Chao Lao Beach Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 (edited) On the road, but...... Spud: It is a C310 by memory. That is what would be in my logbook anyway !!!! Ricardo: In fact that story is 99% true, some types use compressed air, was it Russian?. Edited May 6, 2013 by Chao Lao Beach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricardo Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Ricardo: In fact that story is 99% true, some types use compressed air, was it Russian?. No, I believe it was a BA VC-10, and that the onward-leg was to South Africa, but my memory may be faulty. African aviation seems always a little more-different, than other parts of the globe, for example stories of elderly aircraft flying the Haj, with no seats fitted but everyone sitting on the deck. Wonder how the 'hosties' checked everyone was using their seat-belt ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder how the 'hosties' checked everyone was using their seat-belt ? Nearly like when I flew in C130s except we had at least cargo nets to sit on. No 'hosties' on board.

SeaVisionBurma Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 I was a big fan of Kai Tak airport when it was open. Found some old photos on another site http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showpost.php?p=46831411&postcount=227 http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showpost.php?p=44115694&postcount=215 Some interesting shots, plenty of aircraft to spot. There are more about halfway down page 2 of that site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeaVisionBurma Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Nice video here of Oasis Airlines showing briefing, cockpit, cabin service and a couple of landings. Interesting when they pass a fellow Oasis 747 between London and Hong Kong, and they ask the other crew to flash their lights... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are more about halfway down page 2 of that site. SVB, thanks for that ... some golden oldies in those photos ... particularly liked the Concord shots. Also the Oasis YouTube great to watch. I know that it's a promo video, but it does show a side of the flight that I never get to observe. They weren't chemtrails just before the light flash and crossover, were they ... .

Chao Lao Beach Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Make Model plane8-tv.jpg Business class air ethipoia ? Nope, and its not a THAI Airways old 747 that has not be re-fitted in 20 years also. I believe that most people here would have travel in one of these commuters. It was built in North America. This pic was taken in Indonesia, but the airframe was not registered there.
