a remake of a flight I went on a year ago
SQ282. Singapore Changi Airport-Amritsar India. (Based on my trip. everything is done as closely as real life and what I saw/did) (No editiing)

Yay, they finally let us board!

Since we were delayed because of problems with baggage, i looked out the window, and saw this Garuda 747

After watching a movie (Lord of War) I see on the map that we are flying over the Indian Ocean

I fell asleep, and when I woke up we were over India, 2 hours to arrival

If I was on the other side of the plane, I wouldve seen the Himalayas

The trees are getting big now. We're so close

And we're down! Love the sound of the reverse thrust

As you can see from the size of the airport, its not the most popular, and Singapore airlines only recently started routine flights there

Time to get off. No jetways at this place... Just some good old stairs!
user posted image

I turned left, and was stunned at the size of that engine!

The aircraft and surrounding area was surrounded by police with very nasty looking guns, incase anyone attempted to make a run for it. We werent even allowed our cameras out, but ahh well... The plane was absolutely huge

When we finally got out of the airport, to the awaiting taxi, the plane was already gone again
