The livery is a left-over from MyAirline, of which AirAsia took-over a few aircraft from after that airline went belly-up.

This 2011 built AW139 had a rather short life, as it was destroyed during an accident on June 30, 2011 already, at the very location this picture was taken a bare three month before. The accident happened during a training flight and before the aircraft joined the growing AgustaWestland fleet of Weststar. Luckily, none of the three persons on board was killed.

The eyecatcher of the LIMA'15 exhibition was this 1967 built Nuri, the very first entering service with the Royal Malaysian AF that same year. 42 more would follow till 1978, but accidents and technical issues gradually reduced the availability of Nuris. When 12 new EC725 helis started to pour in as from 2012, the remaining Nuri's were to be handed over to the Malaysian Army. Thus AIROD delivered the first two during LIMA'15, both refurbished and wearing this stunning digital camo (the 2nd was M23-31, c/n 61798). The two were the only ones delivered, as technical issues grew and prevailed.

Delivered new to the RMAF in January of 1977 carrying serial FM-1720. It was then re-serialled to M23-16 in 1984 and is reported to have briefly carried civilian registration 9M-ZAR in 2008 (for modification and certification work?). A total of 16 RMAF S-61's were written off over the years, with M23-16 being the last one, suffering a hard landing on August 2, 2019. Actually, this very accident - luckily without loss of life - sealed the fate of the surviving 12 or so RMAF's Nuris, as the fleet was permanently grounded. Keeping them airworthy has become an issue in the previous years anyway.

1968 built M23-08 (ex FM-1708, ex FM-1148) was among the first batch of ten S-61 Nuri's (Parrot) delivered to the Royal Malaysian AF as from 1967. They were initally serialled FM-1140 to FM-1149. While FM-1143 was written off in 1972, the remaining nine in 1975 were re-serialled to FM-1701 to FM-1709. A further 33 Nuri's were deliverd between 1971 and 1978, bring the total number operated by the RMAF to 43. Unfortunately, 16 helicopters were lost over the years, finally grounding the fleet in August of 2019, after more than 50 years of operation.

Mishap in the Malayan jungle. Serial WV195 readable, code G of No 848 Sqn confirmed. Ex BuNo 130188, supplied to Britain as early as November 1952 to fight communist rebels in Malaysia. Repaired after this accident. Sent back to Britain in 1957, but retired in 1958 and burnt in 1963 for an instructional filming. Photo by: Harrison Forman / University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee

Built in 1989, M37-01 is the sole Falcon 900 operated by the Royal Malaysian AF, and current as of December 2023. Other Biz-Jets operated by the RMAF over the years included two BAe-125, a Learjet 35, a Canadair CL600 Challenger and two BD-700 Global Express (one of them - M48-02 - is still current as of December 2023). A Boeing 737-700 (M53-01) was also operated in the VIP role between 2003 and 2018, while a 1975 built Fokker F-28 seems to remain operational as M28-01 too.
