Or somebody had nothing better to do, throw stones at it while on the tarmac/ramp? Edited July 11, 2008 by Yusoff Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andrew Hunt 0 Report post Posted July 13, 2008 Following on from the other thread "Lakeside Arrivals 14L" some shots from 14R Saturday afternoon was great fun. You guys have a great location there! Enjoyed the shallow departure of the MAS Kargo B747.....just refused to climb! Always enjoy a hybrid, and this one is no exception! There was already a IL76 parked at Cargo.....so who would have guessed that we get another one. That must be unique for KLIA, two IL76s!! On Sunday, I had already decided to make a move back to Singapore after lunch with Big Jon. As I went to my car, I suddenly remembered the Yemenia A332. Whilst Jon and I were having lunch, there was a big rainstorm, and I thought my chances were burned. We rushed off to try, with Jon skidding his car on the way, it was quite scary to watch....Jon change those rear tyres please! And when we arrived out went Yemenia into another approaching thunderstorm with the blackest of black skies, but it was bathed in sunlight! It was a fitting last shot for my trip to KUL.....! Enjoy Andrew Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Norman 1 Report post Posted July 14, 2008 oooh...russians!!! i've seen one of them last week, but i guess non of our spotters were there. Those Russians didn't move at all when I was there in the afternoon... joining Jon & HjMaarof.. However... we stayed put for a while until it rained.. But before that... BI sent in a heavyweight, caught her departing... When GA gonna send in their heavies?... MH Cargo always heavy... CI Cargo heavy too... QR was heavy as well... But for BR... eventhough using heavy callsign suffix... was lightweight.. Ex Hibby 'heavy'... now known as Seremban only.. Two new aircraft for AK in new font... AHL blink-blink and AHN ... new..new... compare to old font... blink-blink too and must show at least one regular... for Idham.. thats all for an hour and a half spotting... including rain..

Tamizi Hj Tamby 1 Report post Posted July 17, 2008 Wow,IL-76 with new engines? From Wikipedia,looks like it's fitted with quiter and more economical Aviadvigatel(Soloviev) PS-90 engines.It's the IL-76TD-90VD (correct me if i'm wrong here).Other infos:PS 90 is also used for IL-96,Tu-204 and Tu-214.
