From an aerodrome that saw countless departures every minute, now it has gone down to frequencies even lower than that of Penang. Nevertheless, there is still the opportunity to get photos.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">The interesting about the session that day was the weather. (Hint: Not.Optimal.At.All). Upon arrival, there were low clouds moving towards the direction of the AD. The morning sun helped to give light from an angle, illuminating the planes, but the issue was that the planes were going INTO the clouds, disappearing from sight.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">One of the best combinations was with this Air HongKong freighter.

It was incredibly quieter than a lot of other jets operating, even with the takeoff power being set. A few more narrowbody arrivals before we hit the conclusion. I cannot imagine how the 5-hour ride would be from Kuala Lumpur on a narrowbody. Personally, I feel those as long as 3 hours are still bearable, but not all the way here to Perth.</div>

SQ's 330 were on one of their last few flights into Perth. They probably operated for a few more days before it was replaced with the 787. Seems like the days of their 330s are numbered, as more efficient aircraft like the 787s and 350s are received.</div>

The next 2 look rather small through the viewfinder from this distance. Compared with the other jets that come in, these are tiny. But stand right next to them, and you'll realise that they are actually quite big.</div>

It has also become a trend by airlines (MAS, BA, Lufthansa etc) all over the world to churn out their retro livery, and Qantas has also followed on. Here's the Retro Roo. Just recently found out that QANTAS actually stands for Queensland and Northern Territory Aerial Services (did I mention this already?)<br />

Hello hello once again, it has been quite some time since my last post. Managed to head over to the viewing gallery of Perth International Airport with a few friends. The viewing gallery sits right at the threshold of Runway 03 (2 runways at Perth, 03-21 and 06-24), and lucky for us, 03 was in use for arrivals the entire time we were there. It is an elevated spot which gave unobstructed views to the runway.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This was sort of the first spotting opportunity I had since I arrived and it was an amazing one.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Now quickly heading off to our first catch of the day and this already put a smile to my face. One that we do not see very often (if not at all) in the SEA region, a quad-high-wing regional jet.</div>

2 months into the New Year and it has been great indeed. Here's wishing all readers Happy New Year, and may 2019 be as incredible, if not more that of 2018. Had the opportunity to do a little bit of spotting while in the Perth area.<br />
<br />
Flying into Perth was really bumpy. Went through a few air pockets where you literally see people lifted off their seats. With me sitting at the middle section, I had no view of the surroundings at all, so all I could do was to look in the cabin. Someone's water from their cup even went up to the overhead bin.</div>

And what a coincidence, parked next to us were 2 Malaysian birds. Malindo's 738 and AirAsia X's A333. A Thai A333 arrived almost at the same time as well and this added to the long queue at immigration (almost an hour).</div>

About 20 minutes South of Perth, is Jandakot Airport, a smaller airport that is mainly used for flight training, the Royal Flying Doctor Service as well as a hub for aerial firefighting vehicles. Some charter flights also operate from this airport. Most aircraft are props, with the occasional few business jets and the sole PC-24 of the RFDS.</div>

The Royal Aero Club of Western Australia (RACWA) is one of the bigger public flying schools in the area, operating mainly Cessna 172s and 152s. They made the place up quite well, with an outdoor viewing platform that directly overlooks the parking bay.</div>

Managed to squeeze another session at Changi Beach before leaving Singapore. This was a rather short session as I was all the way in the middle of Singapore doing some exploration. Only managed to arrive later in the evening when the sun was setting and when the clouds rolled in.</div>

Quite a number of arrivals were on the other runway, and with low light and having the subject way too far away, not many nice shots were taken. Was glad that this "Dugong" came. The same one I caught during the last session.</div>

And I still remembered when Scoot (Tigerair) first came in their new livery on the narrowbody jets. Was so excited to see them in Penang. Most of their fleet is now in this livery and only a handful of jets are either in all-white or white with Scoot stickers.</div>

Now for the third and final part of this spotting session, we shall shift the focus back to the heavyweights. This session was originally meant solely to get the arrival of the <a href="https://reachingtheskiesabove.blogspot.com/2018/09/singapore-airlines-a350-ulr-delivery.html" target="_blank">ULR A350</a>, but with so much traffic coming in, one just can't help but continue snapping. First up, Scoot's 787-9.</div>

