" Ride on Harley, Fly On Airbus"
Harley Rides & Night Flight treats for orphans by MAS Charter
Subang (1 May 2009): It was certainly a 'Night to Remember' for 180 children from welfare homes during the 'Ride a Harley, Fly an Airbus' event organized by MAS Charter following the 2008 RC Airshow and the 2007 Msportbike Bike Ride Event today.
Malaysia Airlines' Head, Haj & Charter, Captain Nik Ahmad Huzlan said "Organizing this event requires great coordination internally and support from our sponsors. The main driving force for this event is the MAS Charter spirit of giving to the less fortunate and this event is the prime example on how a small contribution can make a big difference in someone's life".

The highlight of the evening was the night flight for the children out from Subang to the KL International Airport on a Malaysia Airlines Airbus A330. This was the surprise element to the evening as the children had not been informed of this arrangement prior to this.

Malam penuh kenangan bersama MAS Charter
Jumaat 1 hb Mei 2009 yang lepas tentu nya menjadi malam penuh kenangan bagi lebih 180 anak yatim dari Persatuan Kebajikan Anak Yatim & Miskin AI-Munirah, Pertubuhan Kebajikan Anak-anak Yatim/Miskin Klang (PEYAKIN), Pertubuhan Kebajikan Anak-anak Yatim/Miskin, Pertubuhan Kebajikan Anak anak Yatim Miskin Sungai Pinang, dan Persatuan Rumah Kanak Kanak Ini DiSayangi (Rumah KIDS) dari sekitar Selangor. Kanak kanak bertuah ini telah diraikan dalam satu program "Malam Penuh Kenangan" anjuran MAS Charter yang telah bermula di Balai Pameran Harley-Davidson Kuala Lumpur yang terletak di Petaling Jaya, Selangor. Sebaik saja selesai solat maghrib beramai ramai di sana, anak anak ini yang menaiki bas bas yang disediakan Anika Dimensi Sdn Bhd telah diiringi lebih 60 buah motosikal Harley-Davidson untuk berkonvoi ke Kompleks A Sistem Penerbangan Malaysia (MAS) di Subang. Konvoi ini juga telah dibantu dengan kawalan lalu lintas oleh 25 buah motosikal trafik dari Polis Di Raja Malaysia di sepanjang perjalanan tersebut.
Se tiba nya di Subang, mereka disajikan jamuan makan malam yang disediakan oleh LSG Skychef yang merupakan penyaji katering dalam penerbangan bagi MAS. Mereka kemudiannya di beri peluang mengalami pengalaman membonceng motosikal Harley-Davidson, dengan di bawa sekeliling kompleks berkenaan.
Acara kemuncak merupakan satu kejutan bagi kanak kanak tersebut. Setelah selesai pengagihan cenderamata kepada tiap orang, mereka kemudiannya diiring oleh para pramugari untuk ke Hangar 4 bagi menaiki sebuah pesawat Airbus A330 yang sedia menanti di sana. Tidak hanya untuk melihat keadaan sebenar di dalam pesawat tersebut, mereka telah di berikan pengalaman penerbangan buat pertama kali dalam hidup mereka. Airmuka kegembiraan jelas terpancar di wajah kanak kanak tersebut yang langsung tidak menjangka untuk mengalami pengalaman penerbangan sedemikian.
Pesawat tersebut telah berlepas dari Lapangan Terbang Subang untuk mengelilingi ibukota Kuala Lumpur yang bergemerlapan indah dengan cahaya lampu, dengan bangunan Menara Kuala Lumpur dan juga Menara Berkembar Petronas jelas kelihatan. Pesawat tersebut kemudiannya menghala ke Lapangan Terbang Antarabangsa Kuala Lumpur (KLIA) di Sepang bagi mengakhiri penerbangan selama lebih setengah jam tersebut.
"Usaha ini tidak mungkin akan menjadi realiti tanpa kerjasama semua pihak yang terlibat, dan saya ingin mengucapkan ribuan terima kasih kepada semua yang terlibat dalam menjayakan program ini, iaitu Harley Davidson KL, Polis Diraja Malaysia Petaling Jaya, LSG Skychef, Anika Dimensi SB, Angkatan Tentera Malaysia dan juga MalaysianWings.net ." kata Kapten Nih Ahmad Huzlan, Ketua MAS Charter.
Selain menguruskan penerbangan haji saban tahun, MAS Charter yang merupakan cabang Sistem Penerbangan Malaysia MAS ini juga juga diamanahkan oleh Kementerian Pertahanan Malaysia untuk pengangkutan peserta peserta program PLKN diantara Semenanjung Malaysia, Sabah dan Sarawak.
