Part 2 - I wanna be a pilot!! But, HOW??

Let us continue from the previous post of "I wanna be a pilot!! But, HOW??"

Now you guys should be cleared with the private way (straight to the academy by making your payment up) and it is a No-go for those financial problem pilot wanna be.

Don't give up!
There's a dream, there's a will;
There's a will, there's a determination;
There's a determination, there's a motivation;
There's a motivation, there's an action;
and there you go for your ambition.

"Apply to the airlines"

Here you solve your financial problem. Send you application to airlines with the cadet pilot position. Attach with your relevant documents ( CV, education cert., pictures,...)

Competition:
Well, same procedures go to how you can get your JPA scholarship - A though competition.
Bear in mind, you are not the only in this world who wants to be a pilot!
Human nature~ When we are over stable on the land, we wish to stable in the sky; When the land is flooded/earthquake then we wish to be stable on the land. Isn't it?! XD
Therefore, a tough competition is a must that you have to go through it. Psychometric test, psychomotor test, checking your english,physic(science),maths,interview, medical check up,...Well, all these are depends on the airlines itself. It is be seperated to few "stages".

Final..:
Once you get it (pass every single stages), you will then be called up/receive an email. So make sure all your contact ways are fully reachable.
If you failed it *touch wood*, face the fact and keep trying,ok?! No harm and you gain experience in answering. =)

Pros:
1. Airlines will pay behalf of you. You will be having no worries in paying such a lump sum for yout piloting fees especially those with financial problem/cant afford 1...
2. Job is secured. Contract is there.
Though human sometime tends to be like..I'm a pilot now, I have the experience now and I wish to go to other airlines because their offer is nicer. But please... Before you making that move, appreciation who makes you achieve your dream. At least finish servicing the contract 1st,k?! Bring out your appreciation.
3. For sure that, right after you grad., you will be trained to fly the jet.

Cons:
1. Be bonded. (But look at the positive side, don't always be so negative ;) )
2. It takes 6 months-24 months(the longest time i have seen from my friends due to backlog) to finish all the stages. So make sure you utilize and plan your time well.

Airlines in Malaysia which will take in cadet pilot is : Malaysia Airlines(MH) and AirAsia(AK)

To check out when will the airlines having the intake,
normally via 1. The Star Newspaper (Malaysia newspaper) , 2. Jobstreet/jobmonster/.... 3. Airlines website.

Last but not least, Good luck for you guys~ ;)

文字(wording)

能感動人的不是文字的本身，而是文字觸碰到我們內心的深處...

Neither beautiful nor meaningful wording makes you feel touching, but is because every single word hits the actual inner feeling of yours...

Don't you feel so? Because feel it, that's why read it....

