This one could be gone anytime too....if Jetstar secures landing rights for Indonesia.

Hi! These were taken in 2006, since then the entire perimeter was double-fenced and thus it is no longer possible for such shots.

With absolutely gorgeous sunlight last afternoon, gorgeous subjects would have to appear :)

 

First up is this Air Bagan A310, XY-AGD. She differs from her sister ship -AGE by the fact that she has wingtip fences. Can't get enough of these cute Airbuses!

XY-AGD_MW.jpg

 

Next Cathay Pacific sent in a silver bullet B-HMD as CX47. My first time catching a CX silver bullet and very pleased with it!

B-HMD_MW.jpg

 

Regular PK-GGG now features additional stickers at the rear promoting the 'e'. Giving me a blink too as she prepares to land after a trip to Vietnam.

PK-GGG_MW.jpg

 

A delayed arrival by China Cargo MD-11F B-2173. Not that I mind that she's more than 3hrs late to arrive in such nice sunshine.

B-2173_MW.jpg

 

Last but not least, 9V-SQG returns from a test flight with freshly applied new titles. These enlarged titles really look great on the 772!.

9V-SQG_MW.jpg

 

Looking forward to some more great weather ahead for even more spotting :)

I have had a very busy month so far . . . but while the sky is being washed this morning in preparation for another super sunny afternoon, I am taking the opportunity to share some shots from SIN since the start of the month.

 

Firstly, a typical generic shot of Changi with her permanent residents . . .

MW-ChangiAirport-2007-09-01-06Cr.jpg

 

And then a not very common intruder appeared near the flight path of runway 20C on the afternoon of 1 Sep . . .

MW-Hangboarding-2007-09-01-01Cr.jpg

 

2 Sep turned out to be a Jumbo-treat for me . . . in less than 20 mins, I got two Jumbos and left as the weather closed in.

MW-D-ABTH-2007-09-02-03Cr-StarAllia.jpg

MW-V8-ALI-2007-09-02-02Cr-APS.jpg

 

On 18 Sep, a ceremony was held to welcome Jett8 Airlines Cargo . . . and the airline's sole workhorse was there.

MW-9V-JEA-2007-09-18-10Cr-OfficialL.jpg

 

On 19 Sep, I had the opportunity to go into the airport to take part in a recce in preparation for photography of the A380 delivery flight. It was a chance to photograph other subjects as they come by, including this home bird against a sunset.

MW-9V-SBD-2007-09-19-02Cr-ROP-Sunse.jpg

 

And a MegaArk against a familiar landmark.

MW-9V-SFI-2007-09-19-01Cr-oc-SINtwr.jpg

 

And a Megatop (though the name has now been dropped) climbing out of runway 20C. This was painted in the 50th Anniversary livery a decade ago.

MW-9V-SMZ-2007-09-19-05Cr-oc-TOS.jpg

 

Another bird at sunset . . . heading home to Hong Kong.

MW-B-HOR-2007-09-19-05Cr-TOP.jpg

 

Lufthansa's lightly-loaded B744 heads to Jakarta.

MW-D-ABVF-2007-09-19-04Br-TOS.jpg

 

And a triple Triple Sevens shot.

MW-TripleSevens-2007-09-19-01Cr.jpg

 

Always love a triJet and glad to catch EVA Cargo on a sunny afternoon.

MW-B-16113-2007-09-20-04Cr-APS.jpg

 

CAAS had us all fluttering in excitement when its information board shows the arrival of VP-BIB (supposedly a B747F of Air Bridge Cargo) . . . but what turned up was a wee bit smaller than a B747F . . . in the form of VP-BIP. Damn . . . what huge difference a little typo makes.

MW-VP-BIP-2007-09-20-02Cr-APS.jpg

 

Although e-Travel has been around for some time, it is still quite a novelty at Garuda Indonesia . . . but I am sure none of us are grumbling over the special markings. Very interesting markings indeed.

MW-PK-GGG-2007-09-21-01Cr-eTravel-T.jpg

 

And finally a twice-daily visitor to Changi - the AN-26 of Batam Logistics / Air Glona. You can see the left arm of a crew member in the bubble window . . . would I love to stick a camera into that bubble to photograph the landing or take-off sequence.

MW-EK-26227-2007-09-21-01Cr-APP.jpg

It isn't a kite . . . goondoo me don't even know what to call it. The guy was hanging from this and surfing on the sea. And it was just to the right of the 20C approach . . . but certainly not high enough to threaten the landing traffic.

 

Just that from my position, it puts both subjects in one picture.

"No kite within the 5km vicinity of aerodrome!!" :angry: We had a similar incident at the Beach when Gavin was here. A man was trying to fly his 'gold fish' kite near the approach path, but his 'gold fish' never took off. :rolleyes: :pardon:

 

I believe that's what they call 'kite surfing'?

 

Superb photos from within WSSS, KC. Very nice sunset shots. :good:
