Denny Yen 0 Report post Posted September 24, 2006 These were taken at noon today. Arrival of B-HOY, my ride from NRT-TPE. The first time I saw her at NRT was in 2004. Push-back from Gate 15 at T1's rotunda building. Opposite is it is the cargo terminal. Silver jet. Aeroflot cargo Samurai Blue This BA 744 was struggling to get off the ground. The usual rotate spot is the "grassy" clock opposite T1, but it only managed to rotate at A4. Hotel at the end of rwy is the NRT Marriot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Denny Yen 0 Report post Posted September 24, 2006 Two parallel NW A330s parallel...the foreground a/c has just landed on the shorter rwy, and is taxiing towards Gate 27. Ah-moi captain. Traffic jam/gridlock at the intersecting taxiways and northern crossing towards T2. Simple design, which gives the a/c a new look. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Azuddin 1 Report post Posted September 24, 2006 Two parallel NW A330s parallel...the foreground a/c has just landed on the shorter rwy, and is taxiing towards Gate 27. my dad used to went to NRT every month from IAH. he bring home lots of pict from there. The question i always have in my mind is, why NRT is like heaven for NWA and UAL. NWA even operate 757 to OSN, S. Korean (my dad used to fly on this when he work in korea last year). is it like a hub for them? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Denny Yen 0 Report post Posted September 24, 2006 Right = duty-free brochure; Left = Inflight magazine. Full time CXs are used as models. Other goodies include a plastic card (inside a classical-1960s style envelope with a window in the middle. The card shows a modern CX A346). For 3 months, starting July until Sept., each CX flight will be comprised of selected F/As wearing old CX uniforms from 1950s, 60s up to 80s. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pieter C. 5 Report post Posted September 24, 2006 Excellent shots, Denny, and damn lucky to fly on this special coloured 744 (still hoping to see this one once in AMS, but as you can see from my 'flight logbook' entries, the chances are very slim ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Denny Yen 0 Report post Posted September 25, 2006 After take-off from Rwy 34L (the longer rwy), we made a steep right turn and flew U-shape routing which took us out towards the sea. This routing gives a full view of NRT. H-shaped building is T2; and the inter-linking structure is T1. Blue roof structure is the cargo terminal. T1 open-air viewing deck is the full length building opposite the fuel storage tanks (white color). Rotunda building (round) is mainly dominated by AA, CX, NWA. NRT's shorter rwy 34R...spot the a/c landing. An ongoing land dispute (>10years) with a local farmer has prevented the authorities from lengthening the rwy to make both rwys capable of taking 744s.

Pieter C. 5 Report post Posted September 25, 2006 Excellent air-shots of NRT...the last one clearly shows 'the farm' in between the runway 34R The same stubborness applies for the de-tour of the taxiway to the left of the runway ??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
