Chaity 1 Report post Posted February 9, 2012 (edited) My little contribution for BKK since I was there this week for a company leisure trip. On 7/2/12, a free and easy day for my trip. Knowing it was a working day, I make my way to the spotting place based on the tips in MWings. <_> After my BTS Skytrain, Airport Rail Link to Lat Krabang and a short taxi ride to reach this place at 1045 Waited at the side of the temple but all aircraft were landing on 19L Tiny and backlit Grrrrrrrrr.......! A lot of feathered friends to accompany me I was hoping they changed to 19R arrival but not much luck Waited there till 1430, only 3 aircraft landed at 19R. This was one of it. At least something different from KUL To be continued ...... Edited February 9, 2012 by Chaity Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chaity 1 Report post Posted February 10, 2012 Before I forget, I did spot others that catches my eyes Seeing the sun shifted, I decided to walk to the main road and find a taxi back to town. Before that, I dropped by 7-11 shop by the roadside to buy some drinks. At the counter, the lady was telling me "No sell beer, only after 5PM" I was stunned and just paid for the bottle of mineral water. I am not sure if the above apply for the whole BKK or just that 7-11. I was in Pataya days earlier and able to buy beer in the afternoon. Perhaps someone can share if you have encountered the above ? Not satisfied with my 3 hours+ just to get 3 aircraft, I decided to walk along the main road towards 19L direction. About 1 km from the hotel, I managed to find a place for Thai Massage with an open car park facing the 19L arrival traffic. With my 70-300mm lens, managed to a full frame shot for wide body aircraft. The sun was good and managed to borrow a stool from the food stall by the road side. A big thank you to the stall lady. This shot is dedicated to the kind Thai lady and the kid, sawadee-kap.

Waiping 12 Report post Posted February 10, 2012 Not the same feel. For me Singapore Air Show is a family affair this time around. However the Mwings anniversary is a gathering of friends with common interest. Either way I am looking forward to both. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chaity 1 Report post Posted February 11, 2012 Thank you guys for your comments. Prompong, you were right I was around the police station area. I remembered seeing a police station sign by the road side. BKK sure have some unique traffic. Never thought I could catch these 2 airlines below From Mongolia From Bhutan I continued until around 1800 when the sun was below the horizon Next, I will post some shots from the airport on my way back to KUL.
