PPL!! Pls try to stay away from MAS airline..

Personal Experience:

Took a flight from Penang to SG on New Year's Day, and the plane had and engine failure in mid-air!!

First time in my life I felt real panic during flight..

The take off was rather uneventful, thank goodness for that! ( imagine the engine died during take off, omg, the plane is sure to crash laa!!)

It was during mid-air when the captain announced that the main engine was shut down and the plane was running on secondary engine and thus had to make an emergency landing in KLIA.. Landing was rather jerky, but safe nonetheless.. And we had to land in a totally unoccupied place where there was no other planes and passengers in sight, except for a whole row of emergency land vehicles who were waiting for us already...

Got stuck in the plane for half an hour while they checked on the engine.. when we were allowed to leave, we could still see the plane engine parts sticking out from the hatch and the smart-looking-people-who-suppose-to-be-the-engineers-i-think talking into walkie talkies still...

And the most ridiculous part of the whole event was the air stewardness who announced the standard landing welcoming speech!! ( Thank you for travelling with...... we hope you had a pleasent journey..... hope to see you again..) HELLO!? You had an engine failure during a one hour flight!! ".... see you again"!?

Anyway, from the way the captain spoke over the PA system, we could tell that he's stressed up.. LOL... I mean, at least he had the IQ to apologise to us about the incident (unlike the airstewardess, are they all suppose to be "flower vase" and thus brainless?).. and he even said "... sorry for the inconvenience caused.... thank you for your co-operation, and uh, bye-bye *hangs up*)...

sigh...

The plane was a boeing 737.. I was told its an outdated plane?
