        Hey Banu as per Shanaka : the first flight was on Monday 5 Jan. SV783. I wanted to use SV from CAI to CMB but didnt book as SV was a high density B772 later was kicking my self as if I did. CAI-JED and JED-CMB were both B747-400 (Changed from B772 and B772)

            • Hey all!
              So I've just posted another video trip report, this features 9W256, the red eye flight from Colombo to Mumbai. It also includes footage from the new Mumbai terminal 2.
              I will cover 9W251/252 later in July.
              I hope you enjoy the experience https://youtu.be/yE_Wkg-C5uA

                • A rare occurrence, A B200 landing in SIN

                  All smaller aircraft are directed to Seletar Base, except Exec jets using the Jet Quay VIP clearance, used by the Casino Jets and the Private Jets

                  B200



                  B200

                    SQ's 9V-SQI was ferried to Victoriaville for Storage on the 23/02/2015 ? Does this mean SQ has started retiring the B777-200 fleet?
                    Another B772 has left the SQ fleet as 9V-SVK (28520) flew SIN-VCV for storage on the 16/03/2015. If i am not mistaken SQ is currently using their B772 to routes like Johannesburg, Male, Manila, Bengaluru..

                      SQ had a staggering number of B777-200ER (derated) and B777-200ER. The B777-200ER were back bone of Long Haul routes where B747-400 were too large for demand. The B777-200ER long haul routes includes/included, SIN-AMS-ORD, SIN-MAN, SIN-AMS, SIN-CPH, SIN-FCO, SIN-JNB-CPT, SIN-ICN-YVR, SIN-TPE-LAX. Some of which have now been taken over by B777-300ER. Where as the B777-200ER (derated) short haul/medium are now A330-300. SQ seem quite happy and have 31 frames in service.

                          In my opinion UL should use a fairly new aircraft for LHR route. 503/504 is fairly full most of the time and I have seen lots of negative comments from passengers in Skytrax about the condition of the aircraft.

                            UL has to use the 24 J Seater A333s on the flights which have the better yield. On the other hand, UL has to maintain the aircraft well and provide the best cabin crew service to the passengers. I do agree good aircraft has to be used for long haul routes especially.

                              It appears to be 4R-ALL serving East while 4R-ALM serving the destinations in West. Perhaps they are doing that to satisfy all the passengers.

                              4R-ALM is coming to LHR coming weekend on 22-MAR. I can't wait to take her pictures !!

                              • Check out this youtube page for some awesome cockpit videos..

                                I am an airline pilot and this are my journey videos of flights from all over the world, shot at work. The magic of flight fascinates me - Men naturally don't fly. I think it's undoubtedly one of the biggest achievements and privileges of our generation to soar and fly by help of machines. Today, commercial air transport is a highly standardized andserious business - but it all started with a dream. Thanks for watching, I hope you enjoy. Have nice and safe flights and take care, wherever you are.
