Best of all you do not need to be dive certified to cage dive at this location, and departures are from San Diego, California. Vessels are located just minutes from the International airport for ease of travel. Diver
Introducing the latest long range vessels to the Shark Diver fleet servicing Isla Guadalupe in 2007. The MV Islander, MV Horizon, MV Ocean Odyssey and the newest vessel, the Nautilus Explorer based in Mexico.
Isla Rocks
The vessels in the Shark Diver fleet feature a range of accommodations from private air conditioned staterooms offering individual thermostats and washbasins, plus every other diving amenity you and or your groups will need. All vessels have dedicated air system for shark cage operations, service the largest shark cages available and have full time experienced Great White crews. These guys know sharks. The vessels are excellent long range dive platforms for those seeking laid back comfort and style while diving with Great Whites.
Islander
They are primarily designed to cater to privacy seeking individual divers, selected dive groups, corporate groups world wide, professional filmmakers, and larger private parties of divers. If you're looking for comfort-attention to detail, corporate incentive, and or a unique meeting/strategy space these are the vessels for you. With the acquisition of the Nautilus Explorer into the shark diving fleet, the way adventure seekers think of shark diving has just changed again, forever.
Shark Diver has reviewed all the vessels shark cage designs. They feature unique external flotation pods allowing for more space and comfort inside the cages. Plus two unique external observation hatches for divers and film crews who are looking for another angle to film Great White Sharks. In short, one of Shark Divers most important considerations is cage design, and safety. We have ensured you'll have the best cages available to dive with; after all it's where you will be spending most of your time with us.
The shark diving crews look forward to assisting you, the professional or semi-professional, with all your underwater photographic needs. As a prime example of stunning underwater shark shots taken from Isla Guadalupe please spend some time with renound underwater photographer Phil Colla located at www.oceanlight.com or admire Ethan Gordons (Editor of Fathom Magazine) work at www.ethangordon.com. Light Dance
Each vessel accommodates groups of 16+ divers, all group leaders automatically come for free. We are looking forward to providing you and your groups with the holiday of a lifetime, tell the experienced shark dive crews what your needs are and Shark Diver will make it happen for you.
You will appreciate the use of surface supplied air, allowing you to be comfortable and secure during your dives. Our professional and courteous crew will make sure your adventure is a safe and rewarding experience.
Strategy planning, executive team meetings, sales offsites, incentives, and team building are just a few of the uses for the newest vessel to the Shark Diver fleet. The Shark Diver crews can assist you with all your corporate function needs. Shark Diver can produce team shirts and hats with your brand on it, film and produce corporate sales videos and make your next corporate function one that will go down in your company's history. In a world where everyone does the same thing, and companies look to Las Vegas as "a fun meeting place" let Shark Diver provide you with the ultimate tool to set you apart from the competition. Dive experience is not necessary, as always we'll work with your group to make this occasion one to remember. Why do the ordinary this year when the extraordinary is waiting for you in San Diego?

Individual divers and group leaders will be happy to note that we take great pride in taking care of all your divers food needs. The galleys on board are fully equipped for any style of cooking providing divers with a wide range of cuisine.

beach resorts in batangas philippines_2"beach resorts in batangas philippines" Any affordable beach resort in batangas?
It has been 3 years since the last time I set foot in the Philippines, my friends and I are planning for a beach get-away preferably an overnight stay or two as long as the budget is reasonable. We were able to find a few places in Laiya, Batangas, La Luz Beach Resort, it's affordable and close to nature/lots of activities. Unfortunately we have been trying to call them, up until now no answer.
Can anyone help me please? The budget will be 10 thousand pesos for 4 people, over night or two night stay. Sabangan would be a good choice but unfortunately the budget doesn't really suit us.

Outsourcing Advantage - My Social Media Marketing Campaign – Part Three
My Social Media Marketing Campaign – Part Three
By the end of January 2010, my Filipino outsourcers had produced over 40 promotional videos, set up my Facebook Business Page, added over 50 friends and I now had almost 30 ‘Likes'. My Twitter account had 1500 followers and I was starting to pick up "offline" clients. Local businesspeople were now starting to approach me to ask what I was doing.....and, could I do it for them?
