Malaysia & LIMA 2013 (20 pics added April 12th)

Post by Soundbarrier » Fri Apr 05, 2013 9:22 pm

Here my photoreport on the 4Aviation trip to Malaysia & LIMA 2013.

The well arranged trip was a succes. Due to the great weather (not much rain) and the flexible & proactive attitude of our 4A tourguide we were able to picture most of Malaysias MIL types. Of course LIMA 2013 attracted some additional nice regional visitors.

Besides LIMA at Langkawi also Butterworth, Subang, Sungai Besi, Alor Setar were visited (off base).

Furthermore the Malaysian AF museum was visited and we did some W&R hunting. Perhaps some of this in a later report.

Enjoy ... Gr. CBR

That's a fabulous photo report, :) with great co-operation from the Malaysian people.

such places as these. :Wow: ...Thank-you...JB :ninja:

It's amazing that such a small nation can operate such a diverse fleet of aircraft, goes against the grain - even with the money in the bank. Nice baby Hawks BTW.

What a fantastic variety of aircraft! The Indonesian C-130 & Coast Guard CL-415 are particularly nice, it's good to see such a range of Helicopters displaying too!

Not a bad set really - though personally I think it would be better if they were numbered - especially if you're going to post so many.

Nice variety and good to see a different location - though I find the aircraft at CBY more interesting :ninja:

Some cracking shots of aircraft most of us are unlikely to see in the flesh, many thanks for posting them!
