A story, behind it all !!


My blog is to share, follow and inspire few fliers, who aspires to become a Pilot.



It all started, when i was just 7 months old. Yes, you heard it right. I was pointing at the skies, most of the times, as i was enthralled by the glorious sky! Stunning faces  did the elders run, as i was madly pointing at the skies all the time. I was fascinated to just planes, more than any toy. I still hold a Boeing 747-400 *(Air India) (die cast metal) and sleep, holding with it. 

It was quite interesting to know that ,my mom was selected as an Air Hostess. Now came the actions!! 

As i finished my inter-schooling *(10+2) I did my Class 2 and Class 1 medical exams and cleared it. The main entry level. Then had decided to go to Coastal Pacific Aviation, which is in Vancouver, BC, Canada. Cleared the prerequisites, with an application and was ready to fly within a week. Then alone came an air pocket in my flight path. My relatives and few people, forced my parents not to send, stating that he would end up being jobless in that industry. I couldn't go against them as my sister and relatives black poisoned my parents. 
- *(Well, may be it was for a good luck, in the future)! 

Well, I got into Mechanical Engineering and now it's being 2 years since i joined. Now, a lucky star just hit ME!! Engineering is a 4 year degree plan. Now being my entry level to the third year, am just quitting my engineering, to get into my real life, what i wanted to be. A Pilot !! 

Am now done with my Transport Canada Medical Exam. As of now, I did wait for the Medical certificate for almost 4 months. An air pocket again: Certificate never arrived. It was lost in the postal department, in my country for sure. Am a person who will achieve whatever I wish to. I got it safely posted to my home again which is not an easy task to do so. But I did. So I did take the IELTS exam too, for which my band score was 7. So now, am about to apply for a Visa which is said, is not easy to get a visa for Pilot training in Canada and the USA. Of lately through factual considerations, Canada and US visas are getting rejected often for Pilot training. Just keeping my fingers crossed. Am sure, I will get it. After which, i can fly to Canada, to reach my goal of flying! 

Well, I'll keep you guys posted on this. I just wanted to share this information to all the aspirants, who are bound to get air pockets, at times. 

A few aspiring and motivating words from you all, will help me understand, that you all are with ME! 

Happy Flying!
