Jonathan Kong 0 Report post Posted July 4, 2005 went to KLIA on 02-07-2005 for spotting... not a bad day for spotting is it FedDex? Air Macau? Oh no it's Thai in new colour! Arrgg... never have the luck to catch the Golden falcon. Always get the old colour. Maybe i should buy an airticket to go spotting at Bahrain Really powerful rotation... Their airplane is always super clean Back to Bangkok. Not a fan of this colour scheme. What about you? Bound for Taipei and LAX. Early rotation enables me to get this kind of shot For Imran! First time seeing Iran Air. Classic right? Arriving early but not B773ER today Another surprise today. SQ sent in B777-300. Rego is 9V-SYA Another B777-300 arriving at late afternoon Took this at 7.20pm... light was minimum... ISO 320 Who said you can't take photos when there is no light? Took this at 7.30pm. ISO 400, shutter speed was 1/80 Hope you guys enjoy the pictures! Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gavin Andrew David 6 Report post Posted July 4, 2005 Hey jonathan . Nice shots . but then streamyx is running kind of slow today and it took quite awhile to load your shots but they're really really worth the wait . lucky to get the Thai in new colours . haven't seen that one yet . Didn't get a shot of the Iran arriving in the evening ah ? Really regret not going spotting . Missed the 773 by SQ . And I just love the SQ T7's .. damn it ... 9M-PMW . Third last 732 to be manufactured . hmm . lucky you . Is it run by Transmile air ? And guys , say hello to your Observation Hill Moderator Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Radzi 2 Report post Posted July 4, 2005 That 732 is operated by transmile, by virtue of its registration. For whom, that is another question. Jon, ISO 320 or 3200? BTW, new zoom, power lah....Hey, I know lah, my sources told me... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
