Ignatius 4 Report post Posted September 30, 2007 I think Samuel is trying to tell us besides having an unlevel pix posted in the papers, the flight number is also telling us Fax is DZ(Dizzy) 1530 , am i right Sam? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rozhan 0 Report post Posted September 30, 2007 MAS is maintaing the planes already now and I have seen them doing work on Twin Otter at Miri. Wonder what rego the plane is. For it to go through turbulence is bad enough, what more failed engines and plane losing altitude. Anyway excellent airmanship in such trying situation.

EddieDaniel 0 Report post Posted October 1, 2007 (edited) With such a reputation, I hope that they will not stretch the aircraft utilisation so they can fly Xtra Long Hours....It is not good news for people who fear their safety is compromised and with such a cheaper fares...I wonder how much they spend on engine servicing and maintenance...God knows!

Teoh Z Yao 0 Report post Posted October 3, 2007 Cool, instead of saying "losing altitude", it reports "losing attitude," which invariably causes a "lose of altitude"... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
