Fokker 50 Landing Gear Action

Tasty landing gear deployment and touch-down action. Thanks for the videos dcoolcrap.

Pictures from an F-22 [FS2004]

Was taxiing around the KLIA taxiway looking for interesting planes to stalk. And in front of me was my first victim. A Royal Brunei A319.



I missed a taxiway because I was distracted by cooking and when I came back I saw the Airbus had sneakily rolled on to runway 32R.



I easily caught up to the bugger.



As I was feverishly trying to match the A319's speed, (the autopilot was buggy) I spotted this Singapore Airlines 747 flying at some distance away.



A giant plane would be more impressive than this A319 I thought. So I left the Royal Brunei craft in my wake.



Only to realise I was chasing the wrong airplane.



The image above is a wide-angle shot. Best seen close up. It simulates a head turn.



Suddenly the Qantas 747 lowered its flaps. I didn't tune to air traffic so I had no idea what it was trying to do.



This is the F-22 with afterburners seemingly on. I was still struggling to maintain speed and heading with the 747 at the time.

Then I got bored and ate lunch.

Fokker 50 with Harrier escort [FS2004]

Took off from Miri airport in a Harrier (product of IRIS Simulations) while tailing a F50 travelling to an unknown decision. (At the time I didn't think of tuning the radio to Miri airport)

Here are a few pics taken from the cockpit and a spot plane.









Before I knew it, the F50 was already on final approach to Bintulu airport.





A touchdown has been made.



Strangely, after losing sight of the F50 for about 2 minutes when doing a go-around, it failed to appear anywhere on the runway or the apron. Must be the way Project AI handles things.

Rainbow Seats

I like this MAS interior color scheme. I was going back soon after Chinese New Year. It was a Boeing 737 flying from Miri to KL.

Curious little panel

I managed to take a photo of this curious panel that is situated in the foreward section of the fuselage. I always wondered what this thing is for. Seems like it controls lights and background music among other things.

Big Engine Big Pilot

It's a nice big pilot being backdropped by a big engine. I sat on that blue-color-themed A320 that day. I assume that is the nice large man in charge of the flight. Judging by his bigness.



Incidentally, the pilot that came out before the big pilot went in was small kechik. I was wondering why he was so kechik until I realised that it was a woman pilot. That's something I don't notice everyday. Salutations!

Twin Otter making a go-around

Just when I thought this plane was gonna touch its grippy rubber wheels on the asphalt, it decided to take off and leave. =| THANKS, man.

I wonder if this is a practice procedure. Prior to this I think I saw this plane make a few go-arounds. Then again it could be just another plane of the same model.

Air Asia A320 making a gentle landing

That felt really smooth. Even from this perspective. <3

Dark-nosed 737 coming in for a landing in Miri airport

This is the same aircraft coming on to the apron. I wonder why it is dark-nosed.

One of the first few airplane videos show with the awesome Powershot S3. 30fps at 640x480 and awesome audio.
