i wish these were my textbooks

yesterday, i struck gold at the national library.

borrowed 2 aviation books: 'international air band radio handbook - the guide to worldwide air traffic control' by david j smith and 'your pilot's license - bestselling guide to getting your wings for over 25 years!' by jerry a eichenberger.

the former is full of aviation jargon and abbreviations and it took me awhile to understand some parts but overall it's quite readable to me. but the 2nd book, it's THE book for me, with explanations on how to control the aircraft (read: how to control roll, yaw, pitch, how to use the spoilers, rudder, elevators under what conditions, how to draw wind vectors etc etc) the best thing is that it's jargon free! :D yay i am so happy.

we went to changi coast road (i simply had to show my fb that place) and when we reached there we saw the a380 take off! at night!!!! :O whoohoo!!! went crazy for a few minutes after that. then we went to changi beach to plane spot for a while but it became evident that the fb was bored (who could blame her) so we went home.

haha. i shall end this post and continue reading my books! hehe

ps i so want the canon eos 1000D!!! -faints
