Airbus Revolution

Since the inception of Airbus in 1980s, it has been a strong manufacturer in passenger aircraft. Airbus once again has lead Boeing apart of having to report having more orders, the giant manufacturer also re-voluted its A320's power plant. Airbus has improved its A320 fleet by introducing a re-engine "New Engine Option" designed by P&W (PW1100G) or CFM (Leap X) to further improve the advanced aircraft fuel efficiency by another 15%.

The new variant also comes with a new "sharklet" winglet. The efficiency improvements translate into a savings up to 3,600 tonnes of CO2 annually plus a double-digit reduction in NOx emissions, reduced engine noise, lower operating costs and up to 500 nm. (950 km.) more range or two tonnes more payload, according to the company's president, Tom Enders. It also able to compete with Bombardier CSeries. The re-engine plane has 95% commodity to standard A320 variant. It's expected to make its delivery from Spring 2016.

CNY Celebration

Thank God for the blessing for last year & this year. My celebration was a blast before day 1.

Boarding AA's A320-300 while maintenance crew checkup for departure after refueling.

I just love having people together for food. Love the noise. Love the ang pau of course. As I growing up, I'm kinda getting involved in the conversation with the adults & not in between kids & adults anymore apart from me thinking the day I'm distributing the ang pau (wow... Joking).

Well, the fact is that Facebook is a broader platform, which explains why many including me spending less time blogging. Anyway, I'll still spend time filling info & spices whenever I can. Now on I'll also put up some events happening around. So, stay tuned. Till then, Happy CNY, everyone & Happy holiday!

Rain

It has been more than 24 hours now & it's still raining lightly. The sky is crying longer than usual. Mist cloaks the skyscrappers that normally stand magistically and lingers at places we don't usually see any clouds. The raindrops that I miss to catch shows how much I missed u. I just love cold weather.
