Melaka spotting

Padang? I thought only to SZB and MED start on 21st Nov.

 

That's a bit late to cater to the Hajj crowd as the season's practically over, and the Umrah season only begins sometime in Q1 next year. Furthermore, it will have to be a multistop journey for an ATR. Must be a miserable journey for the pilgrims in a such a small cabin doing probably 14hrs overall.

 

However, on a totally separate note, the largest city in Sumatra attracts visitors year round with many flights per day linking it to M'sia, unlike that other city in the Middle East.

I think the "MED" refers to "Medan"

The Sikorsky S-92 just arrived yesterday (28-Nov), and according to one of the staff (Sikorsky?), it will stay at MKZ till tomorrow. There will be some demo flights today, but too bad I have to work.

 

It is stationed at the SPAERO hangar right opposite of the airport control tower.
