Been away 4 a while

For all aspiring telecoms Engineers/Technicians, Riggers and Practicing Professionals in the field. . .

How can one build his career?

Anyone with info on IEEE certifications that could be valuable in this field?

How about Project Management Certs?

I have been in and out of town this week. Just got back. (Havent been online)

Did any meeting hold OR do we need to reschedule?

Thats true, when are we going to have another meeting in Abuja?

Its time to start looking towards a date, venue and time.

Any proposed dates from anyone?

NO!

This thread shouldnt sink downwards.

Our aspirations wont just sink like that!

Who has news or info?

I hear states used to have 2 slots in NCAT Zaria before.

What happened to that state-based sponsorship?

Whao!

Whats my own state doing to empower the youth?

They can at least sponsor 5 cadets.

Bayelsa, tumbs up!

Okay!
Maybe His version of the song "Change The World" in Hausa" but in Hausa

I'd like to see it

1. Play a Guiter
2. Sing me a song
3. Dance
4. Make me laugh

U are welcome Superboi

I'll find out more from my friend who got selected.

He had a
PPL from RAND flying school or so (in SA sha).

Things get much easier with at least a PPL (Fixed Wings or HPPL for the better, thats for interested RotorHeads)

I hear the Ilorin International College of Aviation have done their seletion.
For now I think they basically took guys with PPLs or CPLs already.

They needed cadets for them to train and build a team of Instructors for the new school. I hear their physical structures are coming up on the site.

They are to send some of the guys to a school in dubai to complete their training (They affiliated with the Flying school in Dubai).

Keep it up Lafem.
I feel You on the Time and Human Resourses constraint

depends on the User Area (Work Area) and the product.

WACOM products are like the best.

WACOM might be very hard to find in Nig and they are expensive (See Amazon)

I bought mine from buyright with a work area of 8x6" for about N12,500. It was a chinese product. Dont buy it if u see it on their site or in the shop (TAB08 Graphics Tablet see http://www.buyright.biz/categorylanding/c112). It has issues.

Try GENIUS product. Available in PC OUTLET, at the Palms, Lekki or their Adetokumbo Ademola branch, VI. Check their website

See websites for more on prices.

That will be good (I mean the Arik Air idea).

Pls keep us informed.

AS FOR BRISTOW APPLICANTS HAVING THEIR APTITUDE TEST TODAY. . .

ALL THE BEST, MAKE US PROUD

Hmmn! I'll check that out.

[size=13pt]Any info on schools in Ukraine?[/size]

I've been away for a while.

@Dedax
You are welcome sir. Your contributions would be appreciated

@IVY4U

mail me on whamatix@yahoo.com and I'll give U a prep guide for bristow. I did it last year

Nice one superboi!

There's a similar article on the dearth of Aviators on This Day, 28th Jully. It just makes it a more lucrative job but probably more demanding (flying hours)

@Superboi
I reached the final Stage. I didnt reapply. They haven't even sent those that made it through for training yet. Bristow is playing with pples time and efforts. Its easier to scale tru with at least a PPL (fixed wings, OR better still, HPPL). It was almost like they just wanted to see how far those without training would go in the process.

Or here,

hey Gamine!

Sure, he was.

I believe we are getting somewhere in the quest for focus.

We'd like to have more people on board (Abuja).

Animators, Graphic Artists, Video Editing folks, Script writers, etc

Just drop a line here if you are interested.

Yep! It needed to breath again more than ever

Bristow Applicants, check tru this old thread

https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-45285.0.html

About NCATs PPL course, the quoted price on their website is an old one. Its not been updated. Their price now is like 2.5M but you can pay in installments.

I was there three days back. That place really needs serious funding.

We are with you on that frequency '77.

That will be a great alternative to the usual SA options to aspiring RotorHeads.

Finally, a group of four of us in Abuja got to schedule a meeting and it worked out.

This is a calling out to other interested graphics people (Both Professional and aspiring)

Drop a line here. lets hook up.

@shushu

Nice to have U on the thread
When did U apply for Bristow?
I applied around July 2007 and I didnt hear from them till Dec 31st, 2007.
Just keep praying.

I went tru all the Bristow stages, so for anyone who needs tips, reach me on whamatix@yahoo.com. I can give you detailed advice.

Did you apply for Virgin?

They use cutout animation but their's is very impressive work.

toonboom, Flipbook and Anime Studio are good for that.
