Remarks: The rear Economy Class cabin pictured while cruising at FL370, prior to commencing our descent into Changi as SQ 531 from Ahmedabad. You can clearly make out the cabin sloping upwards towards the rear of the aircraft in this picture - a distinct feature of the A330/A340 series. This was my first flight on an A330-300, and the fact that it was SQ, made it a memorable one! [Canon EOS 40D + Sigma 17-70mm f/2.8-4.5 DC IF Macro]
Remarks: We were 3 people in the cockpit at that time, and it still didn't feel cramped! That's an Airbus flight deck for you! Pictured while we were waiting to take on passengers from Mumbai for our continuing service to Chennai as 6E 212. Many thanks to the Captain for permission to visit and photograph the cockpit.

Remarks: Changi at twilight! Photo taken a few minutes after sunset. Clearly visible in the frame are (from L to R) the brightly lit Terminal 3, the Crowne Plaza hotel, Changi's iconic control tower, Terminal 1 (below the wing) and Terminal 2 in the foreground. Many thanks to Michael Brazier for his editing help. [Canon EOS 40D + Sigma 17-70mm f/2.8-4.5 DC IF Macro]
Remarks: Looks like an architect's scale model down there! I had this stunning overview of the Downtown Dubai complex, with the Burj Khalifa easily dwarfing everything else in view. Also visible is the Dubai Mall (world's largest shopping mall by area - to the right of the Burj Khalifa) and the Dubai Fountain (in the man-made lake at the bottom of the Burj Khalifa). I hope you enjoy this view as much as I did! [Canon EOS 40D + Sigma 17-70mm f/2.8-4.5 DC IF Macro]
Remarks: Economy Class cabin view on this 12-year old A330 as we prepare to descend into Ahmedabad. At the moment, we are flying parallel to the Pakistani coast, as seen on the drop-down display screens. I will gladly take this cabin any day compared to their 10-abreast 777s.

Remarks: Cabin view of the rear Economy Class while cruising at FL400 with a very light load today. Romeo Mike is one of SQ's 772s that's received a cabin refurbishment, and now features their new Business Class and Economy Class product. [Canon EOS 40D + Sigma 10-20mm f/4-5.6 EX DC HSM]

Two 777s can be seen parked outside the Air India hangars in the right corner, while an El Al 767-200 is parked at a stand awaiting its return flight back to Tel Aviv.

Remarks: What's better than a 747? An even longer 747! The new Queen of the Skies looks splendid at night! "Brandenburg" is ready to spool up those GEnx-2B67 engines and taxi out for departure as "Lufthansa 761" to Frankfurt. Note the blue mood lighting inside the cabin. [Canon EOS 40D + EF 28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM]
Remarks: The flight crew winds up for the day. Note the word "Om" written in orange Devanagari script on both sides of the panel, which is a sacred Hindu syllable evoking the blessings of the Almighty. Many IndiGo aircraft carry this word on their flight decks. [Canon EOS 40D + Sigma 17-70mm f/2.8-4.5 DC IF Macro]
Remarks: Overview of Terminal 2 gates and also Terminal 3, the Crowne Plaza hotel and the iconic Changi ATC tower, as we climb out from a runway 02C departure as AK 5343 to Langkawi.
