Cathay Pacific Boeing 777-367(ER) B-KPF "Asia's World City"


B-KPF departs MNL on its way to HKG. She's a rare visitor here but it's not the first time she landed here. I rushed to the HQ upon knowing that she just landed in NAIA.

[VIDEO] Engine and Turboprop Spinner Spirals in Slow Motion


Ever wonder how engines and turboprops spins in slow motion? Well, here's a video showing that! The videos were recorded using a Lumix ZS19 at 220 frames per second. The quality isn't that good but it's still presentable :)

Featured engines and spinner spiral designs:

Pratt and Whitney PW4056 (single line) from Cathay Pacific and Korean Air's Boeing 747-400; PW172F from Cebu Pacific's ATR 72-500

General Electric CF6-80C2 (circle and line) from EVA Air's Boeing 747-400, (spiral) from China Airlines Cargo's Boeing 747-400F; CF6-80E1 (blender blade-like) from Philippine Airlines' Airbus A330-300; GE90-110/115B (spiral) from Philippine Airlines' Boeing 777-300ER

Rolls Royce Trent 800 (spiral) from Singapore Airlines' Boeing 777-200

The spiral titles are just my own made-up names. I don't know how to call it so I'm just naming it based on how I see it :)
