Hong Kong #5

Cathays Galore..... well, and a Dragon Air

Cathay Pacific B777-300 (B-HNE)

Cathay Pacific B777-200 (B-HNC)

The -300 is extended both before and after the wing (with almost equal length based on these pics). It's amazing how the same wingspan of the -200 is able to support the extended fuselage length of the -300.

Dragon Air A321-200 (B-HTI)

Don't get to see A321s in Penang.

 Cathay Pacific A330-300

Here's a shot of the cargo terminal before takeoffs. Would you just look at the number of 747s parked there. I count about 9, quite a number of them being the 748f.

And here's the runway just before the Captain aligns to it.

Bon Voyage Hong Kong... See you soon.

Hong Kong #3

Next on the list, is Cathay Pacific's 777-300 (B-HNJ). Another one of those long aircrafts. 

 Was supposed to be taking this type (-300) all the way to Narita after Hong Kong, whereby Seat 34K was like any other normal windowed seat. However for some reasons, Cathay changed it to a -200, making my 34K windowless... (NOOOOOOOOOOO) But thankfully, not much to snap after departing from Hong Kong and arriving to Narita (Night Time).

Then we have All Nippon Airways from Japan. ANA is a large operator of 767s. This is a -300ER version (JA618A).

Vietnam Airlines is one of those airlines such as Royal Jordanian, Korean Air, KLM and others that paint their aircrafts in full colour, instead of the majority white colour used by most airliners. I would guess that the painting costs are the same whether its white or other colours as the aircraft's first base colours are usually green (for Airbus). Anyway, here's the A321-200 reg VN-A367.

An airline from a neighbouring country, Royal Brunei Airlines A320 (V8-RBV), a smaller relative of the above A321.

And to conclude post #3, allow me to showcase the FLYING PANDA!! Quite glad to get this airline's aircraft in this special livery. ANA 767-300ER (JA606A)
