Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post.
In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.).

Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so.

Subang MIL + CIV 18 april 2024

Post by LifelinerOne »

Hi everybody,

when visiting Kuala Lumpur, I also decided to drive to Subang. Whilst not the busiest airport, it is still a very nice airport for some quality aircraft. The field is jointly civil and military, so if you like both you can have a nice day. The airport is busiest early in the morning and in the late afternoon. Between that, it can be very quiet.

I visited from 09:00 to 13:00, after which a massive thunderstorm and lots of rain ended my party. Anyway, here's an impression of a very enjoyable morning.

1. Subang is the main base of Firefly with its colorful ATR72s:

3. The spot I stood at was very close to the taxiway as this TUDM A400M M54-03 shows:

4. C-130H-30 M30-14 departing runway 33:

5. Subang is also housing a few Police aircraft like this Beech 350 9M-PTA:

6. Cessna 208 9M-PSO:

8. And AS355 9M-PHB:

9. The Maritim Malaysia unit also has aircraft and helicopters based. One of them is a CL-415 which flew but never came close to my lense to get a shot without crazy heatwaves. This AS365 M70-02 did better:

10. Definitely one of my highlights was this Bomba Mi-17 M994-01:

11. Also nice to catch this Falcon 900 M37-01:

12. This AW139 M104-01 dropped-in during lunch-time:

13. While this KC-130 M30-08 departed shortly after that. It drooped significantly to the left by the way:
