Went for a short visit last week. Just some shots I managed to get in good lighting from the terminal. Lighting is really good in the morning! Afternoon, no chance at all.

First time catching a BR A320.


The only one with favorable lighting in the evening while waiting for my departure back to KCH.

Thanks Sam! Can't wait to be back there again. Perhaps another short trip end of this year to really take advantage of your spotting locations.

as usual overslept.. missed out the first 3 departure of the TBM

 

my first catch, which is the forth departure while the remaining 2 still loading their cargo there

N910RW, private owned Socata TBM-910

 

 

the last 2 decided to use take longer taxi down for Juliet departure, or maybe due to traffics getting more heavy

N900JV, private owned socata TBM-900

 

HB-KRJ, Private owned Socata TBM-930

 

as per flight radar record, they landed at Nha Trang Cam Tanh Intl Airport (Vietnam) , flight time is 2hr45mins

and the day before they arrive from Denpasar. club convoy?

 

*update* yesterday 04/07 they depart to Hanoi, another 2hr30+mins journey

A little picture collection from BKI. We were invited by Malaysia Airports last week, to do some spotting and showcasing BKI airport in the airside. Though the timing was short, we made use of whatever we had.

 

Escorted by BKI MAHB staffs. There were very helpful and understood our spotting hobby.

 

 

Inilah barisan kita..

 

 

When there is no traffic, profile picture / selfie time

 

 

Some traffic during our short stay.

 

 

 

 

 

Time to go back. The sun has set. A quick shot of the terminal before escorted back to side gate to return pass.

 

 

Wrapping up for the day

[Waiping 12]

9M-MWJ not only spotted a new special livery for UMS, but also a new name - SEMPORNA.

 

[BC Tam 2]

..... but also a new name - SEMPORNA.

Not formerly SIBUGA was it ?!

[jahur 0]

Not formerly SIBUGA was it ?!

It was formerly Libaran(Musa Amans area) hahaha. Now it's Semporna(Shafie's area).

[BC Tam 2]

The pettiness of it all

[Waiping 12]

I think they should just name them according to airport that they fly to. Neither Libaran or Semporna has an airport.
