Samuel Chy 0 Report post Posted September 18, 2008 I heard from my lil bro at RRSS that he always saw RBA B747 land at WBGR recently. The school is just on the path for Runway 02 approach. Correct me if i put my runway umber is wrong....not use to land in WBGR. Will be soon. should not be RBA. the 744 he mean should be V8-ALI, which is own by the Royal Family.

GeO 0 Report post Posted November 17, 2008 No update for Miri? That day I thought I saw an aircraft which look like A340 approaching MYY airport while I was driving along the Brighton Road in front of SMK Chung Hua. The wings are longer than the normal A320 and B737. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mokhzani 0 Report post Posted November 19, 2008 Is that Gate A3 in the picture? I thought Gate A3 supposed to be for wide-body aircraft like A330 and above... Yeah Geo I think the picture mokhzani posted was A3. I always though gate A3 has been closed down for good, I never see any a/c used that bridge, as last time there was an incident (or 2) involving MH's B734, apparently the sensor of the gate was malfunctioned that time. It's however good to see that they're using it now, it's such a waste if they really abandoned the gate. Like what Geo said, the gate A3 is designed for larger a/c, unlike A2, which is, obviously for smaller a/c. Yes that was gate A3 (sorry for the late confirmation -better late than never) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
