Radzi 2 Report post Posted November 1, 2006 (edited) Good job, guys. When I saw the Kuwaiti at the satellite building, I was wondering if there was any coverage by MW members. All I know is that by 1755 LT nobody was at the ladang area anymore. BTW, that "unnamed member", is he using a Canon EOS300D with the 70-300 IS lens? Heh heh heh, got you, brother.

Norman 1 Report post Posted November 2, 2006 Thanks for all the comment guys... Emperor's smoking and lighted touchdown of the 77W is priceless... BTW... it's quite difficult to cover Cebu Pacific ( I think they'll start in December... correct?) Unless can get special pass to the Apron Control Tower for night spotting... For they'll arrived just after midnight and departing after 1am.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unless can get special pass to the Apron Control Tower for night spotting... For they'll arrived just after midnight and departing after 1am.. Norman, since you mentioned Cebu Pacific, I thot I should see if I could get good tix KUL-MNL, but it seems that all 5J flights right into early 2007 are RM517 (fare 149x2, taxes 219). Compare that to AK's typical price of RM385 (all in, but AK flies to Clark). And yes, this is the first flight in/out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
