Pieter C. 5 Report post Posted December 8, 2011 Excited already to visit this site next month !!! How many mm-lens you need for this ? Sun-positionwise also excellent spot... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Huynh Tran Bao Duy 0 Report post Posted December 9, 2011 This place is very good for spotting aviation, I use Nikon D90 with Lens 70-300mm VR. I always use at 300mm because the distance is quite far from this location. It's better if you have lens 400mm or above. I hope I can join spotting with you at next month.

Pieter C. 5 Report post Posted December 19, 2011 Great landing shot of Hongkong Airlines A330F !!! So, landings and take-offs mainly from the 07 runways ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nguyen Vu Loc 0 Report post Posted December 20, 2011 (edited) So, landings and take-offs mainly from the 07 runways ? Pieter: This time of the year the monsoon wind changes direction till February, Use of RWY07R&L are predominant but ATC can change to RWY25 for easing workload whenever tailwind subsides since there is only ILS approach to RWY25. #1 B772 SQ173 now leaving SGN 1 hour earlier (12:05PM) to allow pax. catch connecting flights #2 B773 CX morning arrival, reversing engines on RWY07L #3 B772 AF144 new Saturday schedule flight to SGN. AF is now flying daily to SGN on their own aircraft #4 AF use B77W to SGN on Sunday and mostly B772 on the other days Waiting for your arrival Edited December 20, 2011 by Nguyen Vu Loc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Peter Smith 1 Report post Posted December 24, 2011 Do the Fokker 70's operate any services out of SGN? Sorry, should have read "regular" services out of SGN, particularly on Sunday's. Looking on the VN website, it doesn't present many. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
