    glass cockpit, maybe?
  2. AFAIK, the 737NG used by jet is quite enough. load on the MAA flight out from KUL is pretty good, sometimes packed up to 90%.. yes they're doing well in this sector..
  3. there is no senior junior business la..we're all going there for one main aim..better if all of us work together for the betterment of all of us =) ur still halfway through some course, Andy?
  4. yours should be a little later, Andy since it's in february. i'm joining them on the 20th of August and i'll keep you updated ok. cheers!
  5. nah don't worry..this isn't biggie...afterall our senators are all paid to talk, talk and do more talking....
  6. i agree with Izanee there, but please, don't just replicate someone else's work. it'll be nice if you used that only as a reference and come up with your own one. furthermore, your cover letter doesn't have to be so bombastic. good luck Yohan!
  7. saw it too..and the first thing that crossed my mind is to ask you, Pieter, any idea what's it all about?
  8. i think the meal looks expensive when they actually list the price down. usually, when you travel on other carriers and you pay RM800/900 for the ticket, they do not list how much you're paying for your food.. the price is very very cheap...can't wait to see what airasiax can offer now..
  9. they did the manual landing gear procedures and had to circle around the airport..thankfully, it worked.. was told that AFJ has had that problems before, and even after the incident, it did occur again.
  10. from what i heard, it had a LGCIU1 (Landing Gear Control Interface Unit 1) fault..
  11. i've seen the same cover letter in another forum..hopefully it belongs to you...
  12. there is absolutely no harm in doing whatsoever test you want. but how many people have been victims to these? history keeps repeating itself without a fullstop anywhere. we're not talking about test robots or something so sophisticated that we don't need the human brain to control them. i'd say enough is enough. time is moving so fast that there are new inventions coming up daily. we can't still stick to the 50s and 40s technology and sacrifice more lives. i wonder if there were to be a VIP in that copter, what would have been done by now.
  13. oh no, not the cat and the mouse fighting again? seems like in malaysia, before a solution is achieved, there must be some constant spat between both sides. after that, if you're lucky, a 3rd party comes into the fray and settles things up.
  14. MAS again, overbooked by over 50 people..lets see how far is this going.. http://www.nst.com.my/Current_News/NST/Mon...icle/index_html
  15. or maybe time for a massive strike by them. till then, the excuse will still be "usable condition"
  16. i seriously don't know about MAS..most of the time it is not made public. but why not you give AirAsia a try? i think there would be another opening next year as they've selected their candidates for this years batch.. anyways, i'm due to join them in their 5th batch, feb 2008.
  17. nice shots guys there..anyways, all of you on a 400mm lense? great shots!
  18. PUTRAJAYA: Felda youths will take to the skies under an agreement with AirAsia to train them to become pilots. Felda will sponsor each youth at a cost of RM180,000 for one-and-a-half years of training, and the airline has agreed to provide guaranteed employment to those who make the cut. The first batch of five youths have been identified as possible trainees and will be interviewed for admission into the next session of AirAsia’s pilot training programme, to begin next year, Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak announced yesterday. He said the candidates were all Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) holders and would be required to pass several tests to ensure they met the requirements. "We will increase the number of candidates in future batches. "The investment to train each person is high but they will stand a chance of becoming pilots and will have guaranteed employment by AirAsia if they graduate successfully," Najib told a press conference after launching Felda’s Golden Jubilee celebrations at the Putrajaya International Convention Centre here. Another 75 will be trained under Syarikat Penerbangan Awam to become aircraft maintenance engineers, at a cost of RM125,000 each. Both training programmes come under Felda’s allocation to provide skills training to settlers, especially unemployed youths who are still living in the land schemes. An allocation of RM25 million was spent on skills training in 2004. The amount has been doubled to RM50 million since 2005. To date, 8,660 people have completed their training in various industries and hold qualifications at the certificate and diploma level. "Felda youths must not be satisfied with passing their SPM and limit their ambitions to running small shops by the roadside, or becoming mechanics and remain within their settlements. They should have bigger dreams," Najib said in his speech when opening the event. "Our programmes for Felda youths will be aimed at building professional skills. The first generation of settlers opened up land, the subsequent generations should open their minds." Najib also announced other goodies for the 317 settlements nationwide: • RM1.68 million a month to be distributed in the settlements to improve and beautify their surroundings and public amenities. The idea is to turn settlements into "garden communities"; • A RM10,000 grant for each settler home that is old and in poor condition. Najib said there were 3,662 houses in this condition and the total cost to renovate them would be RM36.6 million; • A maximum loan of RM40,000 for settlers who want to enlarge their houses. The loan is interest- free for 15 years and there have been 5,907 applications; and • New street lighting in 50 settlements costing RM10.5 million, to be completed by the end of this year. Najib said Felda was still considering this year’s bonus payout and duit raya allocation.
