Sri Ramani K. 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2011 Here's my LIMA '11 log but it's not the complete list.

Trans Avia Export Ilyushin Il-76TD (EW-7****) Corrections, additions, etc. are more than welcome Hello MIR, rego is EW-78819. Departed out of KUL today circa 5pm. Otherwise, great pics as usual from everyone! Thanks for making us feel like as if we were there! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Victor A. 2 Report post Posted December 13, 2011 You were there on Saturday morning Victor?.... sorry didn't see you. Friday morning I shot from near the lake directly opposite Mahsuri Hall and Saturday, on the hill near the DCA quarters, next to LANGKAWI sign opposite the terminal. Yup, I was there too on Saturday morning. Sorry I didn't see you too. I went to MIEC on Friday afternoon but skip the Saturday morning/afternoon only to regret it after seeing from afar on board the deck of KD Kelantan that C-17, F-5E etc was flying... Just to share some photos of the US Navy P-3C Orion and the RAAF A330 tanker. I only know CDR should be Commander, but what about CMDCM. They also have names on the nose gear cover.

xtemujin 0 Report post Posted December 14, 2011 Do come down to the Singapore Aishow 2012 in February, there will be the RSAF F16D, Apache and F15SG. I'm not too sure about the USAF F22 Raptor. Anyway l'm hoping that RMAF will send in the SU30MKM for the Singapore Airshow. Cheers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nguyen Vu Loc 0 Report post Posted December 14, 2011 Agreed, BTW the RSAF F16D (and also Apache, F15SG) was present in SIN Airshow 2008 & 2010. From its website re. RSAF static displays, I don't see anything newer Anyway I'll be at this airshow for the JSF35 and B787. Hope to see some of you there Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Victor A. 2 Report post Posted December 14, 2011 Thanks for link Victor A. Any photos to share from the Maritime part? Sorry Waiping, I missed the Maritime show as I was on board KD Kelantan at the time. had a good chat though with our navy man.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iwan 3 Report post Posted December 14, 2011 iwan-san agreed!!! i also at lost of words when i saw this on the tarmac.... really had a big crush on this now.. kuman yupppp.had a chat with the technician i guess?seriously didnt expect to see the plane here. always commented on how they made the F-16 a bit too muscular compared to the original elegant one, but seeing it up close like that, it wasnt that bad at all.. anyway here are some pics from the maritime show. was there awhile only after the first day morning airshow session. missed a big part of the maritime demonstration though. but somehow it didnt really matter since i just couldnt give attention to boats the way i did for the planes.. this guys were posing for a majalah 3 kind of show i think. looked quite funny KD Tun Razak,sadly not open to public some stealthy looking shi[p i was so tempted to push the button to watch some fireworks! thats all folks!

Kip Dawson 0 Report post Posted January 2, 2012 Just reach hotel tired but very happy. Nice to spot with Uncle Norman, Iwan and Kip Dawson. Now I'm off to bed and hopefully get on with photo editing on Monday. Anyway, today morning's flying exhibition was marred by the "no show" for the Gripen and Rafale. However the Rafale did fly in the afternoon, and the C-17 also took to the sky and did the infamous "reverse" thingy. The ending saw 3 TUDM F-5E, 3 Hawks and 3 Hornets low flypass. A bit late, as I forgot to take my camera cable, so unable to download photos until I got back to the UK on 30th Dec........... really nice to meet up with Waiping, unfortunately due to my delayed flight and Uncle Norman's early departure, we missed each other. Anyway here is a few of my photos, starting with some of the static........... Starting with some of the Singapore contingent Really do like these Block 52 F-16D's Followed by the locals the elderly 'Nuri'. Has a replacement been ordered yet? the smart little Aermacchi the brutal Flanker and the soon to be replaced Fulcrum then some from the final display........ in no particular order Take off's first sight for me of a 'twin stick' TUDM Fulcrum the impressive if rather ugly Rafale why did they send the same two as 2009 !!! this was also here in 2009 not really a 'take off' as it flew in from Butterworth and of course the obligatory 'Rhino' nice paint job Landing and taxiing...... for us in the West a rare sight of a Hawaii based Globemaster with 'air brake' deployed with last century 'air brake' deployed !! stop !! cameraman on taxiway what's going to replace these at the next show? Finally........ Laurie B has already posted a photo of the 3 Hornets in the late afternoon flypast, so here's the 3 single seat Hawks a couple for interesting support aircraft seen on the Mon and Tues following the show a fifty year old Herc !! built in 1959 and still looking in great shape support for the Navy Super Hornets other interesting support seen which I didn't get pictures off, couldn't get out of the pool quick enough Il-76TD......came to collect the 'Tigre' C-160R Transall and C-135FR tanker for the Rafales CH-47SD for the RSiAF F-16's Best wishes for the new year to all MWingers.

Norman 1 Report post Posted January 3, 2012 Wow nice collections of the 'after the show', Kip.... btw... did you get the F5's flypast? and really felt bad not to meet you.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kwek 0 Report post Posted January 3, 2012 Yes, more after I go through the ton of raw photos. Any tips on mass output? The manual process is taking too much time. Awesome pics Kwek... I know there're more to come, right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kip Dawson 0 Report post Posted January 3, 2012 Wow nice collections of the 'after the show', Kip.... btw... did you get the F5's flypast? More of a high speed pass really, and they appeared unexpectedly, and caught most of us out. Consequently not enough time to lock on!! So apologies for the poor quality, but at least you can make out what they are. Kip Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nguyen Vu Loc 0 Report post Posted January 5, 2012 Yes, more after I go through the ton of raw photos. Any tips on mass output? The manual process is taking too much time. Kwek: If you use Photoshop then I suggest to sort your photos of the same lighting into separate sub-folders. Then: 1/ take 1 photo in each sub-folder to process manually while recording the steps into 1 action. 2/ The action may include resize, watermark, save as a copy into a new destination folder then close the original file without saving. 3/ Take another photo in the same sub-folder and test with the above action without dialog boxes. 4/ If everything is Ok then use the Batch command in the File menu > Automate > Batch 5/ In the Batch dialog box, select the above action and the Source is folder 6/ Then choose the folder containing the photo you processed above as source folder 7/ Untick if necessary the box for Override Action "Save as"commands and finally click OK If you complete the Batch dialog box correctly, PS will automatically process non-stop all the raw photos in this sub-folder to the same parameters as for the test photo. Repeat the same steps for the other sub-folders, et voila` Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kwek 0 Report post Posted January 5, 2012 Thanks! I use Canon's free DPP to convert RAW to JPG and use Photoshop elements to made the adjustments - mainly contrast and crop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Norman 1 Report post Posted January 6, 2012 You can use Adobe Lightroom.... the latest will read latest camera raw (all brand) Similar process to what Nguyen suggest in Photoshop.... but much more simpler and the cataloging is superb.... Download the trial copy.... use it for 30days... & I think you'll purchase it at the end of the period Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kwek 0 Report post Posted January 7, 2012 Thanks Norman, I used the earlier 1.1 version of Lightroom previously. Didn't quite like it then. Will give it another shot. The cataloging part is perhaps the best part of the program. Need to do something fast else most of my pictures will never see the light of the day....
