Official Plane Spotting Thread III


Here's yesterday's catch

B-2426 by montoyatok, on Flickr
China Cargo Airlines Boeing 747-400F (Reg. B-2426)

S2-AHC by montoyatok, on Flickr
Regent Airways Boeing 737-700 (Reg. S2-AHC)

JU-1015 by montoyatok, on Flickr
Mongolian Aielines Boeing 737-800 (Reg. JU-1015)
 

good catch montoyatok, specially loving the B747.
 

Anyone else noticed the multi-engine turboprop going all over the place in whichever direction (including what seems to be multiple short final approaches for go-around practices or touch-and-go landing attempts at Runway (RWY) 36C) around Tengah Air Base (TAB / WSAT) for the past hour or so? Couldn't make out the exact identification of the aircraft with my Mark. I optics.

Seems to be a very peculiar traffic circuit movement on a Sunday morning for that particular aerodrome or is it?

* Edit: Managed to get a high-confidence visual at the registration number of the aircraft. Identified as a Piper PA-42-1000 Cheyenne 400LS, operated by Burley Aircraft.

* Edit: According to openly available sources, previous flight plan segment actively tracked was from Darwin International Airport (DRW / YPDN), Darwin (Northern Territory (Australia)) enroute towards Ngurah Rai International Airport (DPS / WADD), Southern Bali (Indonesia) yesterday morning.

Afaik, no turboprop aircraft operate in Tengah airbase though from time to time ,the RSAF's C130 will do touch-and-go practices. Other than that, i assume you are referring to the fokker 50 which have been in service for the RSAF for a long time since the 1990s.

Taken from the same location, an Antonov AN32 taxiing out for take-off
 

Taken with a 60D and 18-135 kit lens.

Weather has been good, so editing is minimal - crop, maybe just change the brightness and contrast slightly. Please comment.

Changi Business Park, next to the PIE exit. There's a lot of grass fields Best shooting time is around 4-6pm. Kit lens are usable, but smaller planes are practically impossible to get.

Plus very efficient Cisco
 

Just to check - nowadays should be able to catch planes from Changi Beach Park too right? Instead of going to Changi Business Park.
 

Anyone else notice the pair of F-18s taking off from WSAP at 1245hrs today?

Yesterday, I saw some F-16s.
