Nizam 0 Report post Posted October 30, 2008 (edited) i think it was in 1994 or is it 1995..the An-124 created a buzz among the KCH residents because all local papers during that time reported "a BIG aircraft will land in KCH" and locals was invited to visit the aircraft in the afternoon..maybe it was carrying something BIG to KCH but i forgot what was it about Heheh, I got the chance to enter that big aircraft that time. After take off from Runaway 07, that big aircraft turn around and did a low fly pass to everybody at the airport Edited October 30, 2008 by Nizam Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LeeTZ 1 Report post Posted November 4, 2008 AirAsia A320 Flapless Landing AK5202(9M-AFA) Flapless landing around 0941hrs just now, I was noticed by it when there's an aircraft GO AROUND around 0900hrs, and was hold over BINAN for some standard procedures. The problem was identified as "Flight Control Flaps Locked" Zoom in as you can see the flaps were up. The aircraft landed, emergency vehicles were on standby for them, but no assistance were required and the plane was taxi to the bay. Kudos to the pilot !!
