The Embraer E-170 [ Random FSX Shots ] Location : Luxor [HELX] Egypt

Ladies and gentleman , here is a quik peek into what I am flying these days ( amongst others ) . The baby in the photo-op here is an Embraer E-170 in Royal Jordanian and Egypt Air liveries at Luxor International Airport (HELX ) . The Egypt Air version is the one that was flown in by me from Cairo as a part of the Around The World in 80 flights World Tour . This is the first post of the day depicting the true essence of this blog. Rest assured much more is to follow :)

Goodbye :(

Well , as a second post the tone is a little too grim but it is indeed appropriate . Today is the day after of Michael Jackson passing away after a cardiac arrest . With the passing of years I had long moved away from the typical pop music . But those childhood years were indeed spent listening to Bad, Beat it and Give in it to me . Those tracks can still stop me dead in my tracks even if these days I barely listen to sonthing other then Trance and Prog . Those tracks drip nostalgia and drag you back to those sunny juvenile afternoons still ensconced in the security of your home in the care of your parents , times when nothing could go wrong . Another idol of such a time is gone :( Goodbye MJ ,RIP wherever you are . Seldom has our heart felt so heavy at the loss of a person who in the remotest way was not related to our lives , or was it ... ?


Le Roi Est Mort , Vive Le Roi.

To quote Wikipedia ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page ) a Blog can be defined as follows :

A blog (a contraction of the term "weblog")[1] is a type of website, usually maintained by an individual with regular entries of commentary, descriptions of events, or other material such as graphics or video. Entries are commonly displayed in reverse-chronological order. "Blog" can also be used as a verb, meaning to maintain or add content to a blog.
Many blogs provide commentary or news on a particular subject; others function as more personal online diaries. A typical blog combines text, images, and links to other blogs, Web pages, and other media related to its topic. The ability for readers to leave comments in an interactive format is an important part of many blogs. Most blogs are primarily textual, although some focus on art (artlog), photographs (photoblog), sketches (sketchblog), videos (vlog), music (MP3 blog), and audio (podcasting). Micro-blogging is another type of blogging, featuring very short posts.
As of December 2007, blog search engine Technorati was tracking more than 112 million blogs.[2

Unquote .

Obviously , I am quite late to join this bandwagon . But I decided to give it a shot nevertheless . I intend to use this space to express my passions for the many things in life that often gives rise to an urge of preserving those moments so that I can one day go back to them for, if not anything else , but just a second look . I expect that the hurdles that I am facing this very moment in getting this started will be soon overcome with the fluidity in thoughts that I expect will be a takeaway from this entire endeavour . It is quite possible that some of you who may read this ( if somebody actually does ) will find this entire passage so far to be quite stiff and fragmented but this is my first post on my first blog ever for crying out loud !! ( lets admit it , I just read the whole thing and I think it is the most horrible first post ever ) .

Amongs the many things that this Blog will focus on , the principal will be my hobby of Flight Simming . It will also talk about things that are bothering me ( or things that are making me happy at that moment :p ) . At the moment of starting this it is a lazy Saturday afternoon here in Bangalore India , the weather outside is dull , GRAY and rainy :( , and if that was not enough , I am at work with 80 % of my Shift still ahead of me . But as to all dark clouds this one does have a Silver lining too . Now you know what this Blog is intended to be . So without much further adieus lets get started and click on to get the first post online .
