[Pieter C. 5]

Great action shots, guys !!!

 

SZB has (some) more interesting traffic recently than KUL...

[Cornelis Boersma 0]

All you guys... wow!! Beautiful shots! Superb!

 

Btw, Transmilde MD11 in background.. not anymore at the place they have been waiting for their faith for years. Going to be active again?

[S M Tang 0]

Still no ETA for the E-4B?

BUSTER 5 making ground contact at 1324LT.

 

 

Hoping for better shots on its departure.

It's here already?! Oh man.. Missed it. How did you know when it was arriving? Great catch of a rare plane!

 

Are there any other planes accompanying it?

[S M Tang 0]

Wow.. That's up-close and personal! Where will it be parked? TUDM or the same place Hillary Clinton's plane was parked?

[MIR 2]

Consolation prize in the next few days...Bill Clinton due to arrive either on 11th or 12th November.

guys, if the E-4B is at Subang, what is the plane that is currently at KLIA then? O.o

 

just came back from a business trip to penang, and on the way to the LCCT, saw the E-4B parked next to the Raiders plane.

 

any ideas?

Interesting... Maybe it's like AF1 where they travel in pairs. Did you see any C-17's there? If there was indeed another E-4B in KUL, where did the SECDEF disembark from?

[Waiping 12]

Maybe he used the Proton Persona seen in the photo...

come to think of it no, but there was a fleet of charter busses waiting for passengers i presume.

Perhaps there's several E-4Bs in this region at the moment because POTUS will be arriving in Jakarta today. High level of USAF movements around South East Asia since the past few days. Yesterday,about six C-17s overflew Malaysia to Jakarta Halim and U-Tapao received thirteen C-17s. One of the Boeing VC-25 could also be on stand by around Malaysia/Singapore. Similar situation like the VC-25 which went to BKI in 2000, while Air Force One was in Brunei.

and when i was shooting this... they didn't seems to bother at all

Come to think of it, it makes sense. I remember when POTUS was in S'pore, there were quite a few USAF planes in KUL. For all we know, VC-25 might be coming into SZB too! That'll probably be my spotting highlight, to capture VC-25.

Another E-4B was detected in the skies today, perhaps the one you saw most likely 73-1676 operating as "HUGE 25".

 

Reported that the C-17 which arrived SZB today operated as "Reach357". Rumoured that five C-17s will overfly Malaysia tomorrow from U-Tapao to Jakarta Halim.

Woooww....that's a lot of C-17s flying around above us this few days and not to mention the number of E-4Bs and the likes of An-124s. Thanks MIR for the info.

USAF Gulfstream C-20C (85-0049) operating as "SAM50049", attached to 89th ALW Andrews AFB.

It departed VABB with the VC-25s on 07/11, most likely this one came in either from VIDP or WIHH

Busty25 (E4B) departed Subang at 09:18 am via runway 33, subang radar one departure.

Rotation was in front of Arafah Restaurant. 3 spotters got it. spotter name MDSaleh has the most perfect,level and sharp picture.

Congratulation to him. By the way, Busty25 took off with endurance in excess of 20 hours. that's what you call long haul.

 

Update: Reach 357 (C17) just departed Subang at 10:16 am.

You mean the E-4B departed already?! That's a pretty short trip for the SECDEF.

not only the SECDEF made a short trip, even the POTUS is spending only 24hrs in Indonesia. after all no point for the SECDEF to spend so much time in KUL and they're not here for sightseeing...

Woke up at 0600.

Left my house at 0700.

Hoping the E-4B to go...Once i reach subang airport road, E-4B no longer at Cargo apron.

So maybe at RMAF Subang apron...

 

Clearance received for Busty 25.

Line up runway 33....heavy take off..

 

Bye Bye Busty 25...
