JOINING SIA TO START A NEW CHAPTER

STARTING A NEW CHAPTER OF MY LIFE

3 months after ROD, I applied for a aviation job with Singapore Airlines.

There were 3 posts available, cadet pilot, cadet flight engineer and cadet flight navigator.

I was successful in all 3 posts. Most likely is due to my NCC(Air) background couple with my
naval officer experience especially in navigation.

To be accepted as cadet pilot, I need the Singapore Air Force approval. I was not able to get
that approval and was left with the choice of being a Navigator or Flight Engineer.

I decided on being a Flight Navigator and I join SIA in December 1976.

That starts a new chapter of my life. It is to be a very long chapter.

I will dedicate my time to write my beautiful experience after my retirement.
