Do enjoy.. comments welcomed.. critics.. most welcome This taken at Gimpo Intl.. for my domestic flight to Jeju Island. Was rushing to the gates and manage to snap snap in a rush too.. =) Nice transit shuttle eh.. reminds me of the old Subang ones.. At first, i thought these were lost pax ehhe.. but they are the good old cleaners for Korean Air..Cun or not ? And oh my.. what a beautiful livery.. for Jeju Island.. After pushbacks..and taxiing for a very shot while, i never knew my flight causes this jam All the babies are scolding.. move it Big AirButts... Boy are they fast trailing my tail for immediate T/O We're rolling rolling.. and Gimpo is the name of the domestic airport here eh...?? Okay.. airborne.. but luckily there's this nice A330 wingtips.. As we're bout to land.. i notice this odd looking flap.. as if somethings missing..yes no? A330 pilots anyone?? And another look at it at touchdown.. nice speedbrakes.. And.. woow.. nice FAT.. Never seen her before with my own eyes.. And she's got dirty tails.. need butt wash.. Okay.. thats first partlah.. too long to post all up here..

Denny Yen 0 Report post Posted February 10, 2006 Jaeju/Cheju/Jeju island is very beautiful...it was the setting for "Winter Sonanta" drama. 20years ago, it was so dull, mainly fishing villages. No one could have imaged how it will turn out to be today. It is also a notorious paradise for casinos hostess clubs...a place for officials to launder money from kickbacks.

Denny Yen 0 Report post Posted February 11, 2006 (edited) And.. woow.. nice FAT.. Never seen her before with my own eyes.. FAT = Far-eastern Air Transport Co. - a Taiwanese carrier which serves mainly domestic. They have int'l services, however, these are not daily. Mostly 757s and MDs. Caught this rare bird, at least for me.. didn't know her origin anyone help?? UNI Air = UNI Air - also a Taiwanese domestic carrier. It is affiliated with Evergreen Group (the parent co. of EVA Air). Mostly MDs. Edited February 11, 2006 by Denny Yen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
S V Choong 4 Report post Posted February 11, 2006 Taken to Incheon immediately after arrival.. and my what a beautiful building.. but its not the terminal..i wonder what it's for?? This is the high speed rail building, from what I can remember. Very much like our terminal for KLIA Ekspres. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Attan 0 Report post Posted February 11, 2006 Thanks, Denny. Beautiful shots. I somehow love the Asiana livery (and also Shamrock). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ignatius 4 Report post Posted February 11, 2006 Thanx all for the compliments and comments.. Azahan,.. yup tarmac activity was really high always, both intl and domestic.. One thing that surprises me is that Incheon has got parrallel runways with the same designated number as KLIA 14L-32L, and also 14R-32R but they are much closer to each other.. Denny,... thanx for the info for the taiwanese carrier.. FAT has got plenty of special liveries? yes no? Azman.... yup. those baby koreans are cute and clean.. unlike MH's hehe.. Attan.. whoa.. glad u love Asiana Airlines livery.. though my camera tend to have AF problems with its colors... damn blurr shots come out most the time.. Raj.. my journey was all by KA.. KLIA-ICN (A330) Gimpo-Jeju(A330), Jeju-Gimpo(A300B6), ICn-KLIA(A330) Now I miss Korea very much.. Would love to go spotting there.. Heavy traffic always.. more airlines to spot... nice cool weather (-12deg hhehe) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
