the turbofan engines are still more reliable right?
anyway, i thought so
the only things i know are the 2-stroke and the 4-strokeOriginally posted by kopiosatu:servicing a helicopter will give me better job prospects out there.
the commercial world don't use jet engines.
the engines used on the commercial aircraft are turbofan.
but there are companies who use choppers to ferry their personnel which are all turboshaft engines.
good thing i went to the choppers

yeah, things will fit in naturally with enough training.Originally posted by the Bear:goodnight kopi

I have seen people who just sight-read and play a not-so-easy piece easily. I guess it is talent and lots of practice.

that's true
what really amazes me is the way some people like Clapton just joins in to a tune he's barely heard... and plays it like he's been playing that tune all his life!
that is.. wow!!Originally posted by SnowFlag:yeah, things will fit in naturally with enough training.

turbofan? no no its not about reliability, its about usage.Originally posted by the Bear:the turbofan engines are still more reliable right?

fighter jets use turbojet.
turbofan is a combination of turbojet and turboprop (propellor aircraft)
a turboprop gives a small acceleration to a large mass of air
a turbojet gives a large acceleration to a small mass of air
i don't know how a turbofan works
can't remember what my instructor told me... went to my current base and learnt turboshaft all the way.
at least i know how a gas turbine engine works (generic aircraft engine) -
well, good enough
you'll keep learning as long as you work for the RSAF

Hip hip HOORAY!
/me dances around the room like a mad woman
Hahahaha you know like, finally I never have to play those three pieces anymore. I can throw away that book for all I want!
The examiner was a ... I think he's British. But he was a fat and jolly-looking old man, extremely pleasant and approachable. I like him alot! Not scary at all.
My scales were fine. I was lucky he asked me to play chromatic scales with just one hand instead of both. I suck at both and before the exam I was so sure I'd die halfway.
The pieces were alright too I guess. I made a few mistakes, but I managed to carry on most of the time, except for once I had to repeat the bar again.
Sight-reading was baaaad. I had to ask him "Can I start over again?" and in the end I played in broken bits and pieces. I'll probably fail that section but heck.
Aural was quite alright, but I got stuck for a moment because I couldn't find the right adjectives to describe the piece.
IT'S OVER! IT'S OVER! IT'S OVER!!!!! -

I went shopping for my dress just now! My phone was low on batt so I couldn't message too much in case it dies halfway!
I found my dress and everything, but now I still need to settle my hair and FIND A PAIR OF SHOES. I couldn't find a nice pair. 
Tomorrow will be more shopping.. I'm so sick of shopping. -
Hmm I'll make Bear treat me to 20 bowls of dessert, then I'll share with all of you!!!Originally posted by kopiosatu:u treat her, then she has the money to treat the rest of us!
