Great Shots there MD Salleh. That Indonesian Air FORCE 732 is certainly very very RARE! Fantastic Catch. I think it should be a test flight.

Hi everyone,

 

An ex-Emirates A330-200 should be getting painted at SZB in the Virgin Australia livery. Has anyone seen it?

 

Cheers,

Will

Yeap, they're slowly rebranding to Virgin Australia now last time i heard.

Has anyone in Malaysia seen an all white Virgin Blue/Australia A330 floating around? It is apparently having a paint job done for it's unveiling in Australia prior to the Virgin Australia launch. Apparently it is currently being painted in Subang, Malaysia, it's rego is VH-XFB.

 

Much Appreciated! :)

Does anyone know if it has been painted yet? Maybe a little peak? ;)

Hopefully it would look lovely in the new (yet to be revealed) Virgin Australia livery. Does anyone know that date when it will fly to Australia?

 

thanks, soorox

Love the first shot! Reminds me of the glory days when jet engines instead of turboprops roamed SZB. Is the Saudi T7 the same one that was captured a few months ago?

Here is some news on Virgin Australia (there is a new logo): http://www.flightglobal.com/blogs/wings-down-under/2011/04/photo-virgin-australia-logo-revealed.html

 

Will be going to SZB later today and I am hoping there will be surprises. :)

Today we had some very important guests from Japan spotting at SZB for the first time. Suzuki san (front row middle) was in town! :) Starting off with a beer for good luck:

We had the usual Transmile, 9M-TGG:

And the usual SZB corporate jet traffic. Here we see A6-MBH, a Bombardier CL-600-2B16 Challenger 604:

And loads of Firefly ATR-72s, here we see 9M-FYC:

Our guests were beginning to get a little bored with the ATRs when this (N707MQ) appeared out of nowhere!:

Later on, there was another surprise. But I guess I will let Suzuki san show you that himself!

 

We then adjourned for dinner, feeling that the afternoon at SZB was an afternoon well spent! More beers and Malaysian food!
