Sri Ramani K. 0 Report post Posted September 9, 2010 Ramani, thanks for informing the new series of Ak birds. S2-AEH ? First time for me seeing her in KUL. Any idea when is this United Airways started service from Dhaka ? Wow! Now we have Biman, GMG plus United Airways. Looking at today's schedule in Flightstats arrival 4H 595 United Airways Bangladesh 2:00 AM M83 BG 86 Biman Bangladesh Airlines 4:00 AM 747 Z5 41 GMG Airlines 4:00 AM M80 You didn't wait for EVA Air 747F ah ? Chaity, I've seen the schedule of 4H coming into KUL on flightstats numerous times, but never saw the aircraft actually arrive or takeoff. I have only seen the MD-83 once, that also when I was at work only. Anyways, this is from their website, and no I didn't wait for the B744F because weather was bad with clouds getting very low 21 December, 2009Inaugural Flight Dhaka to Kuala Lumpur United Airways (BD) Ltd. a leading private sector airline founded by non-resident Bangladeshis, is starting its maiden Dhaka-Kuala Lumpur passenger flight on 21st December 2009. The first Dhaka-Kuala Lumpur flight of the airline is scheduled to take off from Dhaka for Kuala Lumpur with a 155-seat MD-83. This aircraft is built in the USA and is equipped with state of the art technologies and navigational equipment. It is also planning to procure Boeing 767-300 ER aircraft by mid 2010.” The one way special fare for Dhaka-Kuala Lumpur is Tk. 13751 and return fare is 22087 (inclusive of all taxes). Weekly two flights to Kuala Lumpur will be operated on Monday and Thursday and depart from Dhaka at 2100hrs. Guys is there an AK with Lotus tail? http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd154/waiping1216/NewImage.jpg Sorry for the poor quality. Using my handphone to snap this picture. Anyone know what is the rego? 9M-AFY. I was out waiting for this bird to take off, but it didn't materialize at all! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
