Photos from KCH (11/06 and 14/06).Pardon for the quality!

 

11/06 (Sat)

 

Shortly after disembarking from the aircraft,i've suddenly saw this:

5838228404_e78cefa9c2_z.jpg

 

It's the Team Lotus jet; what a sight.

 

On 14/06 (Tue),as me and my dad had to return to SBW on the first flight due to the emergency at SBW (my flight was supposed to be MH3702,which departs on 1710,but we've decided to abandon that plan,and purchase a set of new tickets instead (my aunt joins us as well).The flight was MH3692,departs KCH on 0610 and landed at SBW on 0655.

 

This 734 still sleeping,while her other sister are getting readied for work.

Ashmil, it's really only a small number of less than 4 people actually bothered about any anniversary here haha. Having known a larger one was held in WMKK and Szb, it is feels only right to contribute something on this part of the country just to make Malaysianwings anniversary feel nationwide or even worldwide :p The weather was rather slow moving from being cloudy to late sunny so we decided to go for some spotting to warm up our dust covered gears that was left un-clicked for quite sometime.

 

Our first target sounded rather usual, it is the only Citation X ever owned in Malaysia, so I guess since I've never really got a chance getting a decent shot of her, I smiled, 9M-ATM.. I guess our thick faced Chief Minister is coming in from somewhere. Looking through our viewfinders, something felt not right with the profile of the aircraft we were looking at. Rather stubby looking head on, we thought this couldn't be a Citation X and looked into each other.. asking "could this be...." and yes it was!!

 

The brand new Taxpayer funded 4th Business Jet for Hornbill Skyways, Bombardier 605 Challenger bearing the same registration from the Citation X

Haha, the light came very late today, hence a not very promising shot for that challenger, but we will meet again someday :rolleyes:

 

We were also crossing our fingers for that new livery of Batavia air, only to be greeted by the usual, but it wasn't a total let down as the registration is somewhat new to us, makes us wonder how many unknown number of B737 do they have up their sleeves? Sorry for the quality :blink:

Light was superb much later in the afternoon, as seen on this Malaysian new workhorse with it's not so new dress for MH

It's low cost sister company carrier also paraded under the beautiful weather spotlight :yahoo:

OKay, nothing new from Airasia, light was deteriorating as sunset is just around the corner

Our main dish came in late, but showered in golden rays of sunset glory, a bittersweet feeling ;)

Enjoy guys, and happy Anniversary late one day from us here in Kuching :p

and what a catch of the "new" ATM.... should be "proud" since our RM in it... :finger:

 

Not just that Uncle Norman; It is also bought using RMs from the vast land and forests of Sarawak 'robbed' by them :finger: :angry:
