Ahdee in France Part 2
Oh... i also forgot to mention that i went to the Airbus 380 Production factory tour in Toulouse. Hmmm my boss arranged for us to go there to take a look at the Airbus 380. Man it is really big.... Of course i dun have pictures of it, cos cameras are not allowed there... but there is always google...
Haha this one is taken from the Singapore Airline website. I heard from the manufacturers that SIA was the first to get the A380 and then there are like 10 A380 planes in the SIA fleet now.. Coolz right? If i am not wrong, they have the most numbers of A380 for now. But going to be overtaken, if i am not wrong by emirates. SIA only ordered 19 A380.
Coolz right? We went in to a fully furnished cabin of A380 and some computer room where we saw actual footage of the first A380's test flight i think in 2005. But too bad didnt get chance to buy anything cos when we finish the tour, the gift shop closed le... if not can buy some of the stuff there.
After the trip, we went for the dinner as mentioned in the previous post... i was a bit shocked by the number of fishes served... and i am not sure if that was the case of my stomach not used to eating so much stuff that i suffered alot on the next day.
The most exciting thing that i looked forward to was the Site Visit to 3 different sites in france. We did an analysis of the sites beforehand and headed out to see if our analysis were correct. The sites has been there for a few years already, so we were split into 3 grps and each doing one project. Then we drove to the sites to take a look at what we analyzed and see if our assumptions are correct.
The view is damn nice, but the route is super far and bumpy. I had my first car sickness thingy lor. We travelled a total of 600km and we spent abt 10 hours in the car (of course we walked around the sites in between but most of the time we were in the car) But u guys can imagine la, the sites are located at high attitude and then lots of winding and small paths to go... so i almost died from car sickness... had a severe tummyache from dunno what.. and worse... No Toilet >.<
This is one of the pictures i have taken from the top. We were abt 900m or higher? Not quite sure... But it was quite windy... And as you can see the terrain is rather complicated, so i am really impressed by my colleagues who have been working for some time that they can "predict" what will happen to the sites when we have terrains like this. I guess for me i still need alot more experience before i get as good as them. I am motivated to learn alot more from them sia. But the things they know is alot... and the things i know... lol... pretty much basic...
So Jiayou ba ahdee!!!!
Update: Less than 20 days to be back in Singapore!!!!
