    Wives of pilots?

    Stary Yeah, we will be taking over Paris and Zurich when the 300er gets in. Most likely when the 380 finally arrives they will be doing london and sydney. Other 44 destinations should eventually get split among the various new aircraft when they get in too. Meanwhile hope we get more new good...

    Wives of pilots?

    intheknow, I've been a pilot for 3 years and been on the fleet for about a year. It takes approximately 2 1/2 years from the day you start give and take to finish your training. About 2 years after you start you join a fleet where you start flying around to other countries and work as part of...

    Wives of pilots?

    Hi daylight, no, the flooding remains outside the units thanks to the kerb that we have going into the flat and the sloping lift landing. However I've seen pools of stagnent water which screams mosquito breeding ground at the stairwell area. Drainage seems to be the problem here. Ryes...

    Hi Ryes Personally I'm not too bothered by it. Height wise I don't think it's that much shorter(or even if it is shorter) than the concrete walls you are used to. Wrt safety you still have to go over it and not through it to fall off rite? Possibly the only thing there I can think of is...

    Hi rainne Yah, my wife called HDB branch office today. They insist that we turn up with our keys to make sure that it's really the lock that is condemned and not that we recieved the wrong keys. We have to go down again and this time bring a small step ladder to reach the top tiles. Prob...

    Hi rainne Yes u r right in your assumption. Yes HDB does provide u with keys to the gas and water door but it so happens that the door lock is jammed. As such there is no way we can open the door to get to our water main to turn it on. My wife and I didn't exactly check all the tiles but...

    Hi Rainne and takishi, Got my keys and went down yesterday at around 2pm, wasn't raining yet at that time to check for defects. Very windy during the day, direction from the south east (units 134,136). Stupid gas and water door in the corridor is stuck! So can't turn on water to check if...

    Hi takishi, Yes we will be going to the flat on the same day just to do inspection for any defects. No particular "procedures" that we would be following on that day itself...It's not like we are actually moving in yet.
