        • Leftover from SIN/Changi .. !!!

          9W VT - JBS in SIN



          And I missed the next 9W, a 330, arriving, while admiring my crappy picture ..

          For curiosity sake, host shows, there are 4X9W flights, from India to Singapore !!!!

          Singapore Mumbai 11 Jet Airways Daily 1905 2200
          Singapore Delhi 17 Jet Airways Daily 2310 0215
          Singapore Delhi 19 Jet Airways Daily 0805 1105
          Singapore Chennai 15 Jet Airways Daily 0920 1100

          SQ 380



          Another SQ 772-ER with a few SQ Tails in the background ..



          And a "stripes" 320, in fading light ..



          Another SQ 777, being towed to the gate .. a 772-ER



          And an EK 388, in the Remote Bay / Cargo Bay .. I wonder why it was shoved so far away !!! Next to it is a Daily TNT 747-400 tail



          And a Kangaroo 747-400. I wonder if they will disappear from Singapore .. with the new 'alliances' ..

          In the background, the "umbrella" area is the outdoor smoking area of Terminal 2



          The landscaped sign of Changi, with the ARFF ready to roll .. and .. the mound partially covering the Changi Air Base



          And lastly, an SQ 330, preparing to Push-off



          BTW, SQ's fleet strength now stands at

          Airbus A330-300 19
          Airbus A340-500 5
          Airbus A380-800 19
          Boeing 777–200 19
          Boeing 777–200ER 13
          Boeing 777–300 8
          Boeing 777-300ER 19
          ============= 102

                    • @ SpookyFlyer & Sakith - According to Thomson Airways website, they don't have flights to CMB in Winter 2012. Any idea what this aircraft is doing at CMB ? Do you know what is the aircraft-registration for this B757 ? But it looks like it's coming from the Britain.

                      Thomson B757

                          Spookyflyer, Thanks for that Aircraft Reg. Your answer has helped me to find out the reason for this aircraft visit to CMB. It is a TOM985 chartered by TCS Star Guest Expeditions, which is a luxury tour group. Below video will explain you everything in detail. please watch.

                                Withdrawn Virgin Atlantic A340-600 G-VFOX, which has been repainted plain white at Dublin, positioned Dublin – Manila this afternoon as VS813P for end of lease maintenance.

                                VS was the first airline to take the delivery of the A340-600 but they have now phase-out four/five of the A340-600s this year as this aircraft has clearly proved them it is un-ecnomical with a higher-fuel consumptions. I wonder what's the future of A340-600 going to be. Is there any way Airbus can make the A346 as a profitable aircraft for airlines ?
