Spotting from inside the airport terminal

[kianhong 0]

Sharing some spotting photos taken while on a short trip down to Singapore. Thought that it would be more appropriate to put this under Anjung Tinjau since most are a/c photos from KUL n SIN.

 

KUL > SIN > KUL (13-16 Mac 2007)

 

13 MAR 2007 KUL > SIN SQ117 B772ER 1850 1945

16 MAR 2007 SIN > KUL SQ116 B772ER 1700 1755

 

Some photos before boarding, taken at Level 3 Observation Deck near gate C27.

 

Papa Echo being towed back to terminal.

 

Oscar Hotel accross the runway, while construction continue at C27. <_>

 

 

Papa Kilo look sick.

 

My plane - Romeo Golf arrive an hour before my departure time.

 

While walking to my gate, more shots of Papa Echo.

 

 

 

Not forgetting Kilo Echo which parked right at gate C27.

Some nicely restored shop houses near my hotel.

wow... a like the JAL shot very much, look at the sky.

 

more more please...

Thanks SAM...

 

On my way back...

When you look at the tarmac of Changi Terminal 2, you will notice that this is a land of Boeing 777. Semuanya ada...

 

SQ is the world largest operator of B777, current 65 in fleet.

 

Man vs Machine

 

Tail

 

More Golden Bird tails...

 

 

 

 

Panorama of SQ Jumbo - Papa Hotel

You can also see a different kind of bird at Changi's T2.

 

Push back...

 

Engine Started n ready to go...

 

Look!!! Who's here lifting off from Runway 02R.

 

Ehh... mandarin orange. Opps... Mandarine Airlines. This A343 was formerly in China Airline paint.

 

Then, I walked all the way to other side of contact pier just to get the shot below.

 

Cold empty lounge with the huge jumbo behind.

 

Suddenly, saw this fella push back. Going to Newark, perhaps? First time for me to see a A345.

 

 

 

 

Prior to my plane push back, they switched runway to 20L. And I crossed path with this SQ B773 - Yankee Delta.

 

Didn't manage to catch any B77W though.

Kianhong,

 

Love your KUL/SIN shots a lot; it shows some different aspects of both airports

 

This shot would make it a great promotion-shot for SQ

Hat-off for your shot of the Jumbo

Nicely done... and the B&W effect brought in the mood... nice

[kianhong 0]

Thanks again guys!!

 

One more ... I was hoping that there's a kid standing infront of the jumbo with his on hand on glass panel. ** dreaming to fly the big plane when he grow up** Hehehe... wishful thinking.

 

[LW Wong 0]

LeeCH, err..can you tell us why cabin shots are not allowed in SQ flights?

[Seth K 3]

Next time, I'll do that for you!!! Wow, love the close up as well, but I think the horizontal/full view has more feelings
