Plane spotting @ FUK on 21 May/5月21日福岡空港での飛行機たち

On May 21, I went to take pictures of an EVA Air Boeing 777-300er. Now the airline will be flying the newly painted 777s to Fukuoka almost everyday, until the end of this month. The aircraft registration number B-16736 was used for flight of the day. It's one of the newly painted plane which has been received in March.
先週日曜日(21日)はエバー航空のB777-300ER機を撮りに行きました。BRの77W機は31日までの機材変更で飛来しているのですが、ここ数日新塗装機を見かけるのでもしかしてまた来るのかなと思って行ってみるとやっぱり新塗装でした。機体番号はB-16736で今年3月に受領したばかりです。

Let's start uploading.
それではUPを開始します。

I finally got a picture of a Cathay Dragon A330 new livery!/ついにキャセイドラゴン航空のA330型機新塗装機を捕獲しました!

After having lunch, I have continued to take pictures of planes, so I went back to the usual place near the Rwy 16 end. A daily Cathay Dragon flight from Hong Kong arrives after 3 pm; but since this day is Saturday, it will be flying the A330s on a regular basis. I wonder if a new livery will come. When I saw a plane, it was drawn up a new color scheme with Cathay's brushing logo! I felt so lucky.
昼食後飛行機ファンたちの撮影の名所である滑走路16エンド近くで撮影しました。午後3時過ぎには香港からのキャセイドラゴン航空定期便がやってくるのですが、この日は土曜日でA330-300が入るのでもしかして新塗装機が来るのかなと思っていたら赤いキャセイで来ているのが見れてラッキーでした。今度はCXの新塗装である緑のキャセイも見てみたいです。
Have a nice trip in Hong Kong.
どうぞ香港での楽しいご旅行を。

I caught an EVA Air Boeing 777-300ER new livery at Fukuoka/エバー航空のB777-300ER新塗装機を捕獲しました!

On May 13, I went to take a picture of an EVA Air Boeing 777-300ER. I looked up to the airline's website beforehand, they'll send to the latest version of B773s (77W) WiFi equipped fleets for a period of time, from 10 to 31 May instead of the usual Hello Kitty jets. I know they already have some new colors of planes, I thought that a new livery would come.
先週の土曜日(13日)はエバー航空のB777-300ER機を撮りに行きました。同社の公式HPを見ているといつものキティジェットが今月10日から31日まで外れる代わりに77W機、しかもWiFi装備の最新鋭に機材変更するとのこと。それだともしかして新塗装機が来るのかなと思って楽しみに待っていました。

The plane was landing on Rwy 34 at 11:24 am. The aircraft registration number B-16732 was used for flight of the day. It's one of the newly painted plane which has been received in October 2016. I was so lucky to see BR's new livery.
飛行機は午前11時24分に滑走路34に着陸。機体番号はB-16732で2016年10月に受領したばかりの新塗装機だったので本当にラッキーでした。
The BR 105 return flight to Taipei was coming at 12:39 pm.
午後12時39分にBR105台北行き折り返し便がやってきました。

A Cathay Dragon (Dragon Air) A330-300 @ FUK/キャセイドラゴン航空のA330-300型機、福岡空港にて

And one more thing to upload on this blog; a Cathay Dragon Airbus a330-300 on flight KA380 from Hong Kong arrived 20 minutes after the Korean Air jumbo jet. The aircraft registration number B-LBD was transferred from its parent company, Cathay Pacific in December 2015. I hope that a new paint plane, the red cathay would come, but it was a white one.

I mentioned on my blog before, Cathay Pacific, which is currently operated by way of Taipei, will be taken out of service from the end of October. After that the airline only offers a non-stop flight by Cathay Dragon.
これは大韓航空ジャンボ機の20分後に到着したキャセイドラゴン航空の香港発KA380便のA330-300機です。機体番号はB-LBDで2015年12月に親会社のキャセイから移籍しています。もしかして新塗装の赤いキャセイが来るのかと期待していたのですが、白いほうだったのでちょっぴり残念でした。

ちなみにキャセイパシフィック航空グループの福岡線は10月末からキャセイによる台北経由便が運休となるのでドラゴンによる直行便のみとなってしまいますが、機材の大型化によるサービス改善を図るようなので今後の利用客増加を期待したいところです。
The KA381 return flight was one hour behind schedule because of bad weather in Hong Kong on this day.
この日のKA381折り返し便は香港での天候不良にともない予定より1時間遅れでした。

Korean Air's B747 flying to Fukuoka on May 4/5月4日に大韓航空のB747が福岡へ飛来!

On May 4, I went to the airport to see planes takeoff and landing in the afternoon, from 2 pm to 6 pm. It was the mid day of long week-ends which is called "Golden Week" in Japan. I was luckily to see a Korean Air Jumbo jet from Seoul Incheon. They usually put either A330s or B777s onto their Seoul - Fukuoka route, but suddenly they made aircraft change to B747s on this day. Now KE's 744 has been left from their passenger series, there is some fleets (mostly cargo type) still remain.
ゴールデンウイーク最中の4日は飛行機を見に行きました。午後2時から6時まで4時間ほどいたのですが、大韓航空のソウル発KE789/790便が突如の機材変更で残り少ないB747型機で飛来したので久々に見れてとてもラッキーでした。
The KE790 return flight to Seoul was taking off at 4:47 pm.
午後4時47分にKE790便ソウル行きが離陸。
