Naim 6 Report post Posted October 28, 2006 28 Oct 2006 1528h. From Jalan Pekeliling, ominous black clouds rolling in, and the occasional lightnings ... ... as they move towards KLIA ... ... and the lake. 1530h. MH's B737 lands. 1532h. AK's AFG appears ... ... and lands. 1538. MH's B722 arrives, wobbles and lands. After that the sky opens up, raining cats and dogs with winds and thunder. No more landings for a while, I guess. +++ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Naim 6 Report post Posted October 28, 2006 At least 3 aircraft diverted to PEN. And MH1153 from PEN was delayed for 31 minutes. The 772 (last pic) wobbled quite a bit. I could see its nose pointing towards the port side a few times while landing. Crosswind must be strong. I drove back to Shah Alam soon after that, but could only manage 60-70km/h in the left lane of the expressway. Could hardly see what was ahead! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was on the way home after dropping my son off at LCCT when I arrived at the lake (near the ERL overpass), and decided to stop and hang around. Btw no clue whether my kid's KBR flight managed to beat the nasty weather or was delayed, no news from him till now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chaity 1 Report post Posted October 30, 2006 (edited) Hi Naim, thanks for the coverage from the pond side. 3 spotters, Raymond Ngu, Yong and myself were at the ladang side the same day. We left at around 1535 when it started to rain. <_> We were happy as the weather in the morning was superb. Caught this one at 1006, a bit of jam BTW, welcome to the bright side. Only 600+ shuttle count Azreen, we were waiting for the EK to depart. Too bad the weather "blew" us away early. Edited October 30, 2006 by Chaity Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Naim 6 Report post Posted October 30, 2006 Thanks for the kind words, folks. Hi Naim, thanks for the coverage from the pond side. 3 spotters, Raymond Ngu, Yong and myself were at the ladang side the same day. We left at around 1535 when it started to rain. Oooo.. ladang side. I was wondering how to get there myself. But at the pond side, just under the planes' path, the jet sounds were awesome! Here's as close as I could get with my 200mm Tamron. 9M-MMV, pics 1 sec apart.
