TPE Spotting On Jul 24, 2007

Diecaster · 07-25-2007, 11:13 PM

The departure day on Jul 24 heading to HKG, I also spend some hours in a different location, so called similar to the "In & Out Butger in LAX", you can sit there next to the street to watch those landings.

The special scheme of FAT 757 landing

You can see even CI ground agent, the lady with the purple skirt also came there...

The regular FAT 757 scheme

Lucky to spotted the BR 333 Hello Kitty landing

Suddenly, the wind direction changed so the landing turns into take off

My friend decided is no longer good to stay there & spot, so we went back to the "Miracle" cafe

This time is not 2 x JL 744 but it's 1 x JL 744 + 1 JL 762

2 x CI special scheme...

Diecaster · 07-25-2007, 11:25 PM

Variety of CI fleet was taking off, 343, 744, 738, & 333 special scheme was follow (not showm in the photo)

Bye bye Hello Kitty, the northern runway...

Dreamliner ready to push back & get some rest

Diecaster · 07-25-2007, 11:29 PM

Dreamliner said I'm going to sleep, CI 343 are you coming or not...?

Yes Dreamliner, I'm coming with you...

SQ 772 said, since Star Alliance is not strong in Taipei, UA 772 do you want to park next to me...?

Defintely yes

It's time for me to leave TPE for the moment heading to the CX gate

Flew on it in Jan this year (HKG>TPE>LAX)....both flights were operated with this same aircraft
here're some photos of the interior...this is the upper deck...strangely, they used the upper deck as the economy (note the "econ-style" meal)

large storage boxes right by the windows

Full power operated seat with power reclining, sliding, and foot rest

Touch-screen control

Food: this is got to be the most disgusting airline meal I ever had...the rice was like un-cooked/hardened....it was like chewing rocks!

The B-18210 is the adopt with the latest Boeing interior design with mood lighting & that's why they called it a Dreamliner. Probably you also notice that the ceiling, the overhead round shape personal lighting & the overhead bin it's a bit look like the 777, if you compare some of the older 744 like CX, SQ, TG, & UA operates, those 744 should had those rectangular shape overhead bin & square shape overhead personal lighting.

The B-18210 also had the business class at the upper deck, unlike other CI 744s had economy class at the upper deck, you are sitting a power seat with PTV, USB, & LAN port...
