BC Tam 2 Report post Posted February 20, 2013 (edited) So 0900 is ETA for KUL or BKI? According to Captain Radzi's post, it's a 0900 ETD, presumably KUL/SZB ? Which means ETA BKI of 11:30 or so ? Game on Waiping ? Edited February 20, 2013 by BC Tam Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Radzi 2 Report post Posted February 21, 2013 That is not the regular KUL-KCH route. Regular KUL-KCH route is a straight line from Pekan (east coast peninsular) to Kuching. This one looks like they are going to BKI, then at the end of Singapore radar coverage they turn right to intercept the airways to KCH. Problem? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

B739 ER will arrive soon Can they actually do that, use one aircaft type to get AOC & operate another once it's received?

S V Choong 4 Report post Posted February 21, 2013 Will Malindo be using the MTB or LCCT/ KLIA when they become operational? I assume it is safe to say it is going to be MTB until KLIA2 is finished? Look forward to their 737-900ER Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
