On the other hand, Novair, which is Air Europa also comes every 2 weeks on 3 months time, starting from 5 Dec 2012 to 13 March 2013.

 

So, we can expect 2 kinds of europe flights, one from Arlanda, Stockholm and the other one from Helsinki.

I saw 6-7 of them holding their hands together for the parajumpers. It makes a huge attraction for all visitors at that time. :clapping:

However, at the mean time, no flights were allowed on that time.

 

At the mean time, there's one white B737 BBJ at the apron. Any idea about that plane? :closedeyes:

Didn' t see a white BBJ here on Saturday, but for the final sky dive on Saturday evening, there was a reception here at the Meritus Pelangi hotel which included a former Prime Minister and a high ranking air force official, so could have been connected with that.

 

Interesting arrival as the Casa took off for the final drop at 1800 was Cessna Citation 750 with reg N750CW. Not sure when it departed.

 

The Casa M44-04 returned to base (presumably Subang)on Sunday morning.

Merry Xmas to all MWingers......

 

Noted departing here at 0900hrs, the Air Asia flight to Singapore (presumably AM1702) aircraft unidentified but conspicuous by having the wing tip extensions (Airbus term - sharklets)!!!

Was aware that Air Asia is the first customer to procure these, but thought these new aircraft were not being delivered until next year. Or are they retrofitting current airframe?

Sharklet aircraft 9M- AQQ already been in and out this morning.......so if doing the same routing should be back around lunchtime.
