Alright, the whole day went off.. *fast forward* and at about 6+, we went to the Singapore Flyer. Actually, I remember that there's this flight simulator simulating a Boeing 737. Therefore, I wanted to have a check. Although hearing that the price was $155 for 30 minutes, I managed to see this Christmas student offer of $65 for 15 minutes! After a little bit of hesitation, I decided to try it.
Waited till about 7.30pm and my flight, PVT 176580 (I don't know why is the flight number so long =.=) takes off!
Do you see my name?!?! :p
Unfortunately, there was a small delay as the pilot-in-command has to visit the toilet, haha!
Pilot Daniel Tay inside the cockpit. I'll be inside a real one next time. :)
Smile! Group photo time!
This is how the cockpit looks like! It's EXACTLY the same as a 737-800 cockpit, which happens to be my most-flown plane in Flight Sim!
These are the instruments I read. Including PFD and such.. :D
Throttle panel! Includes speed brakes, throttles, engine start switches and flaps!
This might very well be my seat next time, in a real airplane!
This is the overhead panel. Now I know why pilots have height restrictions and your hands need to be long enough. I had to stretch my whole hand!
This is my PM, Pilot Monitoring while I am PF, the Pilot Flying. :)
This receptionist (shall I call him that? LOL) was a pilot at the Air Force. Had a good talk with him about PPL to CPl to ATPL frozen and unfrozen. It's a loooooong road!
I also bought myself a Boeing 777-300ER model back. it's totally nice! I'm gonna love it so much. Till then, ciaos! Tomorrow's gonna be a long day again!
