Waiping 12 Report post Posted February 9, 2009 (edited) Hi... these spots where you guys were being able to capture the departing traffic, how did you go past the barrier at the beach? Isn't there someone guarding it? Depends on luck. Most of time no problem. However there was one particularly day last year that I was "caught" twice and asked to leave the spot. Finally decided to leave when I saw a police car turning into the area. Edited February 9, 2009 by waiping Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

S V Choong 4 Report post Posted February 9, 2009 S V, The RMAF aircraft in the photo above was De Havilland D.H.114 Heron. Thanks Tamizi. It is not really one of the good looking planes around, again British design never seemed to click with me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
