Singapore Changi Airport Spotting

Recommended Posts

I must admit that although I was not previously a fan of the revised livery (judging from pictures), I am now a convert. I do like this livery - especially the AIRFRANCE title.

The red 'band' next to the titles and on the tail reminds me of this:

GZND was parked at gate C1 and she arrived around 1717.

 

AF256 was expected to arrive at 1727hrs but eventually was about two mins late . . . could not have arrived at 1717hrs.

 

Sorry LeeCH, I don't remember seeing 9V-SRH . . . this is one of those afternoons when everything seems nice and so I photographed almost every one that came along.

 

Pieter : You are right . . . I really agree that it seems to have been cut and pasted from CITYJET. Does this airline have anything to do with Air France? BTW Pieter, I will be in AMS from 15-24 May and staying with my friend Mischa in Zwolle. I will of course be at AMS quite a few times during that period and gunnig for that Lan Cargo B777F that is expected on 20May. And this time round, I am once again hoping to get the retro B738 of KLM in better light.

 

Do you by any chance know anyone who knows the history of the Amsterdam-Batavia route well? Someone who knows of anecdotes and interesting things that happened during the history of this route?

 

Dank u wel . . . perhaps we might meet somewhere around AMS.

You're right KC. Just checked my camera exiF. She was still over Changi Beach at 1740. Thank you for the correction :D

No wonder I did not see that AF. I landed at 1545LT. Would have missed it anyway as I am taxi routed via SC1 towards T2.

 

KC, sorry. Mistaken with my flight outbound on SRH. Inbound KIX-SIN was on SRC. Thanks.

KC,

 

Will be away on a trip between 15-22may09 (DXB-IAH) and have to work the weekend of 23-24may09 :sorry:

Cityjet is a 100% subsidiary of AF :pardon:

Found this link for some nice AMS-Batavia info:

Why is it in Oakland Raiders livery? D7 starting KUL-OAK soon? (If so, where will the transit point be?)

The A340 can't handle direct KUL - OAK without stop? Any possibility the plane would not be based here, maybe STN - OAK?

 

Seems like there is still a patch of toothpaste green on the belly of the plane. :p

What's with the tinge of green under the belly??

 

Air Canada's color. Seems like they didn't paint over it.

Wow!!! D7 will take delivery new A340 with special livery :blink:

I just caught XAB last visit to KUL, but I have to revist to catch him... :p

It's very difficult to complete AK & D7 special livery :mellow:

Went down to Changi Beach to catch Amiri 1. It landed at the wrong runway!

 

Full zoom + Heavy cropped. :(

But I like to believe today would be a 'special' day and I have packed/'ta pao'/bungkus enough blue sky from Perth to last me the whole afternoon. Then ... one by one.

 

Look like a FedEx wannabe.

If anyone still remember, the all white PK-RPX crash-landed in KCH some years ago. Are they related?

PK-RPI_WSSS_200509.jpg

 

Probably not special to most SIN n KUL spotters, still a special color to me.

Yokoso Japan!!!!

Another strayed aircraft landing at the 'wrong' runway. :pardon:

Woohoo! A long pencil star alliance for myself. :yahoo:

AF new color simply look gorgeous in the crisp late afternoon light. B)

Of course, the icon of WSSS - the whale jet. Dedicate this our Taiko Azahan.
