long time no blog cos of FLU

I'm back from my flu! but some of it is still with me =(

Had mah joyride yesterday! Man it was fun. my pilot was BG Gary Yeo, who happens to be Mark's uncle :P.
Wanted to get front seat, but lost when we played Oh Ya Peh Ya Som. Haiz, so had to contend with the back seat. Cockpit small and cozy, but it could get quite warm if we were stationary.
40+ sorties on the flight simulator definitely made me much much more familiar with the plane's instruments and the surrounding scenery, than my other two companions.
First we were taken to 1500 ft. then we turned, went down to Alpha training area, above Pierce reservoir. Then we went to Bukit Timah Hill, made two 2 G turns. (in layman terms, during a 2G turn u feel twice ur weight.) so yah, then we climbed to 4000 ft as we proceeded into Bravo training area. There our dear co pilot, (which i so wanted to be) took control for around 5 seconds. Then we circled and had a magnificent view from one side of singapore the the next. We were sooo lucky to have good visibility on that day. As the timer on the instrument panel clocked 25 mins, our pilot took us down to 1500 ft, and made an approcach towards seletar, at 800 ft. Due to the fact that my landings on the simulator SUCKS, i tried to pick up some tips from the pilot. However, on the 800 ft approach, it was a missed one, I think i heard ATC asking him to perform a missed approach. So he pulled up. On the next approach, we came in at 500 ft. This time, airspeed, 75 knots, VSI -5, Flaps 30 deg, i couldnt really see the glide path, so yeah, that was it. Everything was maintained until flare height, and touchdown. Yay, what a fun flight, hahaz. As i was gonna leave the airport, i was presented with a pleasant piece of news, I'm accepted into the flying course! orlanda quick quick! sign up now!
