Samuel Chy 0 Report post Posted September 20, 2016 Beautiful pix in beautiful weather, Sam. KE used to send B744s and now they are sending B77Ws. Will they send B748s in future? unfortunately, KE won't deployed their widebody for BKI Schedule flights, unless peak season maybe might have A330. the 747 we snapped before is normally on charter flight basis only. but still, finger cross for 748. Love the shots Samuel. Keep them coming. Btw is the KE B777, a scheduled flight or charter? those KE are charter flights. on 15Sept, they fly the passengers come BKI and ferry back to ICN. and 18Sept the aircraft ferry here to fly back the passengers.

Eddy Liew 0 Report post Posted October 17, 2016 The problem is the mode s displayed 7502D3 indeed belongs to Firefly AT76 9M-FIE. Mode S is used to determine all aircraft information. Somehow 9M-FIE and 9M-WAQ has the same mode s. Westland Augusta W319 9M-WAQ airframe database has no mode s. so... not sure how to notify FR24 about this error. At the FR24 database 9M-FIE and 9M-WAQ share the same aircraft information. If we can find 9M-WAQ real mode s then we could resolve the error. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
T Azahan 1 Report post Posted October 24, 2016 continue with Malaysia Day Spotting session, specially dedicated for the 9M-NEO aka A320NEO as usual. before taking the main, take a test shots. from the parade, 9M-AQF passed by someone say, it's getting merrier after the previous "potong". and my favourite, from rear view, which quite obvious with the engine size also.
