Raj 0 Report post Posted February 13, 2006 yea, If u sit to much towards the front it's hard to see and it also depends on the angles..Cool Pic of Cx A340 wing.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rozhan 0 Report post Posted February 13, 2006 Nice views. I like that seat position for the view of the wings and engines. During turbulence, the engines sway a bit too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

S V Choong 4 Report post Posted February 14, 2006 (edited) On a few occasion we did get the long ranger Thai A340-500 at AKL, presumably their A340-600 was not available? Anyway, love the new sparkling mica purple on TG's new livery. Edited February 14, 2006 by S V Choong Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Min Chun 0 Report post Posted February 14, 2006 That's speedbrake..Lovely photos! Do MH sends 744 to AKL more frequently than 772? My sis got a 744 instead of 772 to MEL from KUL.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Azuddin 1 Report post Posted February 14, 2006 my funny story about wing view. once, i sit in First Class on Continental from IAH to LAX. my seat was second row and it's a window seat. the plane is 757-300, the stretched 757. when i look out the window to see the wing, all i can see is the tip of the wing, i already press my face to the window to see it. the lady next to me looking at me like a i was crazy. all i had in mind to say is "what's the matter, never seen a plane crazt guy riding in first class".

Raj 0 Report post Posted February 14, 2006 It's good to be back ricky..But darn school... Min Chun, During summer season every day is 744..In winter would be more 777..but sumtimes get 744..maybe twice in a week..But i wouldgive it a 50:50.. Azzudin, she would have been shocked to the days if u would have said that to her.. yea SV gotta agree with u..The purple colour is sure sparkling and it just stands out..shiny..