In mid January, I picked up my first client, a massage therapist who wanted to promote a new pain relief product that she was selling. Within 2 days of making changes to her Facebook account, she had made 3 sales of this new product. She became a walking talking testimonial for me. Over the next 3 weeks she helped me get a number of new customers from a lady who sold party products such as balloons, costumes and food, to a new bridal business to a Printer who was looking for a way to sell his business. Business was starting to take off.
Around about this time, I decided that it was time I visited my Outsourcers in The Philippines. I booked a flight from Sydney to Manila via Darwin to arrive late Wednesday 16th February and to return via the same route late Sunday 20th February. Unfortunately for me, and the people of Darwin, a cyclone hit a few hours before I was due to take off and my flight got cancelled.
No more flights were available on an alternative route until early the following day. So, I got shunted onto a flight to Melbourne where I had a 3 hour wait for a flight to Singapore. Thank goodness that the seats were comfortable and the service was first class. I was not looking forward to a further 8 hour stopover in Singapore, but at least it was Changi airport. If you have to have an 8 hour airport stopover, make sure it is Changi. There's plenty to do. Shopping, computer games, free wifi, food, drink and a relaxing swim in the hotel pool......and it is huge!
Eventually arriving at Manila airport at 3.50AM on Friday the 18th did not leave me a lot of time to meet the team but, luckily for me, this is a wonderful team. Four people showed up at the airport to greet me and to drive me to my hotel in Batangas City, a 90 minute trip south from Manila. Gee Joy and Dan, the two owners of the business, arrived with Nowen, my Virtual Assistant at that time, and Jasmine who is my current VA. I was amazed that anyone would show up at that time of the morning, let alone 4 of them!
After a few hours sleep at Days Hotel Batangas, my hosts Gee Joy and Dan were back to collect me and take me to their home which doubles as their office. Gee Joy and Dan have 12 professional young ladies working for them. They are very experienced in Social Media, SEO, video production, article writing, forum posting, backlinking and many other online tasks. I had the opportunity to interview each one of them and was surprised at their backgrounds. Some of them had been teachers, some had been clerks and some of them had university degrees. It's not always easy to get the job you are trained for in The Philippines so Outsourcing is a real growth industry in this country. Their quality of work is excellent, they speak very good English, they work hard and they are extremely loyal.
During my short stay Gee Joy, Dan and Nowen never left my side from the moment they picked me up at the hotel in the morning until the time they dropped me back there. We combined work with pleasure and visited all the local sites of interest including Tagaytay and the Taal Volcano where the Survivor Tagaytay TV show was filmed. My stay was much too short and I'll have to go for a week next time so I can visit the resorts.
In Part Four of my SMM Campaign I will discuss what has happened between my visit in February through to mid July 2011 and how my Campaign is changing.

Advantages of Philippine Business Process Outsourcing (BPO)
Business Process Outsourcing or BPO is globally acknowledged to be the fastest growing industry in the world with a market that is expected to each almost $200 billion by the end of the decade. The industry has also remained stabled despite the global financial crisis. Customer contact services has the biggest share in the industry, followed by finance and accounting, and human resource services. Skills quality and competence is the primary driver why so many multinational companies prefer to outsource their non-core functions, plus the cost-effectiveness derived from entirely or almost entirely eliminating the fixed expenses of the outsources activities.
Business process outsourcing is the assignment of one or more business processes to an external usually offshore provider that specializes in the desired processes. The said process provider in turn owns, administers and manages the delegated process according to definite and measurable criteria of performance. The Philippines is internationally well known for the skills and competence of its BPO workforce.
The huge and continuously rising demand for Philippine call center services continues to lead the gigantic BPO boom in the country. The archipelago’s 62% growth rate in 2006 when the industry earned $2.1 billion compared to the $1.3 billion it earned in 2004 was what has placed the country in the global BPO spotlight. It now ranks third in the world, slightly behind India, and a little more to go to reach the current BPO king, India. The Philippine’s 2,400 BPO workforce in 2004 increased exponentially to 200,000 Filipinos working in 120 BPO companies, most of which were call centers, in 2006. Overall, the Philippine BPO industry is expected to reach a demand of $11 billion with a workforce of 900,000 people before the start of the next decade.
