Subang Airport, Kuala Lumpur - WMSA (Several Pics!)

[ZZ330]

Only had my small point-and-shhot, but managed to snatch a few shots after delivering a jet for servicing to Subang Airport... flew home with Air Asia in an A340 on their very comfy Premier seats, but got no pics at KL as the weather was hideous!!!!

Cool post

Did you take the 330 to it's destination?

[ZZ330]

Hi Peter, yes I did... 12hrs and 20 mins direct from Manchester. A long old flight!

Nice shots ZZ.

Subang is a place that I haven't visited yet. Interesting line-up there. Have to take a trip down sometime.

The 737 in Pic 7 looks to be MAS 734, 9M-MME.

Thanks for that DCK... I knew I recognised the stripes on the side of the 737 just couldn't put an airline name to them. It was a fascinating airfield, just whish I had had more time! After a 12 hour flight I was ready for bed!!

Nice photo's, Can you just stroll around the apron? Or did you have someone with you?

[ZZ330]

Hi Radleigh,

Thanks, no, sadly you cannot just walk along the line. I had just taken the A330 in to the airport so had the opportunity to wander around a wee bit where the first few pics were taken from... the last few were taken from the minibus that took myself and the rest of the crew to immigration and I managed to snatch a few as we sped past!

Sorry I didn't mean joe public wonder, I meant yourself as the pilot.. I never got to that part of the world on my travels, maybe next time!

[ZZ330]

Sorry Radliegh, I was being dull LOL... Had we had a bit more time I think they would have been happy for me to wander around the maintenance area but I am not sure my colleagues would have been so keen... we were quite tired. The rest of the shots were outside of that area as we passed through and there was some interesting stuff parked up but alas we sped past to the terminal. There were a couple more classic 737s but no pics as they were on the wrong side of the bus (or I was LOL)...

ZZ,

There are a couple of shots of your arrival on the Malaysianwings forum but you will need to join the group to view them. In case you are tempted, the link is below:
