  Hmm, the above mentioned aircraft is one of my favourites, and some indications that it would be scrapped sometime this year, as new IL-96 airliners would be delivered...
  Air Zimbabwe flies two times a week to Singapore (across the wide Indian Ocean on a 767, wow!) and on to Beijing...
  If the two 767s are scrapped this year, we might have a possibility to see a IL-96 in Singapore, but we lose a very good friend, who is flying the skies for 16 years... Anyone else saw this nolstalgic coloured bird before?

  Continuing on, if you did not see my previous threads, I am studying Aerospace Electronics in Singapore Polytechnic now, first year...
  Do you collect a/c models too? I guess its not good to list them here, you can message me though, using the wonderful function found by clicking somewhere, somehow...
  Heehee, turning this thread into self-introduction, my favourites...
  Favourite airline: United Airlines, USA, if you are against SIA, welcome to my club; I don't like my nation's airline...
  Favourite A/C: Not the A380, no way. Boeing 767-200ER, Boeing 747-SR, Boeing 747-100, most significantly the -122, United colours...
  Favourite airline that I have flown: All Nippon Airways, and especially the Boeing 747-SR81, JA8147, which was used in War of the Worlds set starring Tom Cruise (and others...), I have been on it before!
  Favourite pilot: Any. Who flies into a turbulence, or makes CATIII approaches totally blind, I admire them...
  Favourite aviation website: Need say more? Airliners.net
  
  Thats all, more people will flood me... Thanks...

  Wow, hey junior. From DASE too, but guinea pig batch. Compared to DARE, DASE suck a big deal. Lecturers know nuts, unlike from DARE where they get qualified lecturers from the industry. Guess you will start to feel it from year 2 onwards. But i'm out from this godforsaken course.
  
  I guess you must be the most crazy over planes in the entire course like I was back then. No one seem to know anything in my time.
  
  Just a little intro on the crazy stuff I do, plane spotting/photography, aircraft modelling... Used to collect airliner models years back too but kinda lose interest lately.
