hi again...

my dad & i recently talked about this longshot of me getting into PAL Av School. he knows these management people too well and he's pretty convinced that my best chance is when the current management retires.. but by then i'll be 28 . although my dad got in PAL a few years older than that, he already had experience flying with the PAF whereas i only see a cockpit in a videogame.

i'll still apply early next year and he'll see if there's anything he can do to help me get in, but we're also looking at other options. there's OMNI and there's also Clark Institute of Aviation (though not too keen on that since it's new & unheard of). of course what i'll miss if ever i can't get in PAL will be going straight from training to the cockpit as an SO . my dad still has a good 10-15 flying years in him so i'm blessed to have parents that can afford to send me to a flying school.

i got nothing to lose right now, this is what i wanna do afterall... wish me luck.
