FS2004

Yeah...My security particulars are being processed now...gd will be able to fly once i get back.

Yesh...I got Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 yesterday. I'm halfway thru the Student Pilot training in there. pretty cosmic stuff even in the simple Cessna 172. I spent like more than 1 hour figuring out the dials, Levers and whatnots on the dashboard.This Sim is great, it even has Changi and Seletar airport in it.

Man, seems there's a lot more to flying than i thought, Slipstream...I wuz wondering why my plane started slipping when taking off. Man its hard. But i finally managed to maintain control regularly on the plane... Well, i hope this Sim can help reduce the number of hours i'll need in training that will reduce cost and the burden on my mom n dad ( Not to mention worries) God bless my parents...They're the most supportive people i know. Man i hope my son or daughter wunt inherit this sense of adventure...(WHO AM I KIDDING? Of course i want my son or daughter to be like me!) Well, i just hope i rmb wad i wuz like now then, b4 i give a big protective NO to my son if he asks for permission to skydive or wdeva.

Ok, time to find out how to trim the ailerons and rudder.

SPL application

I was so excited about today i almost couldn't sleep at night. Woke up real early in the morning and Mom fetched me to the Airport. Man...ppl were looking at me dunno why. i was merely:
Wearing a rapper shirt
Listening to Mp3 ( Blurry, Danger Zone)

Then, when i asked the way to the office to apply for SPL, this fella looked at me as if i wuz joking. As if only ppl who dun wear specs can be a pilot... At least the clerk who filed my application was helpful and supportive haha. Thx Lee Cheng. I should be able to collect my SPL in 2 weeks time after i get back from Japan. Tmr will be another barrier. I will be hoping Dr Leow doesn't call me abt my medical test. Cuz if she does it will mean there's sth wrong and i failed it. So...plz no calls from Dr Leow tmr.

Blazer out.
