BC Tam 2 Report post Posted August 28, 2012 I thought I saw the silhouettes of four helis hovering or flying very slowly in very rough general direction of BKI yesterday morning (sorry, cannot be more specific as I had to keep eyes on road as well whilst driving ) Thought they looked like Bells, but now with this NOTAM ........

jahur 0 Report post Posted August 31, 2012 Looks like MAS has removed scheduled A330 services to BKI. So for now MH2616 will be using the B737-400 or B737-800. My contribution 9M-MKG taken on May. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michael Chai 0 Report post Posted August 31, 2012 (edited) Those pictures are really amazing, Share mines for the spotting throughout these days 29th August 2012: Today, is the last day Malaysia Airlines will operate their last and final schedule widebody flight between Kuala Lumpur and Kota Kinabalu on flight MH2616/MH2617. And always, today is Wednesday, where all students had their studies and adults have works to do. In fact, I did have as well, but on the suitable time to take the break for the final flights of widebody in BKI. And I reached myself at Jalan Selangor around 2pm and spotted this private jet takeoff. VP-CSA Not to mention our flag carrier, whom graciously took off from Kota Kinabalu on Runway 02 9M-MLG And Red bus made her own way for departure to Runway 02. 9M-AHW Main transportation throughout the borneo, MASWings. Without them, the whole Malaysia aviation would be dull. 9M-MWB One of the reasons spotters like to spot aircraft, Liveries~ This time, Red Bus company sent their 100th Airbus to Kota Kinabalu. Bet the dragon will soar to the skies as much as she can. 9M-AQH Eventhough the colors faded, the livery still remain as her first airbus stop in Kota Kinabalu. 9M-AHG Red bus started to dominate the Malaysia airports soon~ 9M-AQG Without them, Airasia will cry like hell. Petronas Jet A-1 fuel. Up Up AND AWAY~ See me fly, I'm flying in the sky.... 9M-MWC Anyone can tell me why Airasia don't promote their BIG card livery or CIMB livery but Bank Rakyat Livery? 9M-AHQ Truck: Run Run Run, Let's catch up that Red Bus as fast as I can... 9M-AQD: You won't surpass me, no matter how powerful your engine is, you won't surpass my engine. 9M-AQD Not to mention our common baby Boeing for MH, Boeing 737-4H6, whereby we won't be able to spot her soon. Both of them are QD, only A and M difference~ However, both of them make the morning purposes, which means AM. 9M-MQD Coming up soon~~ Edited August 31, 2012 by Michael Chai Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AlvinLvK 0 Report post Posted September 1, 2012 Some special movements spotting on national day....and Runway 20 was in used for all traffics that time. First kick-off with AK's latest livery, SEMANGAT HARIMAU MUDA! 9M-AFI operating AK5109 back to her hometown KUL. ZOOM! 9M-AFQ has based in BKI for nearly one week already. Now operating AK6126 to Tawau. after take off, she made a right turn and fly above us! MH B737-4H6, 9M-MQE heading to somewhere...(I think should be MH2609 to KUL via LBU) 9M-MWF early rotate! TUDM C-130 A very disappointed shot, too much light were used to capture the main dish of the day, 9M-AFV!!! this one is still acceptable... and last but not least, the plane I rode before last month, 9M-FFC operating MH2616 from KUL. Have to try again next time for the AFV shots.....Cheers anyways! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
