Mechanical Workshop - Big Gears!!

This whole week I was stationed to Landing Gear Workshop. My foreman, Mr Nizam is a young and well capable man. I was quite shocked to see at the working environment when I first stepped into the place - quiet, cold and bored. Staffs were very unfriendly and harsh. They did not seem to welcome our presence at all except a few of them, who willingly to teach us. Thank you, Abg Din, Abg Nizam, Abg Sahir and Abg Kader for your patience and kindness in filling us with all sort of knowledge relating to Aircraft landing Gears.

Deceived Senses

Am I being sarcastic?
I doubt that
Am I a sadist?
I don't think so
Could I be the murderer and not the lover?
I probably could

You don't even know me
How can you ever care?
You try to sort things out
To break the tough nut in between
You, me and everyone else
It's your choice, your all
But all I've ever cared for is you

six degrees of separation
That's the distance between you and I
Look deep into me
And not just at the surface
Tell me, what do you see?
Can you tell the difference now?

Slide Down, and Stand Up! That's LIFE!!

My first week in MAS Complex A for my On-Job Training (OJT) was a fruitful experience as I got to learn and observe a lot of new things which were very much related to my field of study. I was stationed at Aircraft Support Workshop ( Safety Equipment). The Safety Equipment is divided into 3 areas, namely the Safety Slide Raft Area, FIREX (Fire Extinguisher) and Life Vast area. Yong, Suhaimi and me were in Safety Slide Raft Area. Our supervisor, Mr Zaidin is a friendly and responsible man who in charge of the workshop. I meet new friends, who are 'seniors' in this workshop; Amin, Abang Bulat (Indra), Mr 001, Mr Zulkarnian, Abg Emer, and Abg Mad J. They are very helpful and always willing to teach us from A-Z about the aircraft safety slide. I learn a lot of new knowledge and maintenance skill from them. I got to 'hands-on' with some simple tasks, such as inspection, testing, packing and repairing of slide. It really give me the exposure that I need so badly thus I will be able to adapt well in the aviation industry in future, right?

Thanks, everyone!

The Good Samaritan Part2


If you still can recall one of my earliest posts (The Good Samaritan), finally, I have an answer now. This evening when I was walking back to my condominium from the the car-park, this Indian guy who has been working as security guard, returned the money that he had borrowed from me last month. I apologized to that Indian man for misunderstanding him, and of course I have a bad impression on him when I first lent him the money. At least, I proved myself wrong, that there are still people in this world who are honest and trustworthy. I helped him because I believe in my heart that this person was really in difficulties, for he needed my assistance urgently. I do not ask anything in return and I will not mind even if he does not return the money to me! I was suspicious with my decision at first, but now I am very sure I did the correct thing!

Thank you God, for showing me Your power and mercy!!



Hurray ...
God bless!!

Karen Kong, the rising star ...

Karen Kong (Kong Ke Yin) performed a Spanish version of a song entitled Purest of Pain, which was originally sang by Son of 4 Four in Arena of Star, Genting Highlands in conjunction with the Nation Charity Show 2007. She is young, active and talented, especially her ability to sing songs in multi-language such as Bahasa Melayu, English, Mandarin and the latest Spanish. At the end of show, she dressed up in traditional Korean costume, in particular as a Korean Drum performer which caught the attention of the crowds. She danced gracefully as the Hong Kong singer, Chan Wei Lun sang the song, Jewel in The Palace, a theme for a popular Korean drama series. The purpose of that concert was to raise funds for the need, especially the for the 'special children'. The outcome, was a total of RM 65k collected thanks to the generosity and full participation by the public.

Happy Birthday Yong ...

Happy 19th Birthday to Yong, one of my best friends in METC on 13th November 2007 ...
May your wishes come true as God's lights shine on you always ...


To celebrate his birthday, we went for a dinner at Little Bally, SS15, PJ. We bought his a yogurt cream birthday cake. Haha :) Hope you enjoy it, Yong! A little to surprise to him to mark his 19th birthday; he was 'sabotaged' by j-kiml and Nicholas with the cake on his entire face. Hurray ...

Hmmm, overall Little Bally is a nice place with quite a romantic environment. Comparing Little Bally's food with Station oNe in SS15 as well, definitely Little Bally needs to brush up more. In my opinion, I think Little Bally is only famous for its drinks, especially hard liquor alcohol. By the way, I ordered a Honey Green Tea and it tasted no difference with typical green tea, yet worse still, it was so damn sweet! This was the lousiest green tea that I have ever drank, and seriously I mean it!!

One thing which made that night a memorable one, was I got to know this beautiful waitress. Wow, she is HOT and SEXY! A sweet, fair and attractive girl. Her name is ... Better keep it with myself. Haha. Well, next time if I ever drop by Little Bally again, maybe I may get a free drink from her ho? Haha ... ;)

ManUtd sails through in style

Manchester United put up another incredible performance to demolish Dynamo Kiev by bagging in 4 goals to cruise smoothly into the last 16 UEFA Champions League Knock Out phase. The triumph in front of the loyal supporters at The Theater of Dream marked a sweet memory for Sir Alex Ferguson as he celebrated his 21st years in charge at ManUtd's helm with 2o trophies under his belt, most recognizing, 9 EPL titles and 1 UEFA Champion League Cup. Goals from Spanish youngster, Gerard Pique put ManUtd in front on 31st minutes. Just moments later, Carlos Tevez played great masterpiece one two skill with Wayne Rooney to add another goal, hence ManUtd headed into dressing room with full confident. After the interval, both Wayne Rooney and Christiano Ronaldo made it double to secure the victory ... 8 goals against Dynamo Kiev, the Ukraine League Champion, both at home and away will definitely sends shock wave to the other European rivals, the likes of Arsenal, Barcelona, AC Milan and Real Madrid that ManUtd is able to challenge for the biggest prize in the spring before Euro 2008.

Hurray ManUtd ... Glory!!!

Human Factors

Human Factors Class used to be very bored and dull during Cat A programme. However, ever since the remedial class recently, I have changed my perspective. Now, the lesson is more lively with more focus on practical application rather than just theoretical study. Our lesson today is very much interesting and different as Mr Shaharil plans something 'unexpected' for us ...

We started off with building a paper aeroplane with an A4 paper. To make our aeroplane looks realistic, we were asked to write on our aeroplane's name, logo, and registration marks. Next, this is something very cool. We get to try on this "Paper Aeroplane Simulator" on the following address : http://www.workman.com/etcetera/games/fliersclub/

Click on this link and see whether you can fly your aeroplane at the furthest distance; our record: 90feets

After completing the simulator, we put our designed paper aeroplane to fly outside METC compound. It was really fun, and we managed to emerge as 1st runner up, one position behind Vicki's and Nantha's group. Yeah ... Hurrray, Group4


This is how our aeroplane looks like, the Boeing's Concorde ... Haha :)



The aerodynamics design of Concorde aircraft
enables its to fly at maximum speed up to Mach4


This is actually how our aeroplane looks like; a typical paper aeroplane
Does it looks similar to Boeing's Concorde? Hurray ... (",)


During the whole process at the very first beginning, we actually learn alot of Human Factors aspects which cover in our module. The method of learning is fun and meaningful, with everyone is really having an enjoyable and exciting moments.
Hurrayy ...

Human Factors in Aviation?

Complicated but manageable ... ;)
