I'm flying, so where's my parachute?

On Saturday, July 11, 2009, I will realise a dream: I will fly an aircraft.

My ambition, when I was schooling was to be a pilot. But a colour-blindness test smashed this dream back then. Damn my grandfather who is also colour-blind, who could have passed on the genes.

Never mind the Boeing 747 and Boeing 777 or the Airbus A330 and Airbus A340 or even the Airbus A380, think I will have to be content with a two-seater, albeit a qualified and licensed pilot doing the actual flying.

When I posted this on my Facebook profile, I received numerous people giving positive comments, and some cheeky ones as well.

The cheeky one came from Hayati, who lives in Taman Tun who said if she should avoid the flight path I am taking.

To which I replied: 'I'll fly over Taman Tun, near the mosque area where you live!'

And before Missy starts to feel left out, for good measure, I'll fly over Gasing Petaling Jaya area as well.

Then of course, I'll fly over Cheras and hope that my princess living in the area can spot me.

Saturday can't come soon enough, I am soooooooooo excited!

But I was told to bring a parachute, any idea where to buy one? Guess, I'll bring my golf umbrella, which should be big enough, I should hope. :-)
