Feng Shui and Singapore
Do you know that the Singpore Govt (big owners of SQ and Silkair) uses Feng Shui to increase business and safety. Likewise, the RSAF insignia on the planes have been changed four times to align with forces of Feng Shui.
Any one wants to add on, please do so.

Did you know that aircraft from Muslim countries have Qibla's installed to show the direction of Mecca at all times and places.
So what's your point, Lee, ot titan, or Gladiator?
Maybe that's why Singapore has had the economic growth, and has been the success it is.
Thank you for your observation.

Pillow,
Yes, sure you can call me by my name - Lee.
My point is that over here (in Singapore), they rule by Feng Shui. If anything, goes wrong, they bring in a geomancer to change their luck. But they forget that there are pilots, who are humans who can make the difference.

Let me give you guys out there a few examples:
In the early days of the Air Force, then known as Singapore Air Defence Command, (SADC) when they flew Hawker Hunters, BAC Strikemasters, etc, the roundels used by the SADC was borrowed from the RAF, except for the colour, it was red, white and red. When, the SADC suffered many air crashes, they changed the insignia to one reflecting the Lo Pan (a geomancer's compass for checking Feng Shui).

.....you really are scraping the bottom of your muck barrel, and it only further demonstrates your complete obsession with anything Singaporean, to have investigated this latest episode of mud slinging, so extensively.
You are one sick dude...go get some professional psychotherapy, before it consumes you completely.

Pillow and Kaptin M,
I think the ones who should go for professional psychotheraphy are both of you. Maybe, you both shouldn't be anywhere closer to the cockpit! Gong Xi Fa Cai, maybe you should check your Feng Shui, bad chi blowing into your house!

Well folks,
I've checked with my nine goldfish and they agree with me; we think this one's ran its course, and doesn't seem to be heading anywhere... other than pointless abuse, that is. As it says at the bottom of the page...
As these are anonymous forums the origins of the contributions may be opposite to what may be apparent. In fact the press may use it, or the unscrupulous, to elicit certain reactions.
If you want to discuss the uses and potential applications of Feng Shui in business then go ahead, but if you wish to insult each other then do it by e-mail or elsewhere. Please.
Happy Chinese New Year. No padlock just yet....

Just been to a Feng Shui master . You are right . There is a very bad Chi flowing through . It originates from the North East corner of the pacific . The geomancer calls it VAL . Its an evil wind that masquarades as a divine wind . Thats why lots of people got fooled .
You're trying to be just a little too clever Pillow. Sick Squid has given the warning and kept it light hearted and humorous - accept it and the guidance on what is policy elswhere on this forum. Attack the argument and not the writer.PPRuNe Towers

Feng shui is only about making pleasant suroundings. If the suroundings are pleasant youll think clearly with a more positive attitude and so make wiser decisions. Thats why adherants to this feng shui thing reckon youll create wealth and better "luck" with it.
Chi and sha chi and all that other nonsense is just another Chinese superstition and a popular pseudo-science among the Unwashed.

If everyone would calm down here for a moment, there is actually an important topic here that should be discussed.
Aviation relies on facts. Aircraft fly not because some god waves a wand or someone wishes really hard, but because the laws of physics allow it to.
Keep religion/superstition and politics well away from aviation. Mix them together and people tend to get killed.

I dunno titan. In feng shui its considered bad luck to have a spiral staircase in the middle of a room. When I was with SQ I flew 747-200s (which have a large spiral staircase in the middle of FC). Thought the whole thing was bullsh*t until one day in DXB I tripped and fell @rse over down the staircase (taking out the FE with me on the way down) and ended up as a mangled heap on the floor!

That's "re-iterate", not "illiterate" you "degenerate" ... ( 
sorry, just kidding on the last bit).
You couldn't have Feng Shui in a aircraft even if you tried - straight lines everywhere! Just imagine a weavy aisle - wouldn't need in-flight turbulence to make the pax look like they've had a few too many.

Gentlemen
I just invested in a book on feng shui and spent last 2 days digesting it . I came to a conclusion Lee , who claim to be a 'Singaporean chinese ' doesnt know a thing about Feng Shui .
Feng shui is about location of a building relative to its natural surrounding and its layout on the inside . This is to maximise harmony for its occupants .
The author says a lot of it is commonsense . Eg a house next to a main street would hardly bring peace of mind and harmony to its occupants .
Similarly , a house should always face south . Reason , winter in China , sun is from the south and cold wind from the north .
So it looks like this thread is another one of those boring misinformation .
Btw , lee , you should read more into this feng shui thing . It is quite interesting . You should be able to get a copy in SEA or LAX
