Official Plane Spotting Thread III

[erkuan]

Someone posted this very same plane a few pages back!

Looks like a static jump exercise.

Yup, it is all the same Lockheed C-130H Hercules but just diffrent aircraft, 730, 735 and this one is 725

Alright, that's a pretty nice angle.

Mu guess is this place was once open to public.
After 9/11, that place became part of military area.

Near Changi Village?

Here's a shot from my overseas trip

Frontier Airlines Airbus A319-100 (Reg. N921FR)
Caught this guy at Trenton Mercer County Airport

Lastly, I have a question: Why is there condensation behind the wings of this B744?

I wonder why these business jets loves landing at WSSS instead of WSSL. Lack of aircraft parking spaces at WSSL even after upgrading perhaps? Once there was an entire row of them parked at the Static Aircraft Display Area (SADA) of the former Changi Exhibition Centre (CEC) jusy beyond the Northern Perimeter Road for several days.

Bernoulli's principle, Bro.

Basically reduced atmospheric pressure over the wing causing condensation to develop as the temperature drops below dew point.

Thanks for the info.

I guess most private jets are using the jet quay

But isn't JetQuay meant more for relatively affluent and wealthy airline passengers on commercially scheduled flights?

From what I have observed in WSSL and please do correct me if I'm wrong in the details. Officers from the Immigration & Checkpoints Authority of Singapore (ICA) actually seems to go up the private business jets to settle clearances and off these billionaires go in their limousine thereafter? Perhaps someone with knowledge on this matter will like to clarify as well?

I guess it must be busy over at WSSL too :bsmilie:

Where did you get those shots? That is a lot of private jets

That should be taken on the bridge to Seletar North Link.

Thanks, I might go there after CNY to shoot some birds