不这样觉得吗？ 因为能感觉到，所以继续读下去。。。

其實每個女生都是一個傻丫頭

其實每個女生都是一個傻丫頭

　　
一。和她發短信時，回復一定要快，讓她覺得你放下手上的事情立刻回復她，字數一定要比她的多，這樣她會覺得你很在乎她。
　　
二。每天睡覺之前一定要給她一條道「晚安」的短信，不管你有多晚，因為她可能一直在等你，只是她嘴上說不管。即便是她已經昏昏睡去，第二天一醒來也會立刻去查收信息。
　　
三。看到她的未接電話要立刻打過去，任何時候不要讓她找不到你，因為這樣她會一直很不安心。
　　
四。你問她想不想你時，如果她說不想，你不要生氣，因為她的不想就是想。
　　
五。千萬要記得女生都是害羞的，不要什麼都讓她主動。也不要在她表現心疼、吃醋、關心你的時候不停地問，只要偷偷地笑心裡甜就夠了，也許她不想讓你知道她無時無刻不在想對你好。
　　
六。經常去她的空間逛逛，即使什麼也不留下，但是她看到你來過的痕跡也會很開心，也許有些心情就是為你而寫。順便看看她的心情日誌什麼的，還有她好友的留言，多知道點她的小秘密挺好，準備驚喜也容易點。
　　
七。牽了手就不要輕易說分手，吵架的時候也不要說。如果她賭氣跑開，只要一個用力的擁抱就能讓她安靜，就能讓她感覺到你的愛。希望你能懂她離開時想要被挽留，如果說出口那只是乞求來的溫柔。
　　
八。開始一段新的戀情的前提是放下前面的所有戀情，你可以把她們給你的信物和美好記憶保留著，但是請把這些用一個匣子藏在她永遠不會發現的地方，因為那些她不知道的事對於她是致命的傷害。記住女生都是敏感的動物。
　　
九。如果一時衝動分了手，請給彼此冷卻的時間，想清楚她就是你想要的人就勇敢地告訴她，不管用什麼手段，死皮賴臉也好讓她回到你身邊就好。如果真的愛她就 不要放開她，不要讓她傷心，不要讓她流淚，你明明知道她有多傻，她會傻傻等你的，你知道女生的青春有多麼寶貴麼！如果你還心疼她絕不要在分手不到一個月就 移情別戀，這樣等於在她傷口上撒鹽。請你交換角色想一想，如果你女朋友和你分手第二天就在別的男人懷裡開心地笑，你的心會有多痛？
　　
如果你有一個傻丫頭，請你好好珍惜她好好愛她好嗎？也許你不知道你的一句關心，你的一個微笑，你的一個吻，一個擁抱，一個摸頭髮的動作都是她的幸福，其實她要的只是這麼簡單。她不奢求太多的驚喜，太多的浪漫，有你就是她所有的幸福。
　　
不要輕易放開她，因為她是傻丫頭，她會在別人面前裝的很強，對每個人微笑，然後半夜一個人躲在樓梯拐角處偷偷哭啼，她會不停地聽著和你有關的歌，默默關注著你，默默的生病，默默的流淚，她會開始變的沉默，變得開始唱悲傷的歌，彈悲傷的曲子。
　　
如果你真的有一個傻丫頭請記得你說的話好嗎？請你讓她幸福，給她幸福，要自信的對她說：「我會讓你變成全世界最幸福的人，我要讓所有的人都羨慕你有一個好老公。」
　　
最後祝福所有的傻丫頭們，繼續你們的幸福，傻傻的幸福~~

