, the food...top class all the way.....so sad...dont have the opprtunity to savour the bygone days of air travel..... Kenneth, you are not the only one. I grew up browsing through travel magazines and inflight magazines of all the airlines that my dad used to take home after his business trips. I would spend all my time examining each picture of airline interiors and wishing I could fly in them, and very often, at the expense of doing my homework My love for aviation grew as I got older, and eventually joined Singapore Airlines. It was then that I momentarily lost my passion for aviation. After I left the company, all the excitement and joy came flowing back into my veins... and a website like MW and photos by Rozlan are truly the reasons why I continue to love airplanes and everything related to it. The romance of travel needn't be lost... it just takes a little more effort to find them nowadays... (and here's a shameless plug of how to relive the romance even in the miserable Y class products on today's carriers...heheh... For those who have read this report before, no harm reading it again lah... ) http://www.airliners.net/aviation-forums/t...ead.main/133128 Edited February 2, 2009 by S.

Rozhan 0 Report post Posted February 2, 2009 (edited) Glad to share guys. These are some of what little I have about MAS. Although some of them were meant to advertise MAS, they are in fact documented history of the airline. Same goes with timetables, magazines etc. Do collect them for the pleasure they give in years to come. Indeed Ashmil. Menu cards, however simple, should continue to be printed. It is so much pleasurable choosing one's meal from browsing through one, and one can get to know what's available for them on board. I have several more from First, Business and Economy class which I have posted some years back (but deleted from photobucket). Faizal, at least the colours then were pleasing to the eyes. I think the old floral patterns on the early B737-200s were much nicer Yes Khaled. Even 40 minutes domestic flights up to the mid 1980s were great in terms of inflight products compared to nowadays. Sandwiches for economy class, nasi lemak or satay for first class. Sometimes meatballs were served. Even the B737-200 washroom oozes class.... pax were provided Elizabeth Arden EDT, moisturizer, little bars of soap, cotton towels in orange or lime colours, little combs in green sleeves. The last I noticed of MAS were Aigner stuff on widebody premium class only. I suppose this still continues. Walter, Kenneth..... how I wish you got to sample MAS during the golden age of air travel. I have fond memories of the good times. Inflight products were much, much nicer indeed. MAS never needed any 5-star award or things like that. Ryan, the spiral staircase was there I'll try to take pics from another coffeetable book and post some other time. It is quite tedious to upload to photobucket one by one. If I try the bulk uploader, the webpage would 'hang'! More later Min. I'll try to dig my old MAS stuff... some under piles of boxes. Certain things now no longer available include matchboxes! Thanks for the info Capt Radzi. She looks very stunning in the kebaya uniform. S. Huang, no lah... not old. As they say, age is just a number Edited February 2, 2009 by Rozhan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
