Recommended Posts

Dropped by Sepang Town on the way back from Tampin,

Arrived site at 1445.... expected dugong at 1455...

the Dugong got assisted by tailwind I guessed... landed at 1441... :(

 

Anyway... thanks to Pieter... a consolation, arrived 20min early too

the tailwind must be good over Bay of Bengal... everybody arrived early from the west :)

Hi Norman,

 

Nice catch there!

 

I'm a newbie when it comes to taking photos of planes. Can you provide some tips to taking good pictures? What type of lens would be most ideal?

 

I currently own a Canon 7D with a EF 28-135mm len. Is that sufficient for a starter like me?

 

Thanks for the help!

Welcome to Malaysian Wings CJMas! :)

 

Your kit is OK for shooting in Anjung Tinjau but will not be enough for Sepang town! For photography tips, do visit the General Photography section of MWings! :)

Try use your existing lens first.. get the feel of spotting,

when you feel you need the extra reach, then, make your selection..

Some of MWinger's Canon user are using 70-200mm f/2.8L /IS and

some went for 100-400mm L... There are a few on the 75-300 & still

have good results from it...

A word of warning - it can be addictive, and will probably burn hole in your pocket.

I just received info that a World Airways MD-11 (N381WA) departed KUL early morning yesterday and rumoured that it might return back to KUL from SYD today around 1530-1700.

Charity,

 

In response to your question in the other thread...

 

Virgin Australia will operate EY418/419 every Sunday, This will reduce the idle time the aircraft has in Abu Dhabi between arriving from Sydney as VA29 on Saturday and departing to Sydney on Monday as VA30.

 

Virign have 5 B777W's in their fleet 4 (VH-VPD, E, F & VOZ) are in the old V Australia livery (with Virgin Australia titles). VH-VPH is in the new Virgin Australia White scheme.
