But today, at dot 11 AM, I saw a SQ B747 Megatop over Saket approaching DEL. I can't understand how come Megatop is in Delhi? _________________ Nalini... The Princess of the Sky...

Both eqp available but some corporate bookings by some company. So SQ might have agreed to arrange the 747 for the day _________________ http://www.myspace.com/avsatsworld A Walt Disney and 20th Century Fox Audio Producer!!!

SQ 408 was operated by a 773 and arrived on time last evening.

I remember those days when SQ flew their 743's to DEL. I flew on them alot in the 90's. as we frequented singapore atleast 3 times a year because my brother lived there for ages. I always used to be mightily excited to fly the BIG TOP and would drive my dad mad asking him questions about aviation throughout the flight. Sometimes i wonder if he was the real aviation enthusiast regards nitin Back to top tsk911 Member Joined: 19 Dec 2006 Posts: 223 Location: DEL Posted: Thu Jan 25, 2007 4:15 pm    Post subject: Thanks to all for answering me...

They're both fundamentally different. I'm flying once a week SIN-DEL-AMS as 7990 on the Ark, we come in around 4pm. In DEL today, and figured out we can't take off tomorrow again, saw a NOTAM that there is no-fly enforced from 1700-1800 over Delhi(29th). Freighters is a lot more fun. Now i know why HAWK21 is where he is PS: My last post in here, someone from here reported an earlier post i had to flight safety in my previous organization and I almost lost my job. Whoever did it, i hope you had your fun.

Refrain from certain details in your posts which can be held against you. Sad case if someone complained.It could happen again to others. regds MEL _________________ Think of the Brighter side !!!
