The Start Of A New Life..
Well,stepping into aviation is stepping a new life.There's no turning back for me.A big sum of RM233k is being spent on me.Got to make my parents proud as I begged them for this.I'm just so lucky.It's a beginning of a new life for me.AVIATION.For next GOD know how many years I'm going to be in this field that I'm inspired of.God,I hope you are leading me to the right path.
I've been obsessed with airplanes since I was small.Even when I did my pre-university,I felt this is not the place for me.The flying academy is the place to be for me.I'm born to fly!At 38,000 feet.Well,I'm glad that I'm not back at uni doing my degree.Flying academy here I come.The start of a new life style.I know it's going to be a hard ride,but I'm ready.
To every job there are pros and cons.I'm willing to face anything to achieve my dreams.It's a faith that GOD has decided that I'm full filling it.I know I got to work at odd hours and probably 1/3 of my life I would be out from my house.But that's the fun of it.I really want a job which is not a typical 9-6 job.There should be a kick in life.Thrills,challenges and more.We live once live out the max.!

Impressions of a Pilot
Impressions of a Pilot
Flight is freedom in its purest form,
To dance with the clouds which follow a storm;
To roll and glide, to wheel and spin,
To feel the joy that swells within;
To leave the earth with its troubles and fly,
And know the warmth of a clear spring sky;
Then back to earth at the end of a day,
Released from the tensions which melted away.
Should my end come while I am in flight,
Whether brightest day or darkest night;
Spare me your pity and shrug off the pain,
Secure in the knowledge that I'd do it again;
For each of us is created to die,
And within me I know,
I was born to fly.

The Tension...
Well,the day of enrollment is finally approaching.In another 1 week plus I'll be in M.F.A. starting my course which will lead me to a frozen Airline Transport Pilots License(ATPL) with Instrument Rating.Currently my adrenalin is pumping very fast and the tension is heating up.It is as if I'm going for war.But I'm really excited about joining M.F.A.I feel my whole life will be secured when I get into the school.Currently I feel that my whole life is just floating on the great rough ocean.On the 6th of April I'm supposed to report in at 9 a.m.I'll leave Kuala Lumpur one day earlier and put up at some hotel to make life easier.Currently I'm doing my final checklist.
Before commencement checklist:
Uniform..check
Luggage..check
Black shoes..check
Toiletries..check
Money??..double check(very2 important)
Farewell to girlfriend..negative(hahaha)
Before commencement checklist complete.

Flight Simming...
Obviously every pilot wannabe is keen on The Microsoft Flight Simulator.Well,I've been flying sorry,playing it for the past 1 year or so.At first my skills were useless I would say.As time passed I've been getting better.My advise to fellow wannabes,do play the game.It really helps.I'll post some of my simulator session pics..huahaha..

The Test....
Well,the day had come.The day I sat for my assessment test at Malaysia Flying Academy(MFA).As I'm from Kuala Lumpur,I went to Malacca a day earlier.Drove there and checked in the Equatorial Hotel.Took a little nap then hit the swimming pool!Well,then I went to Jongker Walk for dinner.The place is happening thou.Later at night I started revising for the test.
Well,for me the notes given were very simple.I thought it won't be that challenging during the test.People kept telling me not to worry about the test as it should be easy.Well,I wanted to be extra careful so I simplified the notes given to me.I wrote pocket sized notes.It helped a lot.I kept on reading and writing till midnight.Then I hit the sacks.
My alarm rang around 6 a.m.As usual I was lazy to get up but I had to do it!hahaha. Anyways,I took my shower,head on to the breakfast buffet.I literally wasted the buffet.It was a all-you-can-eat thing but I just had a plate of noodles and chicken.Oh GOD!I wished I had more time.Then I took off with the car to MFA.The journey didn't take long.As I reached there,my heart was beating fast.Nervous!Then I marched into the gates of hell.Hahahaha.Just kidding.Then I meet some guys who were supposed to take the test too.We were introducing our selves to one another.
After the introducing formalities we headed to the Admin Office.On the way we saw cadets walking around with their uniforms.We were like"WOW!!".That's so cool!We can't wait much longer!Hahaha.Well,I got to admit that the cadets look smart.MFA's new buildings were nice!Makes the spirit of learning better.As we went to the Admin Office which was at the Old Building that time,we meet Ms.Airin.Then we went to the meeting room to settle the documentations and etc.
The formalities were all done and it's back to serious business.Time for the test.I had 3 hours for 3 papers.One of the instructors there briefed us about the test.It was physics first,followed by Mathematics and lastly English.As I opened the paper,I got excited.I could actually do the papers!It was easy lol!But for some guys they were scratching their heads off.Well,they must have left Physics and Mathematics for a long time.Don't give up guys!I did 3 papers in 1 and a half hours.So,then I exited the classroom and headed back to town for lunch and checked out from my hotel.
By 2 p.m.,I was back at MFA for the results and my interview.Well,I had to wait for 2 long hours for my interview.My thoughts were wondering what's going to be asked and the most important of all what were my test results.Finally after 2 hours I got called in.I was the last one to be interviewed.Went into the room with an innocent look.Introduced myself and then they bombarded me with questions."WHY YOU WANT TO BE A PILOT?""HOW DOES AN AIRPLANE FLY?"WHY NOT OTHER PROFESSIONS?"ARE YOU WILLING TO SCARIFIES FOR 18 MONTHS ? AND BLA BLA BLA.Well,I think I gave them a good show.They were impressed with me.The questions I got seemed easier compared to some of the other guys.
Then after that I went to see Ms.Airin about my test results.Guess what?I scored 100% for English and 95% for both Mathematics and Physics.Then,I was a bit heart broken as Ms.Airin said that the February intake is full.Lalalalala.The next possible intake was April.Without thinking twice I gave the cheque of RM65k.I didn't want to loose the spot!After that I drove back to Kuala Lumpur with a happy face!Yahoo!!!

