Yesterday a pilot ask for flight test on 06 a/c(aircraft) due to verbal and recurring snag. After more than 10 times rigging on port engine the snag still persist and need to be checked on flight. Last night me and other technician do an adjustment on flight power control and calibrated worthly before next flight.
Early in the morning we do check the a/c properly and fuel up the a/c to the required quantity. The sortie scheduled at 1000h but delayed to 1100h GMT +8.00 because of technical problem. When the a/c is ready the pilot start up the engine and to be monitored by trade concern. Two engineman, instrument and avionic which is monitored by one person. Both engine light up and chocked out and ready for taxiing. The a/c positioned on Kuching international Airport NORP and do crosswind takeoff. After a few minutes we fly off to the safe area which is save to make an engine perfomance test. At altitude over 1000ft, the first test is by electrical power check and fuel distribution. All check is satisfactory good and no need for any preservation. We proceed to next check, power take-off and short landing. All test is success and no unbalance thrust or loose power.
After half an hour, the pilot select the autopilot system on and all the pitch,yaw, climb and descend operated in good condition. During the autopilot mode, the altitude selector adjusted to 8000ft and the a/c climb at that altitude. The major test is to be checked at this altitude where the engine shut off or airborne relight to be done. Both engine successfully relighted and no problem occured.
After completing all the test the pilot climb to 18,000ft to check the cabin pressurization and only a few pressure leak which is permissible and fly to the steady state level condition. All the aircrew and technician provided with ransum and we enjoy the meal before completing the task.
The last check is the Vmo or acceleration check. The pilot descend on high rate and climb simultaneously on full power. The reading is good and we go back and land to our place.
The result reported by the pilot only the ground idle condition is still unbalance but when advancing and on flight there is no problem occured. The a/c now ready for any task regardless by small problem until repaired by manufacturer..
Thanks for reading...sesaje try taip bahase inggris..komen la sket hehehe...tQ.
Aku rasa bertuah kerana walaupun aku ni belaja tak la tinggi mane mcm korang ada diploma, ijazah dll. tp aku bersyukur dpt pekerjaan yg halal dan didalam satu organisasi yg mantap. Masa mula-mula ditugaskan ke 6skn aku diajar erti hormat, itu adalah pokok kpd semangat kerjasama yg plg penting dlm satu organisasi. Selain latihan yg agak keras kerana bekerja dgn sesuatu yg mempunyai bahan letupan adalah sangat bahaya. Jadi ilmu pengetahuan sgt penting dalam menjamin keselamatan. 
Untuk pengetahuan korang, ini la lambang skuadron aku, 6skn berpangkalan di kuantan. Check ABC, marshalling, launching tu jadi makanan harian aku, kalau tak buat benda tu sume kira tak mcm kerja la. Pagi dh tentu open check A, topup hydraulik, oil, oksigen, nitrogen tu dah memang wajib tiap-tiap hari. Itu kerja biase buat semua tradesman. Aku sebagai Engineman kompom terlibat dengan segala servicing yg berkaitan dengan enjin. Kadang2 elektrikal pun kami buat jugak bergantung pada keadaan. Kami bekerja secara syif, 24hr on 24hr off, so masa on tu memang perit sket ar tapi lama-kelamaan biase je benda tu. Yang paling tak tahan pulak bila ORI (ordinance readiness inspection) memang kelam kabut dibuatnyer hehehe. ORI ni aku takleh nk cerita banyak kat sini. Rahsia kerajaan, sory yek!! Tapi bila ada operasi lagi la kusut, bayangkan la tetibe kena siap dlm setengah jam nk packing baju pastu terbang ke Labuan dan sebagainyer ikut kehendak operasi.
Hehehe korang tengok gigi aku ker?? benda yg putih tu korang jgn salah sangka pulak, tu bukan bom tapi tu kira holder die la sebab tu bole letak kat situ kalau life bomb takde masa nk letak camtu je nak mampos!! Memang bahaya, bom sebesar cuma peha korang dan panjang cuma dua jengkal cukup nak robohkan rumah dua tingkat korang, kalau tak caya pi lah duduk kat Palestin. Bukan setakat bom je yg bahaya tapi masuk kokpit pesawat fighter pun dah bahaya. Pernah jadi kes kat Butterworth dulu kerana over konfiden, sorang LAC maut dan dua lagi cedera parah(pelatih) sampai masuk ICU. Berpunca dari ejection seat yang tersilap 'operate'. Maksud aku ni bangang tapi nak tunjuk terer kat budak baru. So sebab tu la 'Safety First' hehehe. Ingat pesan aku ni kawan2.
