BC Tam 2 Report post Posted February 14, 2013 Blue cone. Could it be a new/newish engine ? Resulting from the 'technical glitch' that brought on those delays and cancellations about a month ago ? Wild guess here Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AlvinLvK 0 Report post Posted February 16, 2013 Superb night spotting jahur! Just noticed that today's MH2617 has been delayed until tomorrow 9.30am... spotted MKJ just now around 4pm might be doing the PEK charter flight again tonight as MH8388, but according to http://en.bcia.com.cn/business/flightInfo.jspx?language=en , seems like the flight will be going back directly to KUL as MH8385...

Waiping 12 Report post Posted February 18, 2013 Been trying to capture this bird since last week. Saw on FR24 it was EC-LKB, operating KUL - BKI - KCH - KUL. Last week she usually depart KUL around 4am and reach BKI just before 7am. Then depart at night to KCH before heading back to KUL, ETA 1am. However today a one hour delay made sure I can get her in broad daylight. By the way, the rego is 9M-GSA. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BC Tam 2 Report post Posted February 18, 2013 Good catch Waiping Think she normally loiters round the 'cargo' portion at T2 during the day Gading Sari Aviation (Pos Laju ?) bird - a rare 734F Were there ever any new build 734F or are all converted sub-species ?

Which translated into no photo opportunity at all. Yes, I think it's under Gading Sari now. great catch bro! the first inspiration for me is, why so air-asia-ish? >. Red and white is the color of Champions! Anyway, just thought I let you know that I took this photo at the workers quarters just before Maskargo. The place has been vacated, everything moved away, with the exception of a few dogs and puppies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Current rego N661AG. Ex Garuda's and Gading Sari gonna be the first cargo operator as the aircraft was just converted into cargo. Will be registered as 9M-GSB. 9M-GSA is non-efis 734.

Amirul Mazlan 0 Report post Posted February 21, 2013 They didnt paint the aircraft from previous operator. Just scrape off the old logo. Initially wanted to paint it in PosLaju's color but DRB HICOM cancelled it last minute as they want a new livery. So GSAS have to wait. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Waiping 12 Report post Posted February 21, 2013 Actually you can check out the previous livery under EC-LKB on A.net. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
