Good coverage, MIR. :good: Thanks for sharing.

 

As left PER at around 1820LT, the aircraft was still sitting at the gate. Look like a not so smooth inaugural flight. Hydraulic problem?

AirAsia X should depart at 4.05PM but it was delayed...

I waited..and waited.. still no sign of AirAsia X is going to depart. I took a closer shot under its belly..

HYDRAULIC FAILURE ??? Rosak ??

More than 1 hour delay...i gave up and went back home.

 

Thanks for viewing !! :drinks:

Another AirAsia X flight will depart from KUL at 12.05AM, arriving Perth at 6.55AM. I think they will send 9M-AAX tomorrow.
