Penang (WMKP/PEN) 2009

Recommended Posts

New year, hence a new thread. Been a very quiet start to the new year here in Penang. Weather has been OK for the past few days but there just weren't any interesting subjects, until today... finally.

 

CX692 operated by A340-300 B-HXE.

Well, it's not too late to wish all of you a very Happy New 2009 and may more interesting subjects fly into PEN!

It is located Just beside the excavation side, you just have to find a way into that area, it is not too hard to find to access road. You can drive you car all the way in there.
