Air Atlanta B747 classic

Recommended Posts

Some one did ask about the registration of ex Air Atlanta/Saudia B747 parked at KLIA but I am not sure the title of the forum. Anyway, they are TF-ARM and TF-ARN

Everytime I land at KLIA will pass by these three birds. So sad looking. May I know are they up for scrap? If yes, how can I buy one to keep as souvenir?

 

There used to be four initially, all parked along each other. One had been scrapped I think.

How about the registration of this 747 also parked at KLIA looking very sad? :(

Indeed it is sad-looking. Looks like it is tilted to one end and using its flaps as support (maybe eyes playing tricks with me). Left wing landing gear missing??

Anyone knows the whereabouts of TF-AAA and TF-AAB is? These two birds are former MAS and MASkargo's B747-236B rego 9M-MHI and 9M-MHJ.

Have they been scrapped?

They were once used for Haj flights, correct ? I flew on one of Air Asia B747-200 operated by Air Atlanta Icelandic 12 years ago!! from BKI to SZB. The Air Asia back then was in transition period from a full service airline to a low-cost carrier. It was one of the last few flights operated as a full service airline.

Yes, these are leased for Hajj flight, some for shipping cargo too. AirAsia leased four B747-200 for Hajj previously.
