This pilot deserves all the accolades he can get ! ...PILOT LANDS FAULTY PLANE WITHOUT FRONT WHEELS MYANMAR AIRLINES

-


It is very rare for a pilot to successfully land a plane without front wheels. The story of a pilot in Myanmar has been flying around and he’s being applauded and hailed as a hero for landing a plane without front wheels.

He landed the plane on Sunday with just the rear wheels after the passenger plane’s landing gear failed.

Myanmar Airlines Flight 103 was traveling to Mandalay from Yangon when the pilot became aware of the problem.
In a statement, the airline said pilot Captain Myat Moe Aung “followed emergency procedures and did the fuel burn out to reduce the landing weight,” before bringing the jet down onto its rear wheels, lowering the nose carefully onto the runway on which it skidded for about 25 seconds before stopping.

The airline also confirmed there were no casualties.

Following the incident, emergency vehicles surrounded the plane as it rested on its nose on the tarmac.

“The pilot did a great job,” Win Khant, Myanmar’s transport minister, told Reuters.

Why is the newly wedded man called GROOM and the woman called BRIDE? A friend of mine got tired of his WIFE just about six months after wedding. He complained bitterly to me about her and told me that he has concluded to break up with her; he went on to say that he was sure that he made a mistake. I did not respond immediately because I knew I must tell him the right thing, so I went home. And that is what birth this message. Many MEN have broken up with their WIVES because they end up not being the WIFE that they have dreamt of. But they have forgotten that on their wedding day was when the man was commissioned for the new task. Nobody calls the woman WIFE on her wedding day but BRIDE, because it is the man that will GROOM his BRIDE to become the WIFE. That is why the man is called ‘BRIDEGROOM or GROOM’ and the word grooming has to do with PATIENTLY NURTURING, TEACHING, TENDING and HELPING someone to become what he or she should be. It is therefore believed that a MAN that takes

Chronicles of an Adventurous Randy Corper

I've experienced peace the last few months of my life, it could easily be counted as the best I've had so far, and I totally achieved this without being in a relationship. I used to believe I needed to be in a relationship to have a happy life, until I read this book, THE RULES OF LOVE by Richard Templar, and Rule 3 in the book opened my eyes. It was like the third rule was the only thing I got off the book. To further help my decision of not dating, I ran into Roselyn, a tall dark shiny angel that helped me out at the supermarket one evening I went searching Nutella Chocolate spread, something I ate at my friend's place and went in search of it at every supermarket in town but couldn’t find it. I kept calling it cocoa butter which confused the attendants to think I was looking for some sort of body cream, I shouted  ‘I don’t even use body cream..at the last supermarket out of frustration, when Roselyn who was paying for what she just bought turned around to look at me whi