And I must say, it was an amazing experience at Changi Beach. It was my first time, but definitely not going to be my last time spotting here. Everything is so convenient. You have a clear view of the approach, there are trees blocking the sun, it is by the beach so you can sit on the sand if needed, and there is a restroom nearby. It is indeed a spotter's paradise. And the traffic... WOW. The only little thing that I had to deal with was the chance of missing some arrivals as they were performing parallel approaches. Lufthansa's 350 all went the other side.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Only have another (rather short) session at Changi Beach. After that, it is back to the Penang files.</div>

This one is one of SQ's main workhorse. The 777 one of the greatest aircraft that has been built, with a very good safety record too. It all started with the 777-200, but in a few years, we will be seeing the updated 777x family, with folding wingtips.</div>

And now for the barrage of narrowbody aircraft. It was originally dominated by A and B, 320s and 737s, but with newer and newer entries like the Bombardier C series (or now the A220), would be great to see the variations.

A few weeks back, I had the opportunity to do some photography at Changi Beach. The area is really spotter friendly with good lighting, good shade and restrooms available. Was there to get the arrival of SQ's ULR 350 and it was beautiful. Here's the <a href="https://reachingtheskiesabove.blogspot.com/2018/09/singapore-airlines-a350-ulr-delivery.html" target="_blank">link to the photos</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This post shows the other "normal" traffic you would usually get at Changi. You get such a great selection from all over the world. You would however miss the ATR turboprops as not many fly into Changi.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">

One advantage Penang airport had was that there was only 1 runway, so all arrivals are on that particular one, Runway 04. Occasionally the winds change and they come from the other direction. At Changi, when arrivals are from the North, there's a chance that aircraft may land on 20R (where I was) or 20C, slightly further off, beyond the reach of 300mm, as you will see below.</div>

Fun fact, the designations Super and Heavy are for the controllers, and pilots to know how big the aircraft are and how much wake turbulence they generate, and how much separation is required between them and the aircraft following them. Wake turbulence can be a serious thing, especially if you are a small aircraft travelling too close to a huge one like the A380 as it can cause your plane to be tossed around.</div>

Up next is the longest variant of the 737 family, the -900 series. 737s usually have 4 pairs of doors, one up front, one at the rear and 2 over the wings. This one, to cater for the increase passenger capacity has an extra pair just behind the wing.</div>

I'm back after a few months and here I am in sunny Singapore. Finally got the chance to visit the famous Changi Beach. There were quite a few <span style="font-size: xx-small;">(seriously a lot more within such a short time compared to what I usually get in Penang)</span> catches which will be posted when I do have the opportunity.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
But now, to the main topic. SIA is known for their ultra-long-haul flights direct to Newark and Los Angeles using the A340-500 aircraft. These direct flights however were stopped in November 2013 as they were not profitable with the "fuel guzzlers".</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Now, the route is seeing the light again with the arrival of the A350ULR (Ultra Long Range). So 2 engines, same distance, much lower fuel consumption.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Here's the first one, coming all the way from Toulouse, France routing via the North Pole, as SQ8895. <a href="https://www.airliners.net/photo/Singapore-Airlines/Airbus-A350-941ULR/5204545/L" target="_blank">Photo Link</a></div>

Korean Air Cargo departed at 9am, as per the usual departure slot. The 77Fs are the more common type now. Only on some days will be get the glimpse of the 74F. Hoping for their 748F to visit soon. Here's the rotation shot, just as the nose gear lifts off.</div>

Now just as I am about to call it a day, I spot something rather interesting on FR24. A 747, on its descend somewhere off the coast of Phuket. This meant only one thing, it was headed to Penang (my mind just casts off possibilities of it heading elsewhere, too quick to be descending for KL anyway). So I waited. and here she is, all the way from Azerbaijan.</div>

Upon checking the flight tracker, MH1138 was already on route to Penang, with about 20 minutes of flight time left. So the only thing was to head back to the arrival site. Red Cap came in shortly upon arrival.</div>

