Didn't remember you're one of the FO that time. May be becoz you're hiding(busy) in the cockpit. Yes FO Meor :D .. I remember that name.. he was on the first leg of the flight VIE-DXB.

 

Some details of the aircraft and the flight.. It was 9M-MQO and it was there on a dry leased to Lauda Air thru Boeing Co. Why thru Boeing?.. coz of late delivery of Lauda's 737 and MAS have excessive acft at that time.. so MH lease it to Lauda after one year in service.. The aircraft still in MAS c/s coz it serve Lauda for short period of time..

 

My manager and I was there to do end-of-lease insp, borescope insp and some paper work clearance. And as a bonus we met with Lauda Air CEO.. Mr. Lauda himself.. There were no seat install on first class area coz Lauda's wanted to use their own FC seats. So the empty area was left for us to do anything we like :yahoo: ..

 

The flight was MH5401 on 11 August 1998.. VIE-DXB-MAA-KUL(SZB).. on first leg VIE-DXB, manned by a Capt and FO Meor.. and total 4 POB.. on 2nd and 3rd leg.. a new set of crew, a Capt and 2 FO (FO TK) came in during refueling transit in DXB and POB is 7.. still left plenty of room for us to play around :rofl: .

 

I didn't take that photo coz I am in the the photo :rofl: but using my old dark sider F70.. some of my other shots. Sorry no pic of MQO coz of photography restriction in the hangar..

 

Austrian Airlines Maintenance Hangar also used by Lauda Air.

Paper work - lots of them, ey? Pre-flight planning, weight & balance yada yada yada... On Flying Days, I will usually be pushing the Piper Cherokees out of the hangar whilst the pilots crunch on numbers and draw lines on papers.

 

Amazing how the aerobridges "wrap around" the fuselage :)

 

777 is so far way safer than the concorde, but maybe 50 years from now, it'll be a legend - a very good one I say! ;)

 

Aha! They're using rwy25 here in SYD!! Let's check what's on schedule...
