Maybe the organiser is so 'kedekut' to provide extra hotac to RMAF personnel. I was told that even pilots have to share their rooms in LGK, what more the privates and corporals .......... SAD ....

MIR 2 Report post Posted March 24, 2013 (edited) It's nice of them giving a flypass over AOR, back in 2009 the B-52 also made a Flee is right. It's similar back in 2011 whereby some participating aircraft departed LGK to elsewhere at the end of the day. Even non participating aircraft need to depart immediately after dropping off passengers and goods except for head of states aircraft. I remember the last time, there was a participating Learjet and Typhoon left LGK at the end of the opening day in 2011 and they came back again the next day around 0900. The passanger terminal was also very busy early morning on the first and second day as high rank officials and tycoons jetting in before the exhibition starts. Their aircraft arrives,doors open for a few minutes and off the planes go either to PEN or SZB to wait. Edited March 24, 2013 by MIR Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mohd Idham 0 Report post Posted August 28, 2013 Hello Guys, I was present at AOR today (28-Aug-2013), proving flight of 777...btw, thanks T.Ahmad for reminding me. :-) Weather was awful. Visibility approx. 1 km only, low over-shoot and circuit landing was disapproved by ATC. Flight was delay about 2.0hours, but it worth the wait. hihi...:-) Tower has no visibility until very final moment before touch down. Pilots visible with runway lights at 3nm from touch down. First touch down of a mighty 777 on Alor Setar soil. Malindo's ATR holding short at Taxiway Hotel. Showing her massive inboard flaps and spoilers Back-track runway 22 Some locals fooling around... *the truth is, they are DCA's staff...haha... Close-up, no TK. Entering bay #1 via Juliet. Then, I quickly went down from Tower, go to the other side of terminal building to get closer look. *Thanks for viewing guys. Wait for the official Hajj Flight on 9th September.
