came to the realization today when i had some personal time with my baby.... of course its my work baby.... the s211.... that i'm slowly falling in love again with flying....

its really something quite amazing when i had some personal time with the aircraft.... resting nicely in the hanger as it gets a nice layer of TRC (some sticky rubber) on its undercarriage struts. (think legs of aircraft) then as i got to do my external checks on the aircraft... things somehow became to slowly come back to me.... the majesty of it all. slowly walking around the aircraft.... knowing that this baby..... will bring you back to where you once were... in the sky.... among the clouds above all....

as i was slowly taking my time, walking around the aircraft and exploring her.... brushing my hands across the panels... giving her TLC. its really very soothing.... it may sound weird to you.... but its the same as the feeling you get when you are doing something thats dear to you. may it be blogging... tending to your car, loving your pet...

well perhaps i guess i have the mindset that i'd give the TLC to watever / whoever i give my heart to... its like giving the love and care you would give to a loved one.... cause when i'm with her, my life rests on her wings and her wings rest on my life. its like a circle of life established during that 1hour 10mins with her. have to slowly build the trust between her and myself. that we'd have nothing to hide from each other. a somehow untold love for each other. tats how i grew to love flying.

ha...... then that fateful sunday evening (blogging this on a saturday... 6 days later) i also saw the maintenance crew giving their TLC to her as they made sure she was up and running good. it really was something special... something that on a working day i'd never see.....

may my 108 flights on her be a memorable one before i come back home...

good day
