Waiping 12 Report post Posted January 5, 2020 First proper spotting session for the new year. Starting off with a small mosquito. 9M-LCS formerly PK-LDG of Batik Indonesia. Probably roped in to as Malindo has allocated 1 B737-900 for charter duty to Japan since end of 2019. Finally able to photograph 9M-VAA in good light. Been trying to get her ever since her schedule changed to afternoon arrival. Weather hasn't been kind until today. The icing on the cake. Private jet bringing Taiwanese megastars like Lee Hom, Power Station and David Tao back to TPE after a private function the night before. Didn't get a glimpse of the megastars as I was taking the photos of 9M-VAA arrival above. May this be a fruitful year for everyone. Cheers! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Waiping 12 Report post Posted February 21, 2020 Throwback Jan 2017, a host of VIPs including HRH the Sultan of Brunei flew in with their own metal to attend the wedding of then CM of Sabah's daughter. We were treated to a full house at terminal 2 including the B748 BBJ and 9M-III etc. Fast forward 3 years later another wedding saw full house terminal 2 again. This time HRH brought in his newer B787 BBJ V8-OAS. HRH the King came in on 9M-NAB. Turkish registered TC-MMM from Sarawak with CM onboard. N828TK dropped of an unknown VIP before heading to T1 for parking overnight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alif A. F. 0 Report post Posted June 7, 2020 Hi Guys, I noticed Xiamen Airlines has been doing several flights from SZX lately, I thought our border is still closed? Or is it COVID-19 related? And also as at the end of May 30, MH432 had been doing KUL-BKI-HKG route utilising A333. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Could be cargo only flights - airlines are only flying about 4 or 5% of their normal schedules and a lot of belly cargo capacity was lost. So there is a need for some cargo flights to operate.

I'm assuming it's a local outfit. with international travel out of the question due to COVID19, would be great to see what we've been missing out domestically Edited June 11, 2020 by Timothy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
