Its not like , I have never been on a flight before but this was the incidence which happened after I done my Pre Flying Training and was going from Kochi to Delhi by Air India AI- 047 . As I boarded the plane , I started realizing that the stuff I studied about planes like Lift , Drag , aerofoils , aeroengines in last 5 weeks was
going to be real soon. I could see the different colored lights on the runway .
It was funny telling the guy sitting beside me that , Blue lights are traffic lights , White r runway lights , red r end of runway lights and green r threshold lights.
Beside this I was able to judge the movements of Pilot , wht he was doing and wht next he gonna do :) .It was like sitting next to ur friend in car and knowing all his actions.
It was scary when plane was going to take-off . I knew how actually plane flies and what r the various requirements for flying. My mind suddenly goes toward the problems that can occur like stalling and engine failures . Being a person of Defence forces , I should not say this : "but I was little scared" ;). After a few moments when plane reached a good height , everything was normal ;)
It was a great experience and I m feeling lucky that I m gonna be a part of defence aviation soon and going to "FLY HIGH".