Slumdog Millionaire.
Ever wondered how would life in the slums be?Well,horrible for definite.Slumdog Millionaire is a story about a boy from the slums and currently a chai-wallah(Tea Boy),Jamal Malik winning one of the most popular game shows "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire".Stared by Dave Patel,Irfan Khan,Anil Kapoor and others.Directed by Danny Boyle.Well,the movies plot is a bit of a pusing as we typical Malaysians say.Anyhow the boys lived in the slums through out his childhood with his brother Saleem as their mother was killed during a fight amongst two different religion followers at the slums.
Well,life was hard for them.I mean really hard!No proper shelter,food,clothing and etc.They were later on joined by a fellow slum-mate Lathika(who turn out to be a super hot girl later on).Some guy named Maman later on tricks them as turns them into beggers.A syndicate of course.Saleem turns out to be a complete idiot as ditches her when they make a run for it as Jamal was about to be blinded.That part was extremely awful and unpleasant.Sickening.As they ran away they ended up in Agra(Taj Mahal).There they made a living of being conman,tour guides and selling what ever that they could sell.
As time passed,Jamal wanted to go back to Bombay to seek for Lathika.Well,they left their so called luxury lifestyle at Agra and went on a journey to find Lathika.On arrival at Bombay they found out about Lathika.She was a prostitute-to-be.Is there such a thing?Oh yeah.Maman wanted to make a fortune out of her.He was giving her training to be the number one hooker in town.We'll eventually of old school bollywood style,the boys trashed into Maman's place to saved the girl.Maman was shoot on the head by Saleem.He deserved it by the way.They ran away to a deserted hotel and was having the time of their lives then.Suddenly, Saleem comes into the room and chased Jamal out.Well,you know what I mean.Getting laid with Lathika.Oh Saleem,why must you be a pain in the ass at times?
Oh GOD.I'm tired of typing.Why not you guys catch the movie out for your selves?Wahahaha..Bottom line is,the movie was Superb!That's why the 8 Oscars went to them.

The First Steps..
A typical aspiring pilot school leaver would straight away intend to get to know about flying schools.In my case, so did I.Surfed the web,here and there.Asked a couple of people.Then I got to know how serious is this stuff.It's not like getting into any private colleges where you pay the big bucks and your place is ensured!
Ladies and gentleman even even you are willing to pay RM300k. for your child or who ever it is to become a cadet pilot, he/she won't get there unless he/she gets through the assessments and etc.Well I don't blame the flying academies as well.Too many of us want to reach to the skies.But the demand for pilots is there.It's only that the academies at Malaysia can't accommodate for all of us.Well, that sounds bad huh?Cadets have to wait for 6 months to get into the academies!
Anyways, I heard about Malaysian Flying Academy(M.F.A).The oldest and most established flying school in Malaysia.The school with the least back logs.The school where many pilots have been to.The school which I put my trust to.I made my decision together with my parent's blessings to join the school.I called them up.They said there's a slot for February.All I got to do is get a sponsor,send my application along with photocopies of my particulars,certificates,the Department of Civil Aviation(DCA) approval letter and a bank draft of 300 bucks.I did so.
After sending the applications and etc. I decided to do my medical test.A class 1 medical is needed to be a commercial pilot.So I went to Twin Towers Medical Center,KLCC.Dr.Dalbir Singh Sagoo was the Aviation Doctor.Did all sorts of test.X-ray,urine,sight,sound,blood,heart rate and etc.It was exhausting as you got to do lots of waiting.But,luckily the nurses were cute.Made time to fly very fast.Hahaha.At the end of the day I received the certificate and the wishes from the doctor.Happy happy i was.
A couple of days later I got a call from MFA saying that my assessment test is in 3 weeks time!I said roger that.Everything seems to be going smooth..I prayed hard so it will keep on going the way it is.