Though the Philippine BPO boom was initiated by the traditional low-cost call centers, the growth was sustained by the great increase in the demand for the higher earning outsourcing services such as legal services, Web design, medical transcription, software development, animation, and shared services. The Philippines has already taken steps to elevate its large pool of highly skilled yet cost effective pool of lawyers and accountants and managers.
The Philippine government has expressed its full support to the countries BPO industry with its various significant fiscal and non fiscal incentives directed in attracting foreign direct investment on Philippine BPO companies. The government is determined to exercise all possible means to sustain this rapid growth and expansion.
Metro Manila houses the majority of the country’s BPO facilities, along with Cebu and Bacolod Cities. The development however has reached other regional areas and eventually led to the establishment of BPO infrastructure in areas such as Baguio City, Cagayan de Oro, Clark (Angeles City), Dagupan City, Davao City, Dumaguete City, Lipa City, Iloilo City and Legazpi City. No wonder the Philippines has been cited as one of the top 10 choices for offshore operations.
The Philippines has definitely evolved into a global BPO leader where the most skilled and effective workforce and cutting edge technology and infrastructure can be availed without the need for a huge capital outlay. If you want to get away from the increasing cost structure of a competitive business while at the same time increasing the quality of your business processes, the Philippines is indeed the place to go.
BPO has transcended from being mere means of cost savings in transaction-intensive, back office business processes to being a very adaptive and strong approach to the realization of a wide array of strategic and tactical claims.
General BPO Benefits
1. Speed to Market – BPO quickly hastens the process of getting fully operational allowing a startup business to be fully stable in weeks rather than months through the use of state-of-the-art capabilities.
2. Competitive Capabilities – established businesses can evolve their current processes into globally competitive capabilities.
3. Cost Savings – BPO dramatically lowers the cost of processes through the elimination of fixed costs.
4. Growth stimulus – BPO can be utilized as a learning tool to get acquainted with the latest, unique and competent capabilities.
5. Revenue – higher quality capabilities brought about by BPO can cause great increase in a company’s income generation capacity.
BPO is now generally considered as an edge to having that unique competitive advantage. With non-core processes being done by the external provider that is specialized in the said activities, the company is able to focus more on its core processes. In the case of human resource outsourcing, HR functions such as payroll and benefits, recruitment, and personnel evaluation are passed on to an outsourcer that specializes in human resource management (HRM) and who will keep the company abreast of constant change in the field of HRM.
The Philippines is deemed to have a stable grip in its place as a global leader of BPO. The country is in a very good position to accommodate outsourcing demands with its outstanding pool of superior yet cost-effective workforce and its excellent telecommunications software and infrastructure. CallComInc BPO is the premier BPO company in the Philippines. Its founder is the primary proponent of the revolutionary 4StepstoSuccess Action Plan, the automated sales machine Tom Green.
I will be staying here for my trip, and upgraded to a premier suite, can anyone tell me about personal experience with this hotel or someone that they know that has stayed here, and what should I expect, so far the reviews I have read are good, they say they have a very friendly staff, but some points i have found kinda bad, but I dont expect to have it perfect.
Its the best hotel I've stayed in. Its really pretty, the staff is great, and I had no issues when I was there.

going to davao philippines for the first time and will stay at the Crown Regency Hotel?
has anyone stayed at the Crown Regency Hotel in Agdao Davao City - Philippines..I would like to know if anyone is familiar with this hotel and does it have good customer service and is it safe..
I have never been to the Crown Regency, however I do know there are several Americans and other expats living in Davao that participate in Living in the Phiilippins Yahoo support forum that focues on life in the Philippines that probably know the hotel. I also know there are knowledgeable members on another Yahoo support forum called Mag Anak, that deals with immigration and relationship issues involving primarily Americans and other western citizens.
Especially if this is your first visit to the Philippines I suggest you check out both of these forums. There is much you should know about the Philippines before making the trip, like Visa Issues, common scams and much more. Membership on both these forums are knowledgeable about a variety of issues concerning the Philippines, its people, culture and way of life.
Take it from someone with 28 years of experience, me. See http://www.ricexpats.com and if you have any questions feel free to e-mail me.

inn in davao city"inn in davao city" is there any cheap motels near naia airport for an overnight stay?
me and my gf will be coming from bangkok this dec26 to attend a wedding in davao city. but we need to stay a night somewhere near the naia airport with shopping mall nearby before heading to davao.
we prefer a cheap inn, or motel where we can secure our luggage while doing short-shoppings..and of course for a good night rest. thanks for your advice.
