To Capt. Nik,

 

I can't thank you enough for such a wonderful wonderful awesome super-extravaganza (okay.. exaggerations are just my own opinion :D ) flying opportunity and experience! Plus with the tour to Eurocopter, AND lunch at their very very nice lounge. Was a great outing which you have made possible and I've made loads of friends today too because of that, so I am forever grateful for the chance to meet my fellow MW friends. Hehe... its either sugar high or what, but I still feel giddy about today... teeheeehhee... :D

 

To TK, Uncle Norman and Chong,

 

Thank you so much for capturing today's episode in your many many lenses ^_^ I am sure those who came today will be extremely grateful for your fish-eyes or cat-eyes or whatnots. Lugging those equipments around in that afternoon heat must be really tiring! And TK especially for his generosity for putting upfront cover for the funds in case we were short in cash for the total fees, plus helping with the end arrangements with the flying management team.

 

To all the pilots and aviation heavyweights who shared with us your flying stories,

 

Mucho gracias for the funny, dramatic, and always comical (other than the propellers meet people's bodyparts lah :blink: ) stories and shared experiences to us greenies. I doubt we could get this special insights if we were to hire our own flight instructors.

 

To everyone who came and made today's a very special day for me,

 

*GROUP HUGS* Thank you guys and gals. I can't thank you enough! Thank you to those who took my random photos when I couldn't take it myself. Thank you to Azuan for taking loads of nice pics of me controlling the Cessna 172 (and for putting up with my bad pics taken for him during his time, and also for putting up with my flying and manage to NOT puke! Haha...). And KK, thanks for the very much needed ice lemon tea treat! Truly refreshing :D

Dear Maleha, Meor, Kelvin, Diadrian, Wilson, KK Lee, Azuan, Victor, Razlizam, Chong HV Saadiah, Chen TW, Walter, Jerry Ang, Irni, Adrian, Teo ZY, Capt Norhisham, TK and Norman,

 

It was a pleasure meeting all of you, and arranging this little small time event for you all. Your enthusiasm and warm aproach more than makes up for what little time I spent putting this together. I hope you all really enjoyed the flying experience. Sorry I had to leave before the session ended but I knew you were in good hands with Capt Norhisham, TK and Norman around. I had an unavoidable engagement with a client.

 

Irni, you're one sharp 'chick' and it would not have been easy for me if you had not assisted in the 'administration' as you did when called upon.

 

I also hope you all enjoyed the light lunch prepared by Eurocopter. That would not have been possible if not for the Head Honcho there, YM Tengku Johan, a Superbiking buddy of mine. I truly hope his generosity is appreciated by all today.

 

Capt Norhisham also deserves special mention, spending the whole day with us all, having come all the way from Seremban.

 

Norman, TK, Chong and Capt Norhisham,, I can't wait to see your pix.

 

As for the flyers, I'm sure the experience taught you more than just about flying a plane. You now know a little more about flight dynamics, some airmanship, the discipline behind the operations of a flying machine, ATC and also the General Aviation scene around SZB. The view obviously looks different from the front seat.

 

And I want to see pics of you at the controls while airborne.

 

You guys have done what most have only talked about doing. :good:

 

And having experienced it yourselves, you CAN now organise another session amongst MWingers with little involvement from me.

 

Cheers All.....

 

PS, Post them pix. A picture tells a thousand words.....especially if its from a Canon....he he he :D

Eventhough I still 17 years old and I still aiming for flying,but deep short-sightedness surely makes me feel sad....

 

But, if can, can i attend the flying seesion nex time? :blush:

 

Captain Nik, pls..... :pardon:

I think i'll need to add on to that.
  • The experience and company: PRICELESS!!!

 

Oh yeah, rock on add on, Walter!

 

 

And :blush: thanks for the compliments, Capt Nik... but I'm just a channel not the key point, I couldn't do the job without multitude of helps from all members, like counting the RM1 notes lah, recounting the cash lah, getting all sorts of jobs done were actually done by everyone there who lend me multitude of hands.

 

All cheers to you guys mmwah! :clapping:

 

 

Ok photos done uploading.. will post some now in Walter's new thread!

Truly it is a total different experience compared with the knowledge I had from FS. I can proudly proclaim to the world that I once flew in an aircraft with my own hands on the flying yoke.

 

I truly enjoyed myself throughout the trip. I would like to thank everyone and especially to Captain Nik to make this event a successful one. Thank You Irni being a ketua ketua class for the trip and willingly to send me all the way home :)

 

THANK YOU ALL !! :D

there are so many aviation enthusiasts out there...

 

when they have the chance....i guess, they take it, when it comes to flying.

 

Aviation has been seen as a restricted area to so many people.

If we open a bit for them....many would come in.

 

No nonsense, no rubbish talk....they are an enthusiasts...they sure have the spirit of aviation in them.

 

just that sometime...they just hate aviation. Not their choice, but maybe they forget a few things....in aviation.

You're right TK, guess that's the reason why you spent the day taking their photos, as did capt Norhisham who came all the way from Seremban, and Tengku Johan, the Eurocopter Head Honcho who hosted us in his Customer Lounge despite knowing that none of us would be able to buy any heli from him....

 

Great Crowd....no bitchin' n' moanin' , just pure aviation spirit in them. They came with a smile, followed through with laughter, and left much richer in experience.....

Good to see you all enjoyed the flight(s) so much: flying a plane with your own hands will give you so much satisfaction !!!
