Getting things moving..

Back for coming 3rd Month in less than 15 days!

Life has been pretty raw and shacky for a long while and lots of uncertainty in my path, but life goes on even if in tough times. So far in my 22 years of my life, lossing my flight and coming back home in complete confusion is my 2nd greatest loass. Life had never been the same after them. Events that have etched their way through in my heart and taken a part of me away!...

Finally confirm a seat in Uni SA for Applied Science on Civil Aviation but gona settle down the adminisative stuff first and a whole load of things before sch starts next year. Dun kneo if this is the course that will give me the push into SIA for future advancement or will other Uni like Massey give a better standing oppotunity. I wonder... hmm, But at least i'm going back to Aussie land for some flying.. Flying will never be the same again, specially in the commercial world!

Meanwhile, had been helping out at my dad's place. Feels soo much like going back to my engineering roots in a major factory. Taking stocks, taking product photos and clearing all the logistic stuff for him. Its in a total mess! So much lost assets and labilities if they are not cleared properly. Remind me of times at Science centre where i was doing my FYP for FRS Competition. All the engineering terms and working by the machine to fix up and develop new tools and items.

Up coming events for now... Will be the gig tonite by The Morning After. these are some good bros and sis that i had since OCS days.. anione whoever wanna find out more can search for them on youtube.com! They will be playing at hereen tonite at 9pm for Tapestry. Its for a good cost to get fundings for boys town. Great way to enjoy ourselves and promoting local musics with some charity work involve. And how do i play a part in these? I`m the Camera Man~

More activities are line up to keep myself busy and getting back my lost youth! Missed soo much of the old days stuff that i question sometimes, what am i chasing for that has taken so much away.

To 132BWC bros, work hard and fly towards the wings of tomorrow. We will one day soar in the sky together! AH-Hoo...

To The Morning After, No matter what happens tonite! We are ALWAYS good frens and great bros in arms. Rock on...

To all my other frens, keep in touch and take care! We shld meet someday for coffee, tea or even wine! hahaha... Anithing that rocks your boat!


These could be my next mask of action...

More photos and updates to come!

Places where i have left my prints...

The flight worth taking off with...
Bros of 132 BWC... its the company we will remember
Getting into the tunnel in Veitnum.. (the Ladie is a French Tourist)
Back to my Infantry Roots.. Thats an Old SAW Machine Gun! Down Under in the dark tunnels..
How the freak did these vietnam soldiers survive and fight in these tunnels?
These tunnels are around 3km radius and 6 feet under. All are HAND dig... Every inch of it all! Even their Command centre and all ar under ground. Shld have called them in for Ex. Dump In or Spade. Best defence ever made...

Failed Mission...

Been back for a pretty long time now. The wound never seems to heal at least it reaps open whenever the sight and sound of RSAF aircraft fly pass my area. The majestic of it all still lingers in the dark corner of my mind and i dun think it will ever fade off. Its a terrible failed mission...
Flying is a business that not many would appreciate and handle but once you are in, you are hooked to the many challenges that will meet you on your jounery to being the captain of the flight. The checks and system knowledge are juz the flour of your tiramisu cake...

Finally ORD-ed and thinking of my next life changing steps. Eduation is in process and hopefully it will go throu smoothly and I will be back in downunder in no time. UniSA is the place and pilot education and training is the mission to conqure.

This will be my first blogging after a long time. Hope it will not be the last one and more to come I hope..

Keep in touch my bros and sis.. Take care and Njoy whatever you guys are doing..

Cheers..

The light at the tunnel

The week before judgement day..

There will not be any proper entry this time round...

My course commander said this to me: " Military pilot training is like doing your IPPT chin-up. You are down to the last chin-up to get you the gold award and all that is left is the last 30cm up to the bar." How much strength and endurance do i have to complete that last 30cm. i have made it throu' the other station already but do i have the last bit left to complete it? The struggle is long ...

Sunshine after the rain...

28th April

A week of judgments and test of personal abilities…

I went from a failed sortie to OC CX thereafter to CO CX within the span of 1 week. Flying with the management is really different, coz they let me have total control of the aircraft. Just like a solo flight. But of coz one screw up and that’s the end of the quiet flight.

Flying with Boss is damn stress as he has this aura all over him. Even ATC controllers and ground crews have to be extremely polite when I punch out my R/T calls under his call sign. Totally outstanding! He is cool and calm throughout the flight even when I was kina struggling with the controls; the fight against the winds. Its one of the best flight I ever had…After the flight I thou’ I was screwed coz he did not say a word all the ways back to the SQN, moreover, I think I made a few dire mistakes here and there in flight. Damn…

But with god’s grace, boss passed me and gave me 2 reviews to get my mistakes sorted out. The next day I was scrambled for my review with one of the oldest DXO in the SQN. They called him the godfather, not because he speak or talks like one Italian mafia, but he really
is like a godfather who really slow down the pace and teach n guide me through my mistakes. Instructors here are not out to fail the students but to help in whatever they can to guide the students to be a professional pilot in the RSAF.

Am just glad to be still in the SQN… Bros and sis back home, whatever the challenge it is we must face it with courage and overcome it. Take care and hope to talk to you guys soon…

Well guys, been having some problem loading photos to me blog soo shall upload then to my friendster acc.. see ya...
