KS Ong 1 Report post Posted June 4, 2018 Happening weekend when SP departed to Geneva. The weather was 'perfect' The crowd. All waiting and in position to photograph through and over the fence. SP rolling. As she is heavy on fuel, she rotated quite late at Rwy15 and had a shallow climb. Dan lain-lain planes to photograph.

flee 5 Report post Posted July 14, 2018 (edited) Some military activity at Subang recently: Then there are some private jets: Firefly has stored the ATR 72-600s for a couple of years now. Some were disposed to Nam Air but the rest remain unsold. Recently, two of the stored aircraft performed some test flights. Are they returning to the fleet or are they prepared to be sold? The Haj charter season has begun and it is so nice to see the B744s again! Enjoy! Edited July 14, 2018 by flee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KS Ong 1 Report post Posted July 22, 2018 This morning. AK5135, 9M-AHR, from BKI with 164 POB, diverted here after they made a go-around at KUL. They had 45mins for fuel remaining when they landed at 0800. Thinking they might have a quick refuel, some of us waited for her departure. After a long long wait, AK9898, 9M-AJW, landed at 1130, with 6 POB. Probably at that time, we thought AHR had gone tech and this was a rescue flight. Cant imagin the passengers had to wait for 3.5 hours in the aircraft. Not long after, AK5135D departed for KUL at 1220 with 167 POB. To our surprised, AHR came out for departure as AK9897 with 3 POB not long after. It then made us wonder, what took them so long to refuel and why they need a rescue flight. Further reference later in FR24, AHR continued to BKI. Bonus. The view if AirAsia were to be based in ZSB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Samuel Chy 0 Report post Posted July 22, 2018 so they transfer the pax from AHR to AJW? but later on 5136 back BKI in AGK, and delayed also... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SB184 departs a rather busy SZB for its EX HOP sortie. A TUDM officer hops on board the second Su-30 MKI ... ... with a message for a Malaysian Wings member Mission accomplished, the Sukhoi returned to land on runway 15 with its chutes deployed.

flee 5 Report post Posted August 24, 2018 The first ever visit by Indian Air Force Sukhoi Su-30 MKIs soon came to an end. The team departed on 23 August. While the support team left using runway 15, the fighter jets departed from runway 33... No sooner had the IAF left, the French Air Force arrived in style! The A400M stayed back to help out in Lombok but the A310 made it today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
