The ones in 2-class layout is better because it got the the new Airbus interior with PTV in every seats. So anybody going ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Isaac 0 Report post Posted May 30, 2006 (edited) Going where ? To HKG or BKI (take pics only) ? LOL ! I will, if i'm the son of one of the Millionaires in Malaysia thanks for d information, Isaac. You're welcome this also make me sure that two days ago, Sunday the KA i saw is 330. at first i don believe it... Yes Sam, it was indeed KA 333. And it wasn't the first time they send their 333 here. I've seen KA had 2 flights into BKI in a day using their own aircraft, normally during the CNY season. btw, will u go spot it? maybe tomorrow i'll. I can't, Samuel. Because i will go for a movie with my friends tomorrow at Centre Point. Won't go home until 4.30PM. So i was hoping that one of us here can actually go and take the KA picture for us By the way, Sam/SV Choong, i will go to KUL this Friday, on MH051 (a 772) and back next Thu, on MH080 (a 772) Edited May 30, 2006 by Isaac Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyone caught her the other day ? 20 years - was at the same place looking out for KA's first ever commercial flight, to BKI. Times change, old habits don't !

Isaac 0 Report post Posted May 31, 2006 (edited) You can still find a daughter of a millionair to marry Hmm ...... Not a bad idea, i might consider it. LOL ! OK lah, let me at least try help you people save a trip to HKG and/or avoid some unnecessary loveless marriage !! Appreciate that we had to run from the car to catch this - a few disbelieving eyes focussed on looney father/son antics ! LOL ! You sound like Dr. Abbott here He likes to use the term looney father/son ... Hope to see some more pics ~!!!! Wait for Samuel Chy's. He was at the site just now, Adrian was probably there also. Dunno about 28 May, only managed time to go today. Anyone caught her the other day ? Yes, i did. I saw it just lifted off when i was in Lido buying egg tarts at "Prince Tart". It was in their corporate livery one. So, BI still using the 763's on this short-20minute stretch BKI-BWN ??? Only during peak season. I believe it's the same reason why KA flew in their 333 this week. Edited May 31, 2006 by Isaac Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pieter, it's a dragon, NOT snake ! In chinese culture, there is a very wide disparity between how a dragon and snake is percieved Glad to be of service somehow ! BI is getting quite erratic, it was a 319 the day before, then 763 yesterday. If I get time off, I might go see what they're sending today ! ..... Glad you caught the dragon For the record, I don't 'chase' the dragon !! Yeah, real happy. Especially after my *#$@! phone-cam failed me at the critical moment last time I saw the bird flying off !

Isaac 0 Report post Posted June 1, 2006 (edited) Samuel is there?!?!?!?! I was not imform by him that he's going to spot! I was whole day at home sleeping...... Ah ... Yeah, he was. But he sounded kind of rush. He said he will take only landing shot and then rush back home. And by the way guys, the registration of the KA 333 that they sent to BKI yesterday is "B-HWG". The plane is in 2-class configuration (J-42 / Y-273). It's the second KA 333 that has PTV (AVOD) in every seats. If i'm not mistaken, there are currently only 5x KA 333 that are in 2-class layout with PTV (AVOD) in every seats. Edited June 1, 2006 by Isaac Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
