Waiping 12 Report post Posted May 5, 2008 Maybe a bit OT, if both Khaled and Ewan shot the same photo as above, what's the effect with/without the lens hood? Besides that, i also find a website which gives the flight status like what time and what airlines...useful for spotters..go to http://www.flightstats.com/go/FlightStatus...mp;x=5&y=11 Interesting! Got ANA flying to Labuan! Seems like AK got 1 flight canceled everyday that affect BKI lah. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BC Tam 2 Report post Posted May 5, 2008 Maybe a bit OT, if both Khaled and Ewan shot the same photo as above, what's the effect with/without the lens hood? I would be more interested in the effect with/without protective head gear - look, one is well sheltered, the other sans a strand of hair even Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Khaled 2 Report post Posted May 5, 2008 I was using the desert survival technique...hehe....thus covering the neck.... Anyway, here's my take. Shown here Ewan with his gear...spying on us... Sam a bit shy with his big gun...too long can't even fit my picture...huhu We were waiting for MasKargo but she arrived at night instead, so we settled for something smaller... presenting the classic MMB!!!!! gracefully she flew towards the touchdown point... AFE making her usual nose high landing... The charter plane also quite busy...she took off about 1 hour later for a trip to Layang-layang... Then another vintage came in MMD Also classic from Air Asia...AAF...flew by japanese lady pilot!!!!Arigato!!! Hait!!! MMI touchdown smoothly... That was a nice spotting trip. Thank you for bringing me to the airport and good lunch as well... Seems to short...what to do must go work also...huhuhu..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
