kianhong 0 Report post Posted March 29, 2010 Hoe Jyh and Kianhong spotting together ? : almost similar shots ! Love the 732 pictures, guys ! Affirm. Looks like 9M-NEA has reverted back to its former life! I wonder why... I can't resist sharing a few more shots from yesterday... cause light was so blatantly beautiful! New B77W for Qatar. Delivered on the 25 Feb 2010. Batavia recently up-size some of the flights to A320. Good load I guess. Believe it or not ... first time catching Emirates SkyCargo. Caught the two 'oranges' (OO-THA & OO-THB) all the time. Cargolux 'City of Walferdange' looks good too! Yankee India short final for 02L while another SQ B772 was at downwind. Even this 'smoker' looks clean 'Paul McGinness' approaching 02L as QF10 in warm glow of sunset. Thanks for viewing. Cheers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mark Tang 0 Report post Posted March 30, 2010 Good afternoon everyone, We are spotters from Hong Kong coming to Singapore for the weekend. However, we have checked current NOTAM of WSSS and found that runway 02L/20R will be closed between 1000 - 1700 local time on 3 Apr. Is there any local information / updates on this? Many thanks for your help and reply! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Many thanks for your help and reply! That's affirm. So that's rest day for most spotters as there's no established spotting location for 02C arrival in the afternoon. If you are lucky and wind favoring RWY 20. You may try Changi beach for 20C arrival in the afternoon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kwek 0 Report post Posted March 31, 2010 It's Easter weekend. Sometimes the works may be cancelled or postponed due to holidays. Look out for NOTAMS these couple of days and hope for the best. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pieter C. 5 Report post Posted March 31, 2010 Pieter, Neptune Air will fly to SGN this year, perhaps using the 732. Hope they will survive and still operate next year February (2011), as will not be back before that time... OT: checked the AF website, and, they'll operate NONSTOP CDG-SGN with 772 that period Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kianhong 0 Report post Posted April 1, 2010 APRIL FOOL DAY !!!! Luckily for this time, Iran Air didn't play a fool on us. It was operating special tourist charter flights. The previous two was super delayed, I just gave up. This time not only it was on time, it was 5mins early! Totally awesome as this is my first B747SP. Thank for viewing.
