KC Sim 2 Report post Posted August 4, 2011 My dear Malaysian friends ... if only you know how jealous we are when we see you folks having all that home-based special liveries, all those wonderful Middle-eastern traffic, special liveried planes from Gulf Air, Etihad, all those great stuff of unimaginable liveries going in and out of Subang. But thanks to Mwings, we too are able to enjoy them ... of course with our skins turning into a shade of green. Keep those great shots coming ... and if you can, please send A6-EYE to SIN sometime please. KC Sim Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KC Sim Hey KC Sim, I just checked Changi Airport and was surprised that only Qatar, Emirates and Etihad Airways fly into Singapore. I though there could have been more. With whole host of freebies KLIA dishes out for new airlines, it is no wonder more ME airlines fly to KLIA. No worries, A6-EYE will fly to Singapore some time/ any time now.

S M Tang 0 Report post Posted August 16, 2011 (edited) Being one of the very first plane I caught when I started plane spotting, Mike Mike Xray will always have a special place in my heart. Past: Current: Caught the Lotus bird head on and also from the back in BKI. Now seen from port. All I need now is the starboard view. EK's B77W from Melboune. My first time catching a Qatari plane in the air. My catch of the day Edited August 16, 2011 by S M Tang Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chaity 1 Report post Posted August 17, 2011 SM Tang, spotting 2 days in a row and 14L actions welcoming you. Today's weather was quite good towards the afternoon in PJ area. I would expect KUL also the same. You should try some 14L smoky landing shots in the afternoon. Good catch for United Airways. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would expect KUL also the same. You should try some 14L smoky landing shots in the afternoon. Good catch for United Airways. It just so happened that I had to send/pickup someone from the airport in the past two days. Gonna make it 3 days in a row tomorrow, sadly, it'll be at night. May I know the location for the smoky landing shots? good catch of the United.... btw.... 9M-AFJ was my ride from AOR last night.... on time departure but arrived KUL 15min early...
