Been some time...

Guys and girls out there, thanks for supporting my blog and being my friends.
Act as an aviation lover, I love to share what I know about the aviation and giving the best advice from what I know and what I have experienced to cut short your way in searching, hunting and even walking to some unnecessary roads especially you're the only one in your friends' group who dreams to be a pilot during starting time.
(Well, I am. Hence, I understand that feeling and wish to help out my best! Of cause, you will still need to play your role to achieve it!)

******* Attention *******
For those who wish to add me up , please specific by sending a message to my wall post/inbox/PM my facebook. So that I can group you up as my friend.
1. The chatbox in my blog is contaminated with those *erm hurm*

Cabin Crew /Flight Attendant /Stewardess//steward /Cabin Attendant

I have come across with people asking me about "HOW TO BE A STEWARDESS".

First of all,
guys and girls,
Please don't get confused with the terminology.
As per the title of this post,

"Cabin Crew"
"Flight attendant"
"stewardess/stewards"
"Cabin Attendant"
all bring the same meaning of it.

In this post, I will use Flight Attendant then.
Requirement for Flight Attendant ain't that high.

In Malaysia, common requirements will be at least:
1. Credit in SPM (having a good score of cause will be much better)
2. Height at least 158cm
3. Eyesight : Power not too high. Contact lenses are acceptable
4. Knowing more language will be an advantage
5. BMI (height and weight) must be in normal range
6. Normally maximum age for fresh applicant is 24 years old
7. Without visible mark/tattoo
For overseas, common requirements are slightly higher with additional of: 
8. at least having A-Level certificate (STPM/Diploma/Foundation...)
9. highest touch with your finger is 212cm
10. No birth mark/tattoo

2 ways to be a flight attendant:

1. Go through some private training center.
 You pay for the training, no secure job,they will do their best in arranging you for the airlines interview after training completed.
2. Apply through airlines (website/walk in interview).
You will be trained by airlines after you have successfully make through a few stages and competition. Job is secured. Fully sponsored by the airlines.



How much a flight attendant can earn per month?
It varies. From 3000MYR to 10,000MYR. It depends on airlines, currency, sector allowance, night stop and etc.

Common airlines which apply by Malaysian to be a flight attendant:
1. Malaysia Airlines
2. Firefly
3. Maswings
4. AirAsia
5. Eithad
6. Qatar
7. Emirates
8. Singapore Airlines
9. Cathay Pacific
10. Korea Airlines
Not to forget, the up coming...
11. Malindo (soon to start operating in mid year of 2013)

If you're hoping to be a sponsored flight attendant and keen to be...
follow the steps below:
Open a "GOOGLE/YAHOO/SAFARI" search with "XXXX (Airlines names)" --> check under "career(s)"

Don't get confused with the terminology used by different countries.
All the Best!

Blog will be alive soon.

It has been sometime that this blog isn't been updated at all.
Due to another personal blog is set up here // http://www.worldofxiuyugeok.blogspot.com
(*Only about aviation post will be in English. Other personal posts will be in other language)

Seeing the people one by one reading it with their dream of becoming a pilot, I will get this blog alive once again when I get back.

Lately has been real busy for it.

See you guys again. ;)

this is actually the blog continuos of xiuyu88.blogspot.com :)

Yesterday I came across to a conversation before I departing back to my hometown.
"Where's the blog which is pink background? I was your reader before joining MFA"
"o.O Mmm.. I see. Thanks."

another conversation of...
"Didn't you know her? Especially her blog. Famous kut(Bahasa Malaysia)~ We're friend from there."

Further conversation
"I accidentally found your found online when i was searching for my stuffs. I confirm it's you. I'm reading it half way. Now got to fly. Will continue the post later on"

From there..., I've decided to shut down(more on setting it as my personal blog dairy) the xiuyu88.blogspot.com
Sorry. My honesty and direct in speaking, somehow I'm afraid it will bring me disaster in the training life and offense too many people indirectly. That's made up the final decision to stop that blog be published publicly.

When I checked back, the gauge still can track out hundreds people out there clicking my ex-blog daily. If you had the fate, here will the blog.

I didn't notice they're so many people reading it actually.

Guess my previous blog has made me be "slight famous" among those pilot wannabe until they are in the flying academy. Well, I have set it to private blog due to many private(my dairy) posts were in. This blog will be the continue blog of the www.xiuyu88.blogspot.com that any of you used to be reading it. It will still be the same. Noooooo worries~ ;)

Lets have the next NTSB report for the cause of accident to increase the situation awareness :

NTSB Identification: ATL06FA030.
The docket is stored in the Docket Management System (DMS). Please contact Records Management Division
Accident occurred Sunday, January 01, 2006 in Peachtree City, GA
Probable Cause Approval Date: 4/25/2007
Aircraft: Piper PA-28-180, registration: N2169T
Injuries: 1 Fatal.

The pilot requested the localizer 10-approach to the Macon Downtown Airport, Macon, Georgia (MAC). The pilot was radar vectored to intercept the localizer, and cleared for the localizer 10-approach. Shortly thereafter, the pilot advised approach control that he had over flown the localizer. The approach control specialist issued vectors back to the localizer, and he was cleared for another localizer 10-approach. The pilot reported to approach control that he was having trouble staying on the localizer, and requested to go to the Middle Georgia Airport, Macon, Georgia (MCN). He was subsequently cleared for the ILS runway 5-approach to MCN. The MCN tower advised approach control that the pilot had panicked during his approach, and went missed approach. The pilot contacted the MCN tower, reported that he had lost the localizer, and requested if he could be taken around to do the approach again. He was issued radar vectors back to the ILS runway 5-approach, and about one-half mile from the approach, the pilot requested to come around for another approach after drifting off course. The pilot made two more attempts to land at MCN before being radar vectored to the Peachtree City Airport-Falcon (FFC) localizer 31-approach. During the approach into FFC, radar contact was lost with the airplane. The airplane had collided with trees about 1 mile from the approach end of runway 31. Postcrash examination of the aircraft structure, flight controls, systems, engine, and propeller showed no anomalies. The pilot received his instrument rating less than 6 months before the accident, and had accumulated 17.1 total hours of actual instrument flight time. He had 133 hours of simulated instrument flight hours.

The National Transportation Safety Board determines the probable cause(s) of this accident as follows:

The pilot's failure to maintain sufficient altitude while performing an instrument approach in instrument meteorological conditions, which resulted in an in-flight collision with trees and terrain.
