A soft serve cone for just 40 cents I think. We have Bulla in Malaysia as well. Can't think of any other brands that can be exported to Malaysia. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Attan 0 Report post Posted January 2, 2006 Have been reading some old issues of "Asian Aviation" at the Flying Club - they're good material. "Flying" is still my favourite but that's because I'm a GA jock. Bought two books at RM12 each at Popular Ampang Point two weeks ago - "Blue Max" by Jack Hunter and "633 Squadron" by Federick E. Smith. Both were made into movies. My best reads were "Samurai" by Saburo Sakai "Fate is the Hunter" by Ernest K. Gann "Flight of the Intruder" by Stephen Coonts "Fly the Wing" by James Webb - highly technical but useful "Baa Baa Black Sheep" by Greg Boyington "Lindbergh" by A. Scott Berg If you want extracts of the best aviation books in just one book I STRONGLY RECOMMEND "War In The Air" by Stephen Coonts (Pocket Books, New York) which includes stories from some of the above listed titles and those as far back as World War 1.

Teoh Z Yao 0 Report post Posted January 3, 2006 Hey... Was in The Mall yesterday and came to this second-hand bookstore - Chest. Saw a handbook - Conversation Guide for Cabin Crews, Malaysia Airlines. I think it's an official guide from MAA... Check it out! It's a typical handbook, light green cover with batik texture. Cheap; RM 10.00. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Attan, your suggestions are really great and I get noticed on my notbook. I'll try to find out in Turkish here, otherwise I'll look at bookstores in KL in English. especially "samurai" takes my interest becouse I read a few article about Saburo Sakai in an Turkish aviation magazine issues. Also they wrote about Erich Hartman's and Adolf Galland's life stories during two years. I read 633th Squadron and it was great "real life" story. I advise if you have to find "Dunquerk skies"(I couldn't find writer now) I'm sure all of people know Richard Bach's books. Especially 3 books just only about pure aviation but the rest of them generally about philosophy and human relations there is an another book published the same series with 633th SQ, which is Heinz Knoke's life story by written himself "la grande chasse" but probably book names can be change. If you have a chance to buy I advise also "FLIGHT- 100years of aviation" written by R.G Grant.It is very nice documentary book about aviation history since 2003. For newest GA pilots (so preparing to get their PPLs) ROd MAchado's Private Pilot Handbook would be help for knowledge before flight lessons. I'm buying new one or used today's pilot, pilot, airlinerworld, airlines,airways, aircraft illustrated special issues from KEymag. Also making collect Jusplanes-world air routes DVDs I was writing for an aviaiton newspaper-magazine and I had a corner (half page) until 3 years ago about virtual aviation but now I don't write.

Rozhan 0 Report post Posted December 26, 2007 (edited) MPH Mid Valley puts books on avaiation at two different places. Coffee-table types and such at one place, while technical and pilot-related ones in the engineering books section. Ask or directions from the customer service staff. They have a habit of moving them (the coffee table types) from one place to another. The engineering section should still be in the little 'reading room' together with law and accountancy books.
