[S V Choong 4]

This one is dedicated to you S. Chang... Don't think you went spotting yesterday as you were probably busy working!

 

First visit of Hibiscuit livery at NZAA was yesterday, while I was busy with something else argghhhhhh.......... The aircraft was 9M-MPB Shah Alam.

hey S V Choong...yea i'm from new zealand..

[S V Choong 4]

Oh raj, I think I remember you.... you are the Indian guy who stay in Mt Roskill as well, isn't that correct? I think I might have added you into my MSN a while ago, but sorry to say, you are currently in my ignore list Sorry I had to do that as I think one day you were asking me question and my boss was standing right beside of me asking, hey what is that? I think it is a sign to say "Don't ever use that again!" But anyway, you can see me again.

 

hahaha Gavin, that photo actually made it to the A.net pic of the day!

[Gavin Andrew David 6]

I feel as if the colour is just not there .

[Guest Fendy]

the colours are fine, its a great photo!

[Gavin Andrew David 6]

Yeah , I guess so , since even the screeners accepted it as photo of the day ..

hmmmm...

hey S V Choong yea that's me..

sorry abt dat..

by da way do you usually happened to go spotting at auckland???

 

[S V Choong 4]

No, I haven't been in a while. Last time I went was to see the 777-300ER...... it was sometime in May or June I think it was. Was supposed to go spotting with S. Chang, a member here, but he has been busy with work and hasn't showed up yet

Should MAS decide on new livery, I think they should use the Hisbiscus scheme as replacement. What do you all think?

I think they should come up with new idea's ..

Not just use the same one over and over again

Even if they did something on the tail like how BA does

It would at least be something to see .

But Malaysia Airlines wants to go all the way and just STOP there .

Hmmm .. Where's the progress

[Eugene Koh 4]

Hope MAS will make the Hisbiscus as their standard livery instead of promotional, just a wild wish! Imagine A380 in this livery, wow.

[Gavin Andrew David 6]

Wouldn't think that would happen due to the cost of painting the aircraft and all the excess weight .

 

I too am hoping that the A380 will feature a special livery as the current livery doesn't really look nice on the 388

[Guest Fendy]

actually, i like the current livery, especially on the 777s.

Me think the photo is good enough - it captures the "heavy" landing, which smokes when the gears touching the ground. And good saturation. Very dramatic.
