Yes, BERNAMA reporter together with me at the Tower, and nicely chit chatting with him about plane spotting. Asked him to change immediately to 200mm or longer lens because i notice on his D3s body was 50mm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mohd Idham 0 Report post Posted September 9, 2013 Hi guys, below are series of photos from today's flight. Enjoy. :-) *A little info about this flight: Total fuel of 7.1 tons bring from PEN. POB of 295 - largest number of POB ever recorded at AOR Lead pilot is local Kedahan, Datuk Kapten Mohd Fauzi. All ground support equipment bring from KUL. Bomba upgrade from CAT6 to CAT9. Departure time 1305hrs. Flight time 8 hours 15min to MED. Ground crew are working hard to prepare the flight. Including foods, drinks and snacks. After an ATC clearance to MED, MH8008 were cleared for pushback and start. A pair of Kedah & Malaysian flags were placed at cokcpit's windows. Commemorating inaugural direct flight AOR - MED. Lucky for me, Tower asked pushback and facing south, direct to me. hihi. Enter runway, back-track for runway 22, hold position after line-up 5 min at runway 22 to dismantle flags. All airbone plane hold position 10 mins . And, here it comes, with all the rumble from both Trents, superb sound track.... Rotates, there it goes, fly all 279 passengers to holy land. Semoga beroleh Haji yg mabrur. See you again in 45 days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
