elloello.

i shall share some of my experiences as an Aeromodeller with you guys. before i start, let's talk a little about my 'history'. unlike many of the sec1s and sec2s this year, i did not join NCC because of Aeromodelling, or anything close to that. the thing is, when i was sec1, i don't think there was Aeromodelling. even if there was, many of us didn't know of its existence. so if you're talking about interest, mine may not be as much as some of yours.

Well, there is actually 2 kinds of flying in Aeromodelling(Line-Control(LC) & Radio-Control(RC)). The most recent example would be the RC kites 4 of the sec3s have been learning to fly at HQ NCC. I'm not talking about a real kite(the one with the string and all), RC kite is like a.......flat plane? hahaha. Since it's Radio-Controlled, there's a transmitter which the pilot would hold, and a receiver attached to the plane. From experience, it can fly freaking far. Well to fly it, we actually had to go through this simulator training first. Well the simulator itself is fun enough-you can do a lot of retarded things with it while the sirs aren't looking(hehe). Once we were ready, we flew the kites we built ourselves^^ My first time flying was reallyreally kool corz i succeeded in flying. And Sir Alvin was like, complaining bout how we have good instructors and how he didn't xDxD But then again, that was just beginner's luck. After that, it was like a crashing spree. This one broken, that one need fixing. The fixing part is freaking troublesome, but worth it. Now, i'm glad to say i'm able to keep it in the air most of the time^^ Like your USM has said, it's really something you will be proud of. It's like, after all your hard work, you can finally fly it.

Then again, i have only talked about keeping the kite in the air. I haven't even started on the stunts/formations you can do with it. On this Sunday(o9August2oo9), 4 of the sec3s including myself, would be performing RC kite flying at Anchorvale Community Club, with some of the Sirs from HQ NCC. i heard it's somewhere near Sengkang(?) Probably and hopefully, we would have learnt to do stunts properly by then. Well, if possible, come down to support us, and at the same time, find out what RC flying is like^^

For those worrying about whether you can do it, you shouldn't. Learning how to fly isn't really about like, being serious, setting a target, and working towards it. It's more of having fun and being serious at the same time. Even if your kite is crashing all over, u can still enjoy and laugh about it. To me, the learning process is the most fun part. 'Although the end always seems more attractive, sometimes, it's more about how you get to the end.' -by mr jiajun(me).

And now, moving on to how we choose cadets to go for the Aeromodelling Instructors' Course(AIC). Well basically, the criteria consists of 2 things- your commitment to NCC, and your interest in Aeromodelling. Then again, you can't expect yourself to be chosen if you turn up for trainings once every few months.

I seriously hope this post has, even by just a little bit, inspired some of you guys.
