Sad..that's the best place for spotting in the morning. ... Great pics, Joon Jet. I noticed they used both 32L and 32R for landings lunchtime today. Is this common? .ny Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Naim 6 Report post Posted March 18, 2006 Beautiful Sri Lankan..Always love the shot of A330 during landing & approach..nice! Rode in both UL A330 and A340 last year (KUL-CMB-KUL).

MI-8? You mean the chopper? I had no clue it was the MI-8 (am not that chopper-literate). Lemme search my archive if I can find other pics of the machine. Btw, what's so special about the MI-8? .ny Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pieter C. 5 Report post Posted March 18, 2006 Btw, what's so special about the MI-8? .ny The front one is a MI-8, a Russian made helicopter (believe the factory is at Kazan)...the 2nd one is an American made Bell helicopter...nice to see both in one picture Overhere in NL, it's quite "special" when you see one, I guess, not the case in MY, for "Bomba" use them also Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LeeCH 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2006 Joon Jet, Nice shots. Looks like the MASKargo landed really really heavy. Not by looking at the smoke though.....the nose is so high up in the flare it looks like rotation.....must be a very very late and excessive flare to reduce the excessive sink rate......its OK. There are no pax to complain and no cabin crew to face embarassment with. The perks of flying Cargo. Anyway did your car registration number came up in any 4D? Hehehe.....Nobody buy ah?
