Damn... can't find it now. So here's an R/C A380 instead!

it is suicidal to do inverted flight on commercial planes even some are possible.

we wouldn't want the passengers and stewardess to land on their heads right?

anyway, let's try it on the MS flight sim instead. last time i tried, my plane ended up stalling and overstressed even b4 i managed to turn upside down

Here is a link to the first ever passenger class aircraft to do a loop. It wasn't a production 707 as I had assumed. Anyways, you can read about it.

And hoongji, I don't think any sane person would try to do a loop with either cargo or passengers in the fuselage.

hoongji,how many times did you actually send your resume before they replied.....

i only sent once. replied one month later.

there's an average of 2-3 intakes a year. one intake will be after the annual career talk in signapore (december). another one or two intakes will be sometime later in march, april or may. you have to check the press for their recruitment ad. then only you send your application. if you send outside the recruitment time window, most probably your application will be backlogged

Sorry i forgot to take the A380 sim place. I replace with this instead. The pic is a lil bit blur coz my hp dosent have the anti-shake thing.

add: Johor Approach VOR/ILS Runway 16. U can see the Localizer and Glideslope at the First Officer's EADI.

is there any MLS landing practice on the sim?

I dont think the one in the pic has MLS its a 15 years old sim. Even the FMC is v5. The new ones are equipt with MLS. But only if u choose some europe airport.

some insider information on HMA, from the Cedets themselves

currently, Batch 1 has graduated.

Batch 2-12 are in, there are currently 230 students in the school.

Batch 2 is graduating soon,

HMA doesn't have enough planes and instructors,

so for certain batches, they are sent to Kota Bharu to train.

in HMA, you get 180 Actual Flight Time, and 20 simulator hours with Full-glass cockpit experience.

and DISCIPLINE is tight there..........

i've been there,

saw the Principal, CI, CGI, nice chaps i would say,..... but i believe they will be full till 2008.


also, they are STILL receiving MAS Cadets !!

May I know what's the salary for a fresh graduated pilot ?

for SIA,

second officer = SG2200 + allowances

Off topic a little..

for Malaysian DCA Class-1, the initial Medical required an opthalmologist check in Tun hussein onn eye hospital,


what about renewals? anyone have any ideas?

^
CPL is 12 monhts. Above 40 is 6 months.
SPL is 24 months. For class 1 and 2.

my friend from AK will come out from FMA this July or August and he has to find himself a job for around 4-5month until 2007 because AK will not be providing salary for them during the period.....

what is happening man ??

hoongji : remember to log-in to LYN once in a while after you're in the industry okie ??
crap....i'm way too unfit by SIA's standards

copy paste:
Beside having offered MSS to some 6000 current employees including pilots, MAS has also offered MSS to cadet pilots (batch no. 14 graduated from MFA and currently undergoing simulator training at Subang). Details of the MSS offer to cadet pilots as follows:-

(1) 15 years bond will be terminated if they accept the MSS plus a token of RM 2,000 (two thousand ringgit) will be given, OR

(2) if they do not accept the MSS, cadet pilots will still be bonded to 15 years and they may be assign to non-flight duties.

As you can see from the above, it is a clear sign that MAS now has a pool of surplus pilots as compared to 1 to 2 years ago. This was a result of giving up the domestic routes to AirAsia and the closing down of some unprofitable international routes.

It is no longer a rosy pictures for cadet pilots who are currently still undergoing training and more so for those who aspire to be cadet pilot. Having put in so much efforts and obtaining their ATPL within 16 months and now being offered the MSS is really a big DISAPPOINTMENT to the cadets.

LOL!
This is so 1994.
Pilots doing steward duties are not unheard of.
Guess it will be 2015 or 2016 when MAS will begin recruiting aggressively again. And the cycle begins again.

really?! XD

:x sorry for misleading you guys to 1994...

edit: in 94' its also called mss?

You misunderstood me.
You're right about this MSS thing.
But this is exactly what happened in 1994 when the government bailed out MAS from bankruptcy.

Surplus of pilots, company on the brink of bankruptcy.
