Module 1 pass!
I got my results 2 days ago, pretty anxious when the instructors told us that our results are out, but they added "dont worry, everyone passed" a huge relief to my anxiety to Principles of Flight paper. My favourite subject which i found out i got 3/8 of the allowed errors after the examinations. luckily, those were the only 3 questions i got wrong for the paper #asian. the best part of it was that i won a bet with Phoebe, she is gonna be my maid for a week. and the bet? she thought i would fail a subject. haha. in a way, she gave me some positivity during the times i dread for my results. thank you phoebe............for being my maid. hah.
the past few days were alright, currently learning Mass and Balance of the aircraft, and Operations module about the rules and regulations of the a/c, the control zone etc. i am pretty shocked once again on the depth of accuracy, precision and safety measurements being placed on the a/c and the airspace we are going to fly in, with all the safety measures and implementations, it is highly improbable that any accident would happen. (10^-9 - figure taken from AGK ) hahaha. but then again, accidents still happen. such is the way of life. nothing is impossible, even with such a low probability.
this module, we are learning Mass and Balance, Area Navigation, Operations, General Navigation, Flight planning, Human Factors, Performance. So far, the first three seems feasible, but the harder ones are the last 4 topics. better buck up with studying while i can before workload takes over!
currently, our standard working is till thursday, before taking a break until saturday to restart our work engine.
another aspect i like about the DragonAir batch, they stick as a team, work as a team, help each other as a team, everything is never about I, it is about US. something Qatar lacks. with all the individualism in this team. its pretty tough to crack through everyone's wall. with some people getting on my nerves lately with their actions, i kinda gave up on trying to build camaradarie amongst us.
Focus.
Focus on passing and be a pilot.
that's the main priority.
to fly.
to touch the sky.
