EYCL meal SQ192/28OCT09

Inflight meal in Economy Class on SQ192/28OCT09 (SIN-PEN).

So you may ask... what are the perks of a short 60-minute flight?
1. Just a bloody sandwich and pre-packed orange-coloured syrup to shut you up and in order to fulfill the basics of being a full-service carrier.
2. They don't even bother to turn on the inflight entertainment system (even if it's an AVOD aircraft), and hence you won't get those flimsy plastic pull-your-hair headsets and you can't watch any movies.
3. You spend more time in the cab travelling to the airport, checking in, and then waiting for the flight than the actual flying time.
4. You don't have time to go mess up the lavatory and take away all their toothbrushes, toothpastes and sanitary pads.
5. You don't have time to recline your seat-backs to irritate the hell out of the person behind you.

So now do you see why I love it so much?

Photographed while driving (how skilful) home from the airport. Dedicated to the next generation who may never ever get to see a real chicken...

People say, Penang is just like Singapore in the 50's or 60's. Indeed!

What the... ?

I was by the runway waiting to photograph aeroplanes and was getting SEEEriously bored (because traffic at PEN is sooooooooo blardy boring). Then all of a sudden, this thing pulled up beside my car and started ringing its bell. Cling cling cling cling...

And no, I did not buy anything...
