Is this for the military or does it also apply to commerical flights?Originally posted by kopiosatu:here's the stupid thing alot of people don't know. whenever some aircraft that's gonna land will have trouble with their landing gear, we'll be activated.
and that's pretty often.
the chopper will fly there and wait for the problem aircraft to crash. but if the landing gear is alright, the chopper fly back.
its funny how all this isn't known to the military enthusiasts. when they know what's real, they'll probably be less enthusiastic.
the aircraft is just a machinary, if you think cars break down often... well the same happens to an aircraft. only thing is that, no one knows unless you're in there.
most of the time militaryOriginally posted by elindra:Is this for the military or does it also apply to commerical flights?
Civilan helios, seems to be very smooth de... Maybe watch too much movies liaoOriginally posted by kopiosatu:most of the time military
i think commercial flights don't really have this problem.
but if there is, we'll be activated.
basically we bao ka liao, with minimum manpower. its just an accident waiting to happen.

Dont be surprised lor
My hubby have serviced some planes (non-SIA) that he is surprised that other engineers can pass it to fly as it's like an accident waiting to happen.
Some the fuel tank is so corroded that the fuel might just leak out one day
And this is why I'm too scared to fly by budget airline. I always wonder what cost cutting measures they adoptOriginally posted by elindra:

buey gam one lahOriginally posted by elindra:Only way to know more is to pay attention to my SO when he is rattling on about work. Usually I'm only half listening coz I have no idea what he is talking about
Ya la. So I rattle on about work he also don't understandOriginally posted by sbst275:buey gam one lah
one engineer the other in business
Originally posted by elindra:Ya la. So I rattle on about work he also don't understand
Anyway if he gets to technical I'll ask him all sorts of questions that in the end he don't want to reply coz it will be too much to explain
So we talk about everything else but work
LOL, in other news someone is saying my SO must be a boring guy coz he doesn't like soccer
I wrote back saying that it's the opposite coz I don't get a guy glued to the screen watching some men chase after a ball

Haha that day he wanted to stay up to watch dunno what match coz he placed a bet with Singapore Pools. Think the match was at 2am or something and he even bought snacks etc to stay up late.
He was in bed by 11pm
Can't remember. He was telling me when I was on WoW in a raid so I was half listening. Finished my game early and wanted to sleep.Originally posted by sbst275:I see by team..
