PK-LHV (cn 37284/3735) Purchasing new planes like hotcakes, the Lion Group is obviously focused on expanding its wings within (and soon out of) Southeast Asia. Yet another brand new B737-900ER is seen inching its way through a narrow alleyway at HNL after completing the first leg of its delivery flight. |

B-6050 (cn 468) Bringing me all the way from Shanghai as MU571, B-6050 takes a short rest at Gate 29 on a typical sunny morning in Hawaii. After the retirement of their A343s, China Eastern temporarily operated the A346 on its Honolulu sector, before switching to the A332 (33E config). For the record, China Eastern now uses the A332 with the 332 config to Honolulu. |

N517AS (cn 35197/2770) Flexing its wings as it makes a nice hard turn out of runway 08L. Over the past few years, Alaska Airlines had made its presence known throughout the State of Hawaii. A Hawaiian-themed logojet, soon to be unveiled, is a testament to their commitment to the Aloha State. |

N477HA / 77 (cn 55122/5061) The Waianae mountain range looms in the background as N477HA approaches runway 04R from Hilo as HA201. Starting in 2017, Hawaiian Airlines will add to its fleet of narrowbodies as the airline has recently firmed orders for 16 A321NEO (with rights for an additional 9) which would complement their A332 and B763 flights to the US Mainland, as well as opening new markets from the Neighbor Islands. |

RP-C7472 (cn 27262/1012) Philippine 103 heavy lifts off from runway 08R, bound for Manila after a brief tech stop in Honolulu. Due to prevailing winds, passenger/cargo loads, etc., Philippine Airlines' LAX/SFO-MNL flights often stop in either Honolulu or (more commonly) Guam for additional fuel. As these tech stops always occur under the cover of darkness, I was pleasantly surprised to see PR103 from LAX running a few hours behind schedule that particular morning! |

B-18317 (cn 861) Climbing out from the Reef Runway, Dynasty 001 heavy flexes its wings as it heads back home. Months later, China Airlines would suspend this nonstop flight between TPE and HNL, only to announce service resumption in June 2013. However, the schedule of their re-introduced flights will be quite different, with a 1AM departure out of HNL (similar to those of Hawaiian Airlines and EVA Air). |

N477HA / 77 (cn 55122/5061) When Hawaii's prevailing tradewinds stop blowing, vog (volcanic haze) from the Big Island's active Kīlauea Volcano can quickly spread throughout the main Hawaiian Island chain. In addition to the reduced visibility, these conditions bring along unfavorably hot and humid weather. A Hawaiian B712 is photographed completing another inter-island hop, bathed in a characteristic reddish hue from the vog and low sun. |