With Malaysia Airlines taking delivery of their first and second A350, they are sending them to Penang, Bangkok and even to KK for training purposes before they are sent on the long-haul flights. Let's start off with an overhead shot.</div>

This next session was aimed at catching MAC's first visit to Penang. Did not managed to get it this round as they were delayed for about almost an hour plus, and I arrived just after SilkAir's B737-8 MAX landed (grr). Anyway, here are the other ones that arrived. UPS are using their 757 these few days. 757s are such versatile aircraft. Read somewhere that they are now still in demand due to their performance.</div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Malaysia Airlines have just taken delivery of their latest aircraft, the A350 and are doing short-haul runs between Kuala Lumpur and Penang (MH1140 / MH1145) throughout the month of December, providing more than enough opportunity to catch it. Their second A350, (9M-MAC) with the Negaraku Livery will be coming shortly, so got to look out for that too. Now for the photos.</div>

For an aircraft (and engine) of that size, it is surprisingly quiet, gracefully gliding past. It comes equipped with the new wingtip devices as well as very bright white landing lights. Also glad that they finally got the logo, the Wau in correct position, without chopping any part off.</div>

There was a slight drizzle after the Korean 777 which prevented me to get the arrival shot of the next one, but on the taxi run, the skies cleared. That's Penang weather for you. This one had the "Turn Back Crime" livery.</div>

The second FedEx jet of the day came from Singapore. A 767. One of the 767 would depart sometime around 2pm. Have always wanted to catch the departure of the MD-11s back when they still operate, but had always took it for granted that they would forever be there. To those of you out there, if you to do something, do it as soon as you can as you might never know when you might not have the opportunity again. And I'm not just referring to photo taking here. Do what you gotta do.</div>

Neptune Air B737-3S3(SF) (9M-NEF)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As far as I know, Neptune Air doesn't operate on weekends. She only departs on weekdays to Singapore. Was pleasently surprised. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The 737-300 series can be considered a classic (at least in my mind). The rough edges, lack of winglets and very loud engines. This was once an airliner that was capable of carrying up to 140 passengers back in the late 80s, before it was converted to a freighter (hence SF) in the early 90s. Been with many airlines before coming to Neptune Air.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Was kinda over the moon with this shot, and was satisfied. Head over to the last place, to get some arrival shots. The road has been widened, but that doesn't stop people from enjoying the wonderful spotting activiy (me included).</div>

Did not have my wide lens with me this round (dang it!) so could only get some long shots. Took this opportunity to just admire the queen as she glided to the runway. Being so close, the experience was just amazing. I do have to quote a friend of mine who commented about this experiece "My view is all filled with with that plane. IN HD!!!"<br />

With a cloudy weather, one second, you get to see a plane fully illuminated by the sun, the next, completely covered by the clouds.<br />

And here we are, Part 2. Starting off with the A320NEO's departure. It is always fun to see larger aircraft heading your direction. Again, for those who may have missed <a href="http://reachingtheskiesabove.blogspot.my/2017/10/spotting-session-21-oct-part-1.html" target="_blank">part 1</a>, departing aircraft had to use Taxiway B for some reasons. This gave me good opportunity to capture head-on shots of them.</div>

Slowly turning onto the runway</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
Having discovered my little fondness of taking head-on shots, there I was, getting ready to get a closer view of the 777. Just as I clicked the shutter at the point where it is so well aligned, my camera froze. YEP!! It froze. The mirror was locked up and it was saving the photo (light was blinking faster than Christmas Lights).<br />
<br />
Waited for a bit for the photo to be saved, but it was taking too long. The engines were spooling up and if I were to wait any longer, I might very well miss the departure shots. Of course one might argue that I have had shots like those but it is different for each plane. You understand that (right?).<br />

This pilot must've tried to give the passengers the best landing experience. Very smooth touchdown on the mains with the flare still present till after Bravo TW.</div>

Was waiting around when I heard the powering up of the engines of the 737. Looked sideways and there I saw Malindo's 738 doing a go-around. Looks like they were unable to hit the touchdown point as they were quite high as they passed the runway threshold.</div>

There are not that many cosmetic differences between the -500 and the -600 versions. The only thing that separates them (for Firefly that is) is the black paint around the cockpit. Nothing else.</div>

