TK using Canon...tsk tsk...

 

Was certainly an awesome dinner, 6 nerds chowing down the finest lamb cutlets i've tasted! Please thank Eugene for suggesting it!!

 

The "1313" code was so ATC knows that cheeky MH pilot is flying! 291 POB (ie all but the toilet seats taken!)...yet MH still canning flights...

 

LeeCh, glad to see you remember! Next trip, we're going back..and you've gotta try the lamb.

 

Iggy, Perth has clear blue skies, but is DAMN cold right now

code 1313 = Transponder, assign code by ATC...

This transponder will transmit my data of Height, Speed and Direction into their radar...so they see me in the sky.

Transponder is 4 digits of numbers from Zero to Seven (0-7)

 

you wont see transponder code 8888...NEVER...i tried..he he he

 

Faridz......no switch to switch ON or OFF....ND scale. even MH Jumbo doesn't have it.

as for the airBUS...first glass cockpit on A310 has scale on it...till A380.

Hello Everyone...

 

Wow, i am so surprise that this topic is still alive...

I spent 10 months on the Boeing 737-400, then i decided not to waste time and switch to the -800.

SV Choong, for the past few years on the 737....

737 roster are more tighter than time on the 777.

I lost weight, early morning flights, short night stops out of stations and Bay of Bengal runs!!

70 hours on the 777 was 4 men crew...long haul + maybe 2 flights 2 men crew like Perth and Hong Kong.

70 hours on the 737 IS i starts the CFM56 engines many more times!!!!!

I fly many more sectors (short ones)....

It builds experience.

My thanks to Cikgu for reviving this topic!

 

TK, plz keep this going - great to have an insider view. :)

 

As Capt Nik has said, it is not just about accumulated flying hours. Its also about how many cycles you have done. 737s are the workhorse of many airline fleets. This is where pilots cut their teeth.

Dear TK,

Thanks for the response and make this topic HOT again.

In fact, this is one of the topic that i set it into my favorites page.

Unfortunately, i lost the topic that is started by LeeCH which is very hot also few years back.

i think it was deleted for some reasons.

Thank you thank you very much for sharing your experience with us.

Hopes to see more updates from you.
