Guest Fendy Report post Posted June 25, 2005 hey guys. recently went on a short trip to langkawi. on the last day, as i was driving to the airport, i saw a plane on finals, and decided to stop and take a few shots. it was MAS A330 9M-MKX on our flight to KUL, we overflew PEN... finally, while descending in KUL, this was spotted out the window: i think its a 747... not sure what airline though... i hope you liked my short photo post thanks for viewing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rozhan 0 Report post Posted June 26, 2005 I tried shooting video in that area (LGK) last year and got some nice footage of 9M-MKX which I flew on earlier, taking off. Then I waited for MH 7 coming in for landing. A good place to shoot still pictures, but for video, the sound of passing vehicles drown out the sweet sound of the planes' engines Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pieter C. 5 Report post Posted June 30, 2005 Ken, It's definitely a 747: see those kinda trails a lot overhere of (mainly) flights from Germany to the US/Canada. The trails are like that as the engines are a bit angled outward as viewed from the front...thrust is, therefor, about 10 degrees (rough guess) to the outward sides.
