Ewan Shamsudin 0 Report post Posted November 22, 2007 Hello fellow spotters, KBR/WMKC is not a busy airport. However, if you're back in KBR and the spotting bug in you begs to take flight, here is a guide for you, compiled from MH, FY and AK websites. There are 11 scheduled flights coming in and departing from KBR but only eight is 'spottable' in the daytime. All flights operated daily except MH1384/MH1385 which only run on Mon, Wed and Fri. Apart from these scheduled flights, there are also small aircraft buzzing in and out like mosquitoes... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Radzi 2 Report post Posted November 22, 2007 KBR now is an interesting airport to spot. Forget about those MH and AK. Their pictures are everywhere. Concentrate on the helicopters and the training aircraft as their pictures are rare. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ewan Shamsudin 0 Report post Posted November 22, 2007 Hehehe... perhaps if shot against the airport terminal they'd be not so generic? Hope my 18-200 will be able to catch those small planes well. I mean, they are so small... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rozhan 0 Report post Posted November 22, 2007 Reminds me of 'spotting' during lessons while in Form 5, where we had the uppermost floor and aircraft taking off were always a welcome distraction. The trees as in the pictures either weren't there yet or still short. We used to cross over to MPKB campus when there was no water at school (which led to numerous perigi dug during my time) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rozhan 0 Report post Posted November 23, 2007 Yes Fitri, where you get the best Dewan Makan Ikan Jaket Besi Sambal. He he.... must be the ikan merah thing. Still in the menu then?!! We used to smash the metal trays on to the waste bin (in protest) whenever less-than-appetizing food was served. Also recalled orange coloured 'kaya' out of tin cans with 'Hak Milik Kerajaan' printed on it. Oh well! By the way, wonder what will become of the old KBR terminal. It is sad to see it abandoned last time I went. I was disappointed with the anjung tinjau in the new terminal as it only allows partial view of the runway, and green tinted glass. Very bad for spotting and photography. But at least there is one as most other airports have none at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
