Andi C 0 Report post Posted July 23, 2011 Saw A330 9M-MT* landing @ RWY20 around 1630ish. I presumed MH2616 from KUL. Is that a regular Saturday feature nowadays? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Waiping 12 Report post Posted July 24, 2011 S.M.Tang, remember to ask your tour guide to where Yangjie shot the SA 74F Haha, bro don't be so critical about the angle lah. From the picture can pretty much know where the location is based on the Fire & Rescue unit building at the back. The area may be a restricted area. Maybe can drop by and have a look as long as not wearing yellow shirt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mushrif A 3 Report post Posted July 29, 2011 True ....... BUT ......... Permanently contracted to PM's dept ....... end result is still the same, 'RAKYAT DIDAHULUKAN' will be paying the bills ........... No, what the then-PM said wasn't true. It does belong to the government via a convoluted arrangement involving the likes of PMB, Khazanah & MoF Inc. The then-PM was just suffering some brain-fade when he said that the plane does not belong to the government. Belongs to PMB (Penerbangan Malaysia Berhad) now, a vehicle set up by the Malaysian govt under the finance ministry to facilitate financial rescue of MAS like a decade or so ago. Was originally with the RMAF though You mixing up the BBJ with the 319CJ. The aircraft that is and still is with the RMAF is the BBJ, which was previously with MH. The 319CJ was never with the RMAF.

flee 5 Report post Posted July 29, 2011 Thanks, Li Ren. Great to catch some rare movement once in a while. Great A321 catches Waiping. The A321 is the best looking aircraft in the A320 family as the fuselage is longer and more elegant. The A318 is the cutest! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
