kianhong 0 Report post Posted November 21, 2007 (edited) Gibby! Stunning sky with stunning livery. Bravo !!! Thanks for sharing. Fokker 100 number 5 (7th for PER) VH-FNT (Formerly B-12297 as photographed by Kian Hong at XSP) is at Perth having the final touches done to its livery and having cargo fire surpression system installed, should be in service this time next month. It is being followed by atleast 1 more F100 for Skywest and Alliance, and 2 for turbo-prop operator Network Aviation! PER is getting like AMS! Wait wait... I'll be coming down to Perth soon to catch her again in her new dress. Hohoho... Edited November 21, 2007 by kianhong Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ignatius 4 Report post Posted December 5, 2007 Aiya, database big bang caused so many things down the black hole... but anyways... here's some to contribute to YPPH spotting pix... Liam, I think i can't make it Thursday for spotting, going back on friday morning... will be back early next year though... so no worries there.. but spotting under heliconian sky is excellent.. Saw this contrail, pretty rare to spot contrails here in Perth, here goes one... which later turn into a snake trail My first 717 :lol:Then it became the second Nailed this one as well landing on runwei 21 QF A330 returning from Singapore SQ from...... where else Singapore Wooo... winglet 737NG love YPPH traffic... But there are so many to shoot between runwei 21 and 24 , i can't rush between these two like supaman kekeke... enjoy... cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Peter Smith 1 Report post Posted December 6, 2007 Awesome stuff, Iggy! Will see you next time then Oh the contrail was from "Mauritius 943" opb A343 3B-NAV flying Melbourne to Mauritius. It typically flies much further south than this! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ignatius 4 Report post Posted December 6, 2007 I wondered what caused their course to deviate that far up?? It's even reported in 7 news i think.. hehehe.. cheers.. catch u sometime early next year mate.. cya.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kenneth T 0 Report post Posted December 6, 2007 A surprise for us here..keep posting Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ignatius 4 Report post Posted December 6, 2007 Kenneth, its also quite a surprise if i see it in Kch, because they're are rare... but to see a snake contrail in the air is amusing... it's beautiful one must say.. especially under the blue heliconian skies. International traffic are mostly concentrated in between early morning- around 11am, then the rest will come in at about 14-1700hrs, then the next wave is due at sometime before midnite.... so its quite quiet, but is well complimented by the busy buzzing domestic traffics which i am more interested in,.. so many small airlines with great liveries and a/c types.. but i'll nail them again next year whenever possible... with Perth spotters off course... Arrrgghh, back to kch again... YPPH, I'll be back hehehe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Peter Smith 1 Report post Posted December 8, 2007 Not exactly new to Australia, as it has been based in Sydney for a couple of years now, but new to Perth is Challenger 604 VH-MZL which was delivered during the week to Perth to its new owners as a replacement for Citation Sovereign VH-EXA...ain't she just lovely Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TK 0 Report post Posted December 8, 2007 604 looks sleek... when they stretch it to become a CRJ...i kind of NOT like it. but cruising around Mach 0.74...as good as a 737!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peter Smith 1 Report post Posted December 8, 2007 TK, I agree with the CRJ-200 comments, I don't like it nearly as much. I do like the CRJ-700 though! There is one CRJ-200 I like, and its the only one i've been in...ok I lie, its really a Challenger 850: VH-LEF Here's a good website showing CL604 specs...click me! high speed cruise is M.84, average is M.79/.80 and long range is as you said M.74 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ignatius 4 Report post Posted December 8, 2007 Nice Challenger there Liam, you took those pix from outside the perimeter fence rite? Or were u on the tarmac? i asume it was taken somewhere near one of the small airline terminal near at the domestic airport ?? Love it all , show us more...

Norman 1 Report post Posted December 8, 2007 Yeah.... nice 604... & nice cam.... seen that no longer from Casio calculator now... a D70 it seems... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peter Smith 1 Report post Posted December 8, 2007 Cheers guys, Iggy that was take at Mulataga seafood (the white building between Maroomba and Alpha Catering). Norman, yes, given the D70 a run...I should really start using it more, I really only use it when I come to KL to keep TK happy...hahahaha, only j/k, no its just too bulky to take to work, so I only get to use a lot when i'm on holidays. I promise to take my calculator more to work from now on! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
