Peter Smith 1 Report post Posted March 28, 2009 Ken, The Challenger 605 is owned by Vistajet from Salzburg, Austria. About 9months ago they set up a new base at Subang to cater for the booming asian market. Rayner, it is such a shame you can't capture in a photo the magic sound those 2 Rolls Royce darts must have made as you heard the F27 depart... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tamizi Hj Tamby 1 Report post Posted March 29, 2009 Question...where is the cargo door??? How do they load the cargo??? No door on the side??? It's on the rear left side side,Kenneth (since the 742F is a converted freighter)-If i'm not mistaken. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But today's weather was also sub-gloomy.. hope the sun would shine in soon. Here's my contribution on the f27 How I wished they know how to backtrack on the taxiway instead on the runway... I had to crop max for this!! I get to shoot on both side though Maskargo 742F came late.. Then this vista jet taxi by for departure back to szb. Shooting thru the fences.. manage to get a nose shot of this classic dumbo And some shot of her taxiing to runway 25 for her flight to HKG..Nope.. no sign of kueh lapis onboard Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
