[COCKPIT VIEW] Flying to Pulau Redang with SKS Airways DHC-6-300 Twin Otter! 

Join me onboard SKS Airways, the "Southern Tiger," for a journey from Malaysia's capital to Pulau Redang, an outlying island in the North East of the country. Taxi and takeoff from Subang Airport to landing and shutdown at Redang STOLport, all viewed from the first row of the Twin Otter's tiny cabin, just behind the cockpit! Captain Fadzli in command, with First Officer Afiq in the right-hand seat.
SKS Airways is a relatively new airline in Malaysia, having only been founded in November 2017 and receiving its Air Operator's Certificate in October 2021. A fleet of two Twin Otters currently serve the islands of Redang and Tioman from Subang Airport, while 10 upcoming orders for the Embraer E195-E2 will launch the carrier's regional expansion plans.