Time for a flashback to the previous sessions at Penang. I would usually want to keep up to date and post up as I spot, but <strike>sometimes </strike>most of the times, other things get in the way. So here's what's up on the 25th September 2016. I honestly had no idea why I was there, but I guess it was due to me having a camera and being rather free at that point. Plus it was the afternoon session, a time which I rarely spot at. Let's start with the lightweights.</div>

Starting off with the departure of the Korean freighter to Seoul. <span style="text-align: justify;">I remember how I'd always hoped for the 777 freighter to come to town instead of the 74F. Guess that made me forget how enjoyable the 74Fs were. Now they only send the 77F and on the rare occassions the 74Fs. Oh well.</span><br />

Then I was treated with the departure of an A320NEO. I must say once again how quiet these aircraft are. Their takeoff run with full engine thrust was as silent as the CFMs engines at <b>idle reverse</b>.</div>

If China Southern can change their fleet from A320s to A321s, one can hope for them to change to something bigger too (I don't know a 757 perhaps? though maybe not too suited for this PEN-CAN leg).<br />

So the for the entire week, I've been greeted by MH's A330. You know when you first hear a heavy coming out of PEN at 8am, you would think it is Dragonair's 330. But upon closer inspection (well just a glance to the sky), MH's distinct woosh livery is seen. Checking later revealed that they were operating flights to and from Jeddah via MH8086 and MH8083. Yippee for me. Time for spotting.</div>

2 330s at Penang. A lovely sight</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Being an avid planespotter, nothing excites me more than seeing so many widebodies in one frame. Two 330s, a 777 Freighter and an A321, something that China Southern only recently started to send.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Then took a gamble on the position to capture the departure of this beauty. On one hand, from this location, it would guarantee a rather good shot of the aircraft rocketing down the runway, though all whells would be on the ground. On the other hand, being further down the runway <i style="font-weight: bold;">could</i> give me a departure shot but steady hands are required as the plane would be much faster there (lighting was atrocious and it was rather Hazy).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Decided to try something different and went for the departure shot. First catch was Thai Smile</div>

And finally, the main catch for the day. I would say that gambled paid off, maybe not so in full but it was worth it. The exact rotation point was blocked by that wee tree you see on the bottom left. This shot is fine enough though. They used almost the full runway for takeoff as this is the exact same point where KA was in the shot above.</div>

It was time to head off to the airport for my flight.As we had to return our rental car at 12, I had a good 4 hours to roam around before I got on my plane. Once at the airport, a slight itch developed. The MIEC was a mere 10-minute walk from the airport.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

You guessed it. I went back to the MIEC static display. I felt I did not get enough during the first day.</div>

First up was the RMAF's helicopter workhorse. Under the scorching heat, the insides of it were relatively cool. Had a nice chat with the crew inside and came to know that the Nuri is a very reliable machine. Come good or bad weather, it still flies.</div>

Followed by their main combat aircraft, the F-15SG. These came with a barrage of armaments that could be fitted to the aircraft. If you look closely at the sides of the engine intake, you can also see their Conformal Fuel Tanks (CFT) which boosts their fuel capacity.<br />

Next to the Eagle was the Malaysian Army's A109LUH helicopter. One rather big movable contraption caught my eye.<br />

Something which I missed during the last LIMA is now here in beautiful conditions. Just look at the beast. Next time, perhaps we can see it in the air.<br />
<br />
This IL-76 was parked near the edge of the display area. Like 2 years ago, the helicopters were parked at the very end of the tarmac. As it was really hot and really out of the way, there weren't many people around save for a few avid photographers. Here's a Globemaster before the choppers.<br />

Although it is not visible, this photo was actually taken right above the barriers, which explains why the area in front of the aircraft was devoid of people. Anyway, here's a Lynx, and its location in relation to the Globemaster.<br />

Now this (finally) ends the LIMA 2017 coverage. It was a great time there and I am glad that there were things that were here that were missing the last time, such as the Russian Knights and the Black Eagles, and of course the IL-76. Was hoping for at least an airliner to be parked and open for viewing.<br />
<br />
Looking forward to the next airshow, Singapore Airshow 2018.<br />
