I Am A Private Pilot License Holder

29th July 2009

Today was my Private Pilot License progress test, which was really scary and made me felt extremely nervous.
I was suppose to fly 9M-BEX, but the aircraft has been taken by one of my batchmate.
So, I was forced to fly 9M-BDP that I flown once one day before my test.
After getting airborned, the Examiner and I heard a weird sound which came from the back from the aircraft, after getting done with all the exercises. I did my steep turn and max rate turn at just 500ft that was really close to the group.
He is a military trained pilot, he shown me some of the acrobatic flying skills, Loops, changing 180 degree of direction in the shortest time... It was FUN FUN and FUN.
You will never experience it unless you are so lucky like I did.
Finally, I've landed....the weird sound that came from the back was because..THE FUEL TANK CAP has been dropped out since the moment of getting airborned.
It's not my fault, I've closed it as the way that the engineer told me to...
I've discuss it with the engineer the day before, but he told me it should be alright.
Luckily, the fuel doesn't finish flowing out to the air while doing sloop and other exercises..Captain Chow the examiner doesn't blame me about that because I've told the engineer the earliest time after I've got to know that the Fuel Tank Cap doesn't works well.
Waited for the result for so long, Capt. Chow purposely wanted me to wait, so that I might feel nervous.. I kept asking him the result and he replied : You will never give up to know, aren't you..
Finally, waited from 2.20pm-6:00pm....Capt. Chow: It was a nice flight, Well Done , or you still want me to say you pass ?
Haha...Funny him....
Oh Mama....I've paseed it, I'm officially a pilot....
I want to fly you all over the whole...

Heard that Shathina crashed on the runway, hoping that she is fine and does not hurt.
She was on her First Solo...
May god bless her....Hoping that she would get through It soon...

God Bless

1.5 Hours Left For PPL Progress Test

Just landed at 0210 UTC for my navigation flight to Sibu.
Luckily Edward was flying ahead of me, which made me felt a lot better and calm.
I'm so happy and nervous as the same time, happy for the reason of going back home for 2 months of holidays and nervous because of my Private Pilot License Progress Test.
Everyone...Please pray hard for me....

Going Home

回家心切

原定于9月16号马来同胞新年期间回家探亲,不料我回家探亲的日子提前有望。。。
因为私人飞机执照可以提早完成,等同班同学完成的同时也可能得花上两个月或以上。
那么我就希望可以早一些回家陪陪家人和在西马的朋友们,也可以顺便看看已经完成装修的家。
你们要等我咯。。。。

回家

First Solo To Training Area






Today was my first solo to training area, it was FUN..
The cloud is low and the sea seems blue and clear today, but the wind is a bit strong.
Did some exercises like stalling on base, stalling during approach, steep turn and of course taking PHOTOGRAPHYS...... Yeah !!
But my hair look sucks with the headset pressing on it hardly. T.T
Took video while flying instead, it was actually captured while climbing and diving to avoid entering into the clouds.. and the black strips showing in the video was the propeller of the aircraft.
Anyway, check out the video on my facebook.

Safe Flying.

Crash




2nd July 2009

Today was a really bad day for flying, I went to the training area and suppose to go for my First Solo in Training area, who knows one of the captain grabbed the aircraft and went up to the sky. So I was forced to wait for another hour.
Whithin that hour, I went back to the college cafeteria to have my lunch with Brian.
After lunch, we headed back to the airport for my flying.
I saw some of the airport workers were looking at the threshold ( the beginning portion of the runway for landing ) and I saw a car was on the runway, at first I thought the runway is under inspection. But, when Brian and I went nearer, we saw an Cessna 172 has been pulled to the side of the runway with a group of cars and people,
we know that something had happened within the last few minutes.
The Malaysia Airlines B737 was supposed to depart at LMT 1410, and then It delayed the flight until the runway is clear for usage.
Hopefully, everyone can fly safely...

Safe Flying.

在云中翱翔


今天的飞行训练时这么多次以来最好玩地, 一大清早就下了一场雨,雨后的天空当然会特别多云。
我们靠飞机执照的是不允许飞入云层里地,只要云层的底部少过1000尺,那么我们的飞行就得延迟或取消。
今天会在训练范围的上空练习飞行技巧,在训练范围我们可以飞在3000尺的高空。
你们有试过在云层里翱翔的感觉吗?
你们有试过自己驾驶着小型飞机在高空上瞭望远方吗?
今天我就确确实实地试了一次,我的飞行导师让我体验了一次在高空上玩云霄飞车的机会。
他从2000尺直冲下1000尺,然后又冲上了2000尺,在云层里一片白茫茫地,什么都看不见,感觉很好!
很希望他下次可以给我尝试更多更刺激地。。。。。

Safe Flying.
