Well while mucking around after a briefing today at PM, DAK in her beautiful new paint scheme flew into PM for a new starboard engine at the Field Air hangar. Here are some pics I managed to get. We got airside access just by wearing uniform

Thats an impressive Aileron!

Nice KAG, I'm liking number one, but number 6 could do with some cropping :lol:

Check how out of place the GPS is in the top-left corner

Nice shots Andrew, it's amazing where you can access the airport when in your pilots (college) uniform eh. At mainland it was surprising where I could go in uniform :lol:

P.S I want those epaulettes, Mainland Air's uniform consist's of a white polo shirt, polar fleece jacket, dress pants & shoes, shirt & jacket both have "Mainland Aviation College"emblem on them

Wicked shots Keagan, the DAK is lurvley aint she!

I can see they still have that towel up by the windscreen, I wonder what the heck that is for??

by **FlyingKiwi** » Tue Mar 13, 2007 5:32 pm

This may sound silly, but I believe it actually leaks rather badly which may explain the towel.

by **FlyingKiwi** » Wed Mar 14, 2007 6:10 pm

Just confirmed with a friend today that the towel is indeed there to absorb the leaks.
