FLYING IN THE SKIES - no longer just a dream.

To those interested in flying, here are some good news for you! AMS students do indeed get the opportunities to experience both real and simulated flights! 


Flight Experience Singapore

Experience the full joy of flying. Start with a flight around your local airport, including take-off and landing. Fly circuits to sharpen your skills or navigate your way to a nearby regional airport. Early last year, all the Year 1s got the chance to sit in the cockpit of a jet aircraft simulator. We got to apply concepts like theories of flights and make use of all the navigational aids, just like a real pilot!

Sounds cool? There's more!


Light Aircraft Flight Experience

Under the module Principles of Aeronautical Science, our students were given a rare opportunity to experience real-life flying in a light aircraft at Nusajaya Flight Park at Johor Bahru. Sitting in the captain's seat, we got the chance to control the aircraft for a huge part of the flight.

Through all these, students could apply classroom concepts into the real world of flying. We were able to relate the concepts into something real, which makes it much easier when studying for the module's tests & exams!
