Waiping 12 Report post Posted January 8, 2011 (edited) "Sir, your limo to BKI is ready." Pardon the picture quality. The heat haze was pretty bad early afternoon. Btw, the Sabah Flying Club building next to T2 at BKI seems to be undergoing renovation. Hopefully can still continue to spot from there.

Waiping 12 Report post Posted January 12, 2011 I'll be in seat 16A! Any good location to catch its departure? Early morning around 10am? Normally it's runway 02 departure so you will get to see the T2 from your seat but morning not quite suitable to take picture from that side due to backlit. The spot where Sam caught the Lotus posted up there would probably best to catch a rotation shot. Need to climb a bit since got fence. Here is my favorite shot from that location. Currently my wallpaper. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Waiping 12 Report post Posted January 13, 2011 (edited) Firefly is not a low cost operator, therefore Tree number one is probable. I thought read somewhere that MH specifically mentioned Firefly as the LCC arm for them. Big MAC for a late lunch today! Does anyone know what aircraft is still?
