And you'll reach the end of runway fence, turn right also...

If u turn left, u can go up a hill onto a crest and get side on shots of aircraft on final approach. This is probably better for those who wish to spare their cars a rough ride :-) But traffic on this stretch is a little heavy at times, so have to park very close to the edge.

SIA's A330 and A380 are frequenters of WMKJ as well...but didnt manage to snap on them,yet...

 

The new taxiway hasnt completed yet...but soon it seems...

and looks like both of the apron expansions r going to need much longer time to be completed...no significant progress over the past couple of months...perhaps bcoz of frequent showers here ? which makes the huge area of soil remains muddy

The Commercial Centre isnt completed as well...

 

I'll try to take some pictures of the current state of development of wmkj whenever it's possible :drinks:

Callsign "Trainee 771" is a B777 related flight while Callsign "Trainee 381" is a A380 based flight.

You should come and see the A380 in training flight. Awesome :good:
