Recommended Posts

Passed by the airport today, saw an all white Fokker 100 taxiing in front of the tower around 1600, i think it is PH-ABX. Theres also a Bell 412 parked at the GA apron since yesterday. Sorry,didn't manage to get any photos.

A surprising morning at PEN today!

 

I arrived just before 8am to see if I could get Perdana 2. Thanks for the heads-up MIR. That came down the approach just before 8.15am with the sun only just appearing.

It departed, on Rwy 22, around 9.37am.

 

About 15 minutes later. this little Thai registered ultra-light came in.

Interesting 45 Minutes!

 

As I was working on the computer around 12.25pm today, I heard a helicopter passing overhead Batu Ferringhi. When I checked out of the window, I saw what looked very much like a CH53 heading NW towards Langkawi.

 

Anyone got info on that?

Excellent shots, LaurieB. I guess the helicopter you saw is involved in the Cobra Gold 2012 military exercise.

Only the Raja Permaisuri Agong came to Penang, if i'm not mistaken she arrived last Monday or Tuesday in the GLEX.

 

Rumored that a Fokker 100 might arrive PEN on 18/03 from Nagpur,India. Skywest c/s with Dutch rego (PH-LMY).

 

Also, look out for foreign military aircraft into PEN and BWH end of this month..Excerise Bersama Shield 2012 :yahoo:

Nice shots LaurieB, great light and colour saturation! :)

 

Does anyone know if there is an anjung tinjau at the newly renovated terminal?

Thanks flee.

 

I was wondering if there would be an anjung tinjau in the new terminal too. Haven't seen any mention of it so far.

 

The old A & W outlet on the first floor of the old terminal before its previous renovation was always a good spot. Pity that disappeared.

Rumoured the Delta B763 planned to depart Penang for Narita yesterday as 'Delta 8820'..not sure if it has already left PEN or has been delayed.
