BC Tam 2 Report post Posted March 27, 2011 Amazing ! V8-BLE brought us all the way to LHR earlier and this morning did the 20 minutes hop to and fro BKI And all the while I thought aircrafts are nowadays designed and tailored for specific missions to optimize operational ecomonics Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Waiping 12 Report post Posted March 31, 2011 (edited) Hi guys, Just wanted to share this. I took this photo on 1 April 2010 and recently got an e-mail from the Captain of this very same flight. They were on delivery from Idaho to Surabaya back then. Took about a week I think. According to him this plane is now registered as PK-ZMV and named "Veronica" but I couldn't find information on this. Then Now Edited March 31, 2011 by Waiping Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flee 5 Report post Posted April 13, 2011 (edited) Nice meeting you guys at BKI! It was definitely worthwhile trying to catch something in the changeable weather. This one came just a day after Waiping was wondering when he will get a chance to capture it! Thanks for showing me around BKI's diminishing spotting locations, Samuel and Waiping!

Samuel Chy 0 Report post Posted April 14, 2011 some shots of 12/04 arrival of 9M-AHQ with Francis onboard from Kuching Lotus departure Firefly then we move on to 3rd beach since the rain is stop and sun is shine, or switch-ed on? former MU bird with ETOPS certificate Niner Victor SABAH from Singapore this show that how complicated is the weather is, but it give us a great contrast! Niner MikeX4 and last but not least, there're lots of Charlie 130 flying in and out of BKI recently due to the MINDEF movement. if not mistaken their flight path is SZB-LBU-CBO-BKI-LBU?-SZB.