人生不要太圓滿 作者:張忠謀

人生不要太圓滿 作者:張忠謀


人生不要太圓滿，有個缺口讓福氣流向別人是很美的一件事』

在一個講究包裝的社會裡，我們常禁不住羨慕別人光鮮華麗的外表，

而對自己的欠缺耿耿於懷。

但就我多年觀察，我發現沒有一個人的生命是完整無缺的，

每個人多少少了一些東西。

有人夫妻恩愛、月入數十萬，卻是有嚴重的不孕症；

有人才貌雙全、能幹多財，情字 路上卻是坎坷難行；

有人家財萬貫，卻是子孫不孝；

有人看似好命，卻是一輩子腦袋空空。

每個人的生命，都被上蒼劃上了一道缺口，

你不想要它，它卻如影隨形。

以前我也痛恨我人生中的缺失，但現在我卻能寬心接受，

因為我體認到生命中的缺口，彷若我們背上的一根刺，

時時提醒我們謙卑，要懂得憐恤。

若沒有苦難，我們會驕傲，沒有滄桑，我們不會以同理心去安慰不幸的人。

我也相信，人生不要太圓滿，

有個缺口讓福氣流向別人是很美的一件事，

你不需擁有全部的東西，若你樣樣俱全，那別人吃什麼呢？

也體認到每個生命都有欠缺，我也不會再與人作無謂的比較，

反而更能珍惜自己所擁有的一切。

猶記得我那可稱為台灣阿信的企業家姑媽，

在年近七旬遁入空門前告訴我：

「這輩子所結交的達官顯貴不知凡幾，他們的外表實在都令人豔羨，

但深究其裡，每個人都有一本很難唸的經，甚至苦不堪言。」

所以，

不要再去羨慕別人如何如何，好好數算上天給你的恩典，

你會發現你所擁有的絕對比沒有的要多出許多，

而缺失的那一部分，雖不可愛，

卻也是你生命的一部分，接受它且善待它，

你的人生會快樂豁達許多。

如果你是一個蚌，你願意受盡一生痛苦而凝結一粒珍珠，

還是不要珍珠，寧願舒舒服服的活著？

如果你是一隻老鼠，你突然發覺你已被關進捕鼠籠，

而你前面有一塊香噴噴的蛋糕，這時，你究竟是吃還是不吃呢？

早期的撲滿都是陶器，一旦存滿了錢，就要被人敲碎；

有這麼一隻撲滿，一直沒有錢投進來，一直瓦全到今天，

他就成了貴重的古董， 你願意做哪一種撲滿？

你每想到一次就記下你的答案，直到有一天你的答案不再變動，

那就是你成熟了！

忘了多久前看過這篇文章不同的時間
不同的心情 不同的際遇 心中無限感觸

你留意過你的父母嗎?

如果你在一個平凡的家庭長大，如果你的父母還健在，不管你有沒有和他們同住——

如果有一天，你發現媽媽的廚房不再像以前那麼乾淨；

如果有一天，你發現家中的碗筷好像沒洗乾淨；

如果有一天，你發現母親的鍋子不再雪亮；

如果有一天，你發現父親的花草樹木已漸荒廢；

如果有一天，你發現家中的地板衣櫃經常沾滿灰塵；

如果有一天，你發現母親煮的菜太鹹太難吃；

如果有一天，你發現父母經常忘記關瓦斯；

如果有一天，你發現老父老母的一些習慣不再是習慣時，就像他們不再想要天天洗澡時；

如果有一天，你發現父母不再愛吃青脆的蔬果；

如果有一天，你發現父母愛吃煮得爛爛的菜；

如果有一天，你發現父母喜歡吃稀飯；

如果有一天，你發現他們過馬路行動反應都慢了；

如果有一天，你發現在吃飯時間他們老是咳個不停，千萬別誤以為他們感冒或著涼，(那是吞嚥神經老化的現象) ；

如果有一天，你發覺他們不再愛出門……

如果有這麼一天，我要告訴你，你要警覺父母真的已經老了，器官已經退化到需要別人照料了。

如果你不能照料，請你替他們找人照料，並請你請你千萬千萬要常常探望，不要讓他們覺得被遺棄了。

每個人都會老，父母比我們先老，我們要用角色互換的心情去照料他，才會有耐心、才不會有怨言，當父母不能照顧自己的時候，為人子女要警覺，他們可能會大小 便失禁、可能會很多事都做不好，如果房間有異味，可能他們自己也聞不到，請不要嫌他臟或嫌他臭，為人子女的只能幫他清理，並請維持他們的“自尊心”。

當他們不再愛洗澡時，請抽空定期幫他們洗身體，因為縱使他們自己洗也可能洗不干淨。當我們在享受食物的時候，請替他們準備一份大小適當、容易咀嚼的一小碗，因為他們不愛吃可能是牙齒咬不動了。

從我們出生開始，餵奶換尿布、生病的不眠不休照料、教我們生活基本能力、供給讀書、吃喝玩樂和補習，關心和行動永遠都不停歇。如果有一天，他們真的動不了了，角色互換不也是應該的嗎？

為人子女者要切記，看父母就是看自己的未來，孝順要及時。

樹欲靜而風不止、子欲養而親不在

你留意過自己的父母嗎?

Drunk pilot jailed six months

A Delta Air Lines pilot was jailed for six months by a UK court for turning up drunk in London to fly a transatlantic passenger plane, the British media reported Monday.

George La Perle, from Boston, was stopped by security officers at Heathrow airport at 8.30am on November 1 last year because he reeked of alcohol, Isleworth Crown Court in west London was told.

When asked, the 49-year-old First Officer said he was flying to New York - when his actual destination was Detroit.

He was later discovered to have four-and-a-half times the legal amount of alcohol for pilots in his blood.

La Perle, who has 20 years of flying experience, was due to be one of three pilots in the cockpit of a Boeing 767, with 240 passengers on board.

He pleaded guilty to performing an aviation function with excess alcohol and was jailed on Friday, according to the Daily Mail, however, reports only began to circulate on Monday.

Judge Phillip Matthews told him: "The consequences for the passengers on that plane, if you had piloted for any stage of that journey, which was a distinct possibility bearing in mind that is what you were employed to do, were potentially catastrophic."

