Singapore Changi : December

Recommended Posts

Hi Guys,

 

Hope all is well up North!

 

Well as you know, we will soon be losing our beloved Changi Coast Road and most of us are trying to invest as much time as possible in photographing there until it is finally gone. December 1 was a typical example.....I took a 1/2 day leave, as did Kwek, and KC having arrived freshly delivered from Seattle the same morning, all made our way down to Coast Road. And we were rewarded with a simply brilliant morning's photography.

 

I would like to share those pics with you! Enjoy!

Thanks for the superb morning shots, Andy... :clapping:

 

You guys are lucky in the sense Cebu Pacific are not shy to come

and go during the daylight.... Here in KLIA, they're nocturnal :pardon:

Norman,

 

Cebu Pacific is also nocturnal in SIN.

In this instance, she was delayed due to Typhoon Durian.

We were very lucky to catch her.

 

Thanks for the superb morning shots, Andy... :clapping:

Thanks for all of the comments guys :good:

 

Even though there is joy at these photos, it is also tinged with some sadness as we know that these angles will son be distant, but vivid memories. Nevertheless, we will enjoy them till the very end!

TK,

 

Come down now. First and last few chances to grab the B777-300ERs shots within these few days.

Yes, the poles are up. The fences are being put up.

There are still some positions here and there.

You didn't take enough in September due bad weather. Miss this final opportunity and it's gone forever. :sorry:

 

sad to hear that coastal road fence is up :( ..good one andrew

Yes, it was a superb morning. After landing in SIN at 0629hrs, I could not help noticing that it was going to be a beautiful morning. Thank to the superb comfort of the A345, I felt fully rested. Dropped everything, freshened up and off I went to the Coastal Road to join Kwek and Andrew.

 

And who could resist a beautiful TriJet . . . in the colours of China Cargo!

And while Xiamen Airlines operates out of SIN daily, this is the first time I am seeing it with a shiner (black nose).

IPB Image

 

The light that morning was also perfect for Thai Airways International's new livery. If only this old bus could rotate a little earlier.

At 0930hrs, I went off to attend the Official Opening of SIA Engineering Company's Hangars 4 & 5 . . . and was rewarded with the chance to photograph Air Atlanta Icelandic's B744F (still wearing the Korean registration of its former operator - Asiana Cargo).

IPB Image

 

When I called to tell Andrew and Kwek of my joy shooting this B744F, I could only hear both of them screaming and yelling . . . only to learn later that both of them have been attacked by an army of red ants!!!

 

The length these gila aviation nuts go to get their shots!!! Sadly as Andrew said, these action shots will soon be a thing of the past . . . and we will have a bunch of images to cry over.

Really no other vantage points at Changi airport (except from inside the Terminal) ? :(

Yes, a trip to KUL is long over-due for many of us. We miss all the great action and the wonderful company that many at M-wings extended to us. And I miss the HUGE water-melon drink at Asia Cafe.

 

Kwek the joker? No . . . we joke at his expense, so he's the jokee.

 

Pieter C: There are other spots around changi, but it will all be sky shots.

Thanks a lot; in that case, I'll (still) be including SIN into my Far-East travel plans ;)
