Guest Darren Masters Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 Hey guys. Just at Macau airport now. It's 0530 here and my flight ZG157 departs for Saigon at 0705 arriving 0830. In seat 32A-window right up the back again :biggrin: Trip here was good. Will have to post a trip report and pics from my hotel tonight as using airport internet here is, errrrr, painful :eek: Greg, I don't think that Viva's 767-200's are ADSB equipped. What I did find unusual though was the aircraft MSN number was on the back door!!! Handy to have it there I guess. Hope you had a good holiday too Dave. Will be getting together before nicking off to NZ. Chop, I too used to own a Canon EOS1000F back in the old days Anyway, as I said I will post a proper report tonight and might follow NZOM's format. Rego of aircraft this morning unknown but they are both sitting out there on the tarmac it's just too dark to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the topic, I worked with a mate years ago in a call centre who loved the idea of Japanese girls and leg warmers. After the center was shipped off to India he took his payout and moved to Japan. I haven't heard from him since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
