Malaysian Air Force A319CJ


A Malaysian Air Force A319-115X CJ, 9M-NAA (cn2949), was parked on the North Ramp today at HNL. This aircraft is apparently used by the Prime Minister of Malaysia.

Why is it at HNL? I don't know. But the engines are covered, so it may spend a couple of days here.

This was a VIP transport for the King of Malaysia.

From the Honolulu Advertiser:
"On New Year's Eve, Turtle Bay Director of Golf Matt Hall golfed with the King of Malaysia, Sultan Mizan Zainal Abidin ... A brigadier general called to set up the game because Abidin wanted to see the (Palmer) course where the LPGA's SBS Open at Turtle Bay is played. His brother and a consulate member also played. They were accompanied by three security guards, one doubling as a caddie."
