MIR 2 Report post Posted August 15, 2011 (edited) we spotted a C130 somewhere near sky park or Airod last Thursday. is that possible is belongs to Philippine Air Force? Yerp that's the C-130H destined for Philippine Air Force. Former Tunisian Air Force(TS-MTA). Wow..theres a Comlux Malta A319 too! Guys, look out for a USAF VIP plane at SZB...might be a Gulfstream C-37. USAF Chief of Staff is in KL. He's visiting Kuantan airbase tomorrow and expected to depart back to US on Wednesday.

Rob 0 Report post Posted August 17, 2011 I'm just curious, given the runway length at Subang I wonder why you needed flaps? Was it hot when you took off? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Raj 0 Report post Posted September 7, 2011 There might be some US Navy a/c movements at SZB this week. Aircraft carrier USS John C. Stennis (CVN-74) and three other Carrier Strike Group 3 warships are at Port Klang. Yeap saw it from the air when flying over Port Klang. Deck was full of aircraft. Saw 2 grey hounds on deck and a whole heap of fighters. On another note. Air Nuigini's F100 P2-AFH/ANH is currently in Subang for Mx with Airod. There are 3 MH B734's in SZB and 9M-MQC has had its Tail Logo Removed and a temp sticker for its registration sticked on. I suspect this will be the first 734 leaving the fleet. Also 2 ex Mas Wings F50 are bound to a new Operator. Can't confirm exactly the name of the company, but it was something along the lines of My Travel. Will try to get a shot of it next time.