Part 1 - I wanna be a pilot!! But, HOW??

As usual, In a month, been few people asked me how to be a pilot.

The most surprising part is I was told.. "I wanna be a pilot and I think of applying it!"
while the other one asking for the info. of HOW TO BE A PILOT?

2 of my friends, they're basically doing their degree and soon to finish. Glad to hear it.
Well, I'm not so sure what has made them wanna be a pilot. Money? Career? Chicks? Job? Title? Status? Sound interesting? or.....? @@

Anyway, that's not my concerned and not my business at all.
If you sincerely dream/wish to be a pilot, go ahead. I will be here supporting all the information which you need to know.

Firstly, I wish you guys can understand for a thing. Aviation isn't the outlook you're currently can see. It has much things at behind which you still don't really know. Lets go for some examples/info.

Those who haven't read this 2011 news of aviation in Malaysia industry please read it up before you head towards aviation piloting field.
Click HERE

Well, no joke. I won't say it is 100% correct but it is as high as 90% the info. is correct.

Lets go into the chapter of....

"Application directly to Flying Academy"

In the past, when piloting was still an expensive course and the airlines was still growing gently..( before SARS, economy crisis and etc.) , market demands was really high for pilots. Airlines sends their cadets to the flying academy... with sponsorship.

Well, now, still the same. Due to the pilots' requirement has been loosen up, more and more people be able to achieve their dream and become a pilot (such as eyesight, height,... and etc).

Lets go straight to the point,

Neglect which course you graduate from. In Malaysia the min requirement//No matter how high your education level is, fall back to SPM certificate. In other meaning, take your SPM result out, make a photocopy->attach relevant documents->write a letter to DCA for approval in pursuing piloting course->wait the reply from DCA. If your SPM result for those subjects required are in credit, 100% you will get the approval from DCA to pursue your piloting course.

Piloting course takes min. 18 months. In this 18 months , it is provided that you pass the ground subject with 1st attempt, when schedule you for a flight, the weather is co-operate with you all the time (which means, you need not to keep canceling your flight for practicing purpose). Other than that will be hoping for no backlog. Then grad. in 18 months is a possible.

None of the flying academy at the moment provide neither sponsorship nor scholarship in piloting except airlines. Different airlines having different company policy. Bonding will be different as well.
Course fees for piloting is a plus minus of RM 250,000. (Depends on the fuel price which may fluctuate from time to time so with the currency to pounds/Europe money)

As per the chart, there are 8 Flying Academies in Malaysia. That's the latest info. on 18th Jan 2011. Anyway, for the academy in Sandakan, the flying school is no longer named as Austral Academy but is International Training Aero Academy, IATA (formerly known as IFAS/Austral Academy). From the chart above, check out which flying Academy you're interested to study at. (Based on your location, academy facilities, aircraft fleets, establishment and etc.. whichever you like. Next, google up the name and get the contact number and reach them. As simple as that.)

For Private student/application straight to the flying academy/self-sponsored,

Procedures are as follow,

1. SPM result, make a photocopy->attach relevant documents->write a letter to DCA for approval in pursuing piloting course->wait the reply from DCA. If your SPM result for those subjects required are in credit, 100% you will get the approval from DCA to pursue your piloting course.

2. Go to any panel doctor (Make an appointment 1st. list of the panel doctors is obtainable from the flying academy which you would like to join. From there, pick up a panel doctor which near to your current location.) -> do the medical check up -> Get your Class 1 medical.

*After step 1 and 2, call up your flying academy whether is there any entry test be conducted. (Lately, more and more flying academy starts to conduct entry test to eliminate those spoil apples. Prevent parents invest the wrong money for their child and to make sure the academy reputation is still up to the standard)

3. Go back to the flying Academy -> submit the approval letter from DCA + Class 1 medical report + Booking fees for your enrollment into that batch&1st payment(monthly installment) to the Academy (registration department).

The rest of it is...your own role, study, fly, tests, exams and pay.

*With the financial problem pilot wanna be, this is a No-Go course for you. Well, don't be so upset...lets check out the airlines ways. Never Give up! I will be here in guiding you. ;)

Private way... Solved!

Up coming post,...how to apply sponsorship/cadetship with airlines. =)