The nearest mall is SM City Sucat. There is an apartelle called Orange along Sucat Road. However, the review about this apartelle is not good so if you are picky, go somewhere else.
Going farther away would actually give you a better choice.
You may also want to shop in Mall of Asia, in Pasay City. That is quite close. And maybe you can book a room in Kabayan Hotel. It is cheap and clean. Here is the link:

Hotels for Manila would be Intercontinental (great location but getting old), The Peninsula or for sure the ageless Mandarin. Cebu I suggest resorts, Shangri-La or Imperial Palace.

Traveling to Davao: Hotel Travel Agency Questions?
I'm traveling in Sept but do I need to book now for a hotel? Or can I just wing it and just get a room when I get there. I did book a room for Waterfront Insular, but if I wanted to go to Grand Regal or Apo View, is it important? I don't know how busy it gets in Sept. Also, could anyone which is less sketchy....Crown Regency or Grand Regal. They are both priced around the same.
I noticed a lot of hotels not listed online from the http://www.davaocity.gov.ph/Directory.aspx?scid=15&name=Hotels website. But a lot of them sound like good deals. I just have no way to validating it.
Has anyone stayed at Paradise Island? I can't find a way to reserve a room online. I guess I just have to call or can I wing it?
Also travel agencies. Any recommendations for a US traveling to Davao? What do you guys suggest? Can I get cheaper room rates? And can I negotiate rates with the hotels?
Lots of questions. But if you live in Davao...please help me out. Thanks!

Many hotels require credit card to reserve a room for you, especially over the Internet. So best way to do is to try reserve it by phone. Also when checking in, they will require you to put down cash deposit, up to twice the daily room rate. So if you plan to stay a week, make sure you have enough cash for two weeks room charge; shopping and everything else is extra.
If you want hotel that's close to the airport, do a Google search, hotel web sites have that sort of information, map direction, nearby attractions, etc.
And, Hong Kong is very safe. If you manage to stay in one piece in Riyadh, Hong Kong will be like Disneyland to you.
Climbing over the narrow, wing-root walkway and stepping on to the cushioned seat of the tandem, two-place, blue and yellow fabric-covered open-cockpit Boeing PT-17 Stearman registered N55171 in Stow, Massachusetts, I lowered myself into position with the aid of the two upper wing trailing edge hand grips and fastened the olive-green waist and shoulder harnesses. Donning era-prerequisite goggles and helmet, I surveyed the fully duplicated instrumentation before me and prepared myself both for an aerial sightseeing fight of Massachusetts and a brief, although temporary, return to World War II primary flight training skies.
The Boeing PT-17 Stearman had its origins in a self-financed design project intended for military training purposes. Just beginning to see a flicker of light at the end of Great Depression’s tunnel and hitherto only surviving by manufacturing parts and components for other aircraft, primarily those for the Boeing B247 twin-engined airliner, the Stearman Aircraft Company believed that its future could only be secured with a military design.
Investing its own funds in 1933, it modified a Model 6 Cloudboy, an earlier Lloyd Stearman aircraft, by introducing a new, circular fuselage cross-section similar to that used by the Model 80, another Stearman design, providing only lower-wing ailerons, incorporating a cantilever undercarriage, and mounting a new tail with adjustable trims on the trailing edge of its elevators. Designated Model 70, it had first flown from Wichita, Kansas, on January 1, 1934 powered by a nine-cylinder, 210-hp, Lycoming R-680 radial engine, proving rugged, reliable, and well-suited to rigorous training regiments with the ability to tolerate the aerobatic maneuvers to which fledgling pilots often subjected it. Although it exhibited excellent handling characteristics during its demonstration flights to the Army Air Corps and the United States Navy in Dayton, Anacostia, and Pensacola, its almost docile response to stalls proved inadequate to fulfill its intended purpose; as a result, the installation of triangular stall strips, made of wood, on its lower wings severely interrupted the air flow during high attack angles and remedied the deficiency.
The Navy, the more interested of the two, ordered 41 aircraft, plus spares, in May of 1934 for a version with a 200-hp Wright J5 radial engine called the Model 73, but designated NS-1 for the Navy. The first production aircraft was rolled out in December of that year.
A modified version, incorporating a new main undercarriage and alternatively powered by a 225-hp Wright R-760 and an equally powered, nine-cylinder Lycoming R-680 radial engine, had been designed that summer and had been targeted toward the Army Air Corps. When funding had ultimately been allocated the following year, the Army Air Corps itself had issued specifications to the Stearman Aircraft Company, resulting in an order for 20, as well as spares, of the Lycoming version designated Model X75, but called the PT-13 for Army operation.
The two-seat primary training biplane design, identical to both operators with the exception of some minor features, incorporated a rectangular welded steel tube fuselage which had been covered with metal panels on its forward section and fabric on its aft end and rendered a 25-foot, ¼-inch overall length. Its single-bay, unequally spanned, staggered upper and lower wings, using an NACA 2213 wing section, were built up of spruce-laminated spars and ribs. The center section of its upper wing was carried by wire-braced steel tube struts, while “N”-type steel tube interplane struts carried it on either of its sides. Fabric-covered, they attained motion about its longitudinal axis by the duralumin ailerons installed on the trailing edge of its lower wings, and collectively featured a 32.2-foot span and a 297.4-square-foot area.
The fabric-covered, welded steel tube, wire-braced tailplane and vertical fin featured trim tabs on its elevators.
The divided, cantilever undercarriage, incorporating a metal fairing-enclosed, torque-resisting oleo spring shock absorber in each of its main legs, had been fitted with hydraulic wheel brakes and a steerable tail wheel.
The dual, tandem, open cockpits accommodated a flight instructor and a student pilot, and baggage could be stored in the enclosed compartment behind the rear of the two.
Powered by a twin-bladed, adjustable-pitch, metal propeller mounted on a steel tube whose radial engine was fed by a center-section, 43 US gallon fuel tank and a four US gallon oil tank installed in the engine compartment itself, the aircraft, with a 1,936-pound empty weight and 2,717-pound gross eight, could climb at 840 feet-per-minute, attaining a maximum 124-mph speed and an 11,200-foot service ceiling. Range was 505 miles. Cruise speed, at a 65-percent power setting, was 106 mph, while landing speed was a docile 52 mph.
World War II’s momentum had both paralleled and dictated the aircraft’s production run. The war department’s increasing need for primary trainers resulted in the $243,578 order for 26 PT-13As for the Army Air Corps and the $150,373 order for 20 for the Navy, while a subsequent, $3 million order for PT-13Bs represented the highest in Stearman’s history and necessitated the expansion of its factory and the increase of its workforce to a hitherto record 1,000.
In addition to the United States, the design equally had foreign application. The Model 76D1, for instance, featured a nine-cylinder, 320-hp, twin-bladed, adjustable prop Pratt and Whitney R-985-T1B engine, three .30 caliber machine guns, a two-way radio, and floats, and ten were initially ordered by the Argentine Navy. The Model 73L3, featuring a 225-hp Lycoming R-680-4 engine, was flown in the Philippines, and the aircraft also saw service in Brazil.
Indeed, by 1940, Stearman produced one PT-13-type trainer every 90 minutes, and the momentum, once set in motion, had been unarrestable. On June 25 of that year, the Navy signed a $3.8 million contract for 215-hp Lycoming R-680-8-powered N2S-2s and –5s, sparking another 40,000-square-foot factory expansion. By August, 1,100 personnel worked two eight-hour shifts six days per week, while the following month 1,400 worked round the clock on three daily eight-hour shifts.
Completed aircraft were ferried either to the Army Air Corps’ base at Randolph Field in Texas or the Navy’s in Pensacola, Florida.
In order to avoid production delays because of engine unavailability, Stearman produced two sub-versions. The first of these, the PT-17, featured a stressed airframe with 300-hp engine capability, although it was standardly powered by the seven-cylinder, 220-hp Continental R-670-5 radial, while the second, the PT-18, was produced with a 225-hp Jacobs R-755. Only 150 of the latter, however, had been built. Both appeared in 1940.
The type reached a major milestone on March 15 of the following year when the Army Air Corps took delivery of the 1,000th primary flight trainer in Wichita, the only Stearman design ever to have achieved such a production run. But the milestones, fueled by the war, mounted in rapid succession: only five months later, on August 27, the 2,000th aircraft, a PT-17, had been delivered to the Army Air Corps. These production rates could only be supported by an equally increasing workforce, eclipsing 3,000 in April and 5,000 in June.
In September of 1941, the Stearman Aircraft Company, which had since become the “Stearman Division of Boeing,” for the first time altogether eliminated the Stearman name, redesignated, simply, the “Boeing Aircraft Company, Wichita Division.”
The basic design also had civil application under Approved Type Certificate No. 743, which had been granted on June 6, 1941 for the Model A75L3, a 225-hp Lycoming PT-13 equivalent, and the Model A75N1, a 220-hp Continental R-670 counterpart. The types, concurrently manufactured along existing military production lines, were sold to Parks Air College in Illinois, one of the Civilian Pilot Training Program operators, and to Peru as the A75N1.
By December of 1941, an airframe had been completed every 60 to 70 minutes.
Another specialized version, the PT-27, featured a modified Continental engine for arctic-temperature operations, a canopied cockpit, an instrument flight training hood, installation of an electrical system, and landing lights. Of the 300 ordered by the Royal Canadian Air Force, 287 had been returned between December of 1942 and June of 1943 because of failure to complete the necessary post-delivery modifications, rendering them unsuitable for sub-zero temperature operations.
When the war had ultimately ended in 1945, the Wichita Division of Boeing had produced 8,584 primary flight trainers, or 44 percent of all flight trainers for the war. Yet, more than a year after the production line had closed, it had received an order to 24 N2S-4s from the People’s Republic of China. Two such aircraft--one with serial number 37902, which had first been delivered on October 31, 1942 and had logged 1,564 hours, and one with serial number 55759, which had first been delivered on July 20, 1943 and had flown 1,116 hours—had been located in Clinton, Oklahoma, and, after overhaul and installation of six-cylinder Lycoming O-435-II opposed engines, had been shipped on May 23, 1947. They were later joined by 20 220-hp Continental R-670-4-powered N2S-3s.
In all, Stearman had produced 11 major primary trainer versions for the Army and the Navy.
II
The instrument panel of the PT-17 in Massachusetts, located below the slender, Plexiglas windshield, featured a directional compass, a vertical speed indicator, an airspeed indicator (in miles per hour), a turn-and-bank indicator, an altimeter, a clock, an outside air temperature and oil and fuel pressure gauge (in pounds-per-square-inch), a propeller gauge (in revolutions-per-minute), and a fuel tank feed switch, the latter for “left,” “right,” or “off.” The engine power and mixture throttles were located on the left side wall, while the rudder and brake pedals were on the floor, just beyond my feet.
The uncowled, 220-hp Continental radial engine, feeding off of the 46-gallon fuel tank, and initiated with the properly advanced throttle and mixture controls, infused the airframe with lift-promising power, as its sputtering, smoking, avgas-reeking propeller rotated into horizontal stabilizer-bathed slipstream, instantaneously causing the stick between my legs to bolt toward its rearward-most position.
Responding to its advanced throttle, the Stearman moved beneath the gleaming, high-noon sun parallel to the Assabel River, turning to the right and executing its full engine run-up, angled toward the manicured, sloping, 2,300-foot grass field which would imminently serve as its runway. This had, after all, been World War II.
Inching forward under its own power and aligning with the grass field, the PT-17 bit into the wind with fully advanced throttles, raising its lift-generated tail before disengaging its two spinning main wheels at 60 mph and surmounting the field-perimeter trees in a climbing, left turn at 550 feet.
The green-carpeted, blue lake-dotted topography of Massachusetts, unobstructed in the crystal-blue, 80-degree June skies, retreated below me.
Angling through 1,200 feet at a 600 foot-per-minute climb rate and 72-mph indicated air speed, the biplane, registering a 1,800-rpm reading on its single-bladed propeller, moved over the myriad of mirror-reflective lakes, the grass field of Stow now reduced to indistinguishable green carpeting.
A predetermined, vigorous stick-shaking signal by the equally helmeted and goggled pilot behind me, whose presence could be visually verified by the tiny mirror installed in the upper wing’s underside, indicated a flying hand-off, and a touch of my helmet affirmed its acceptance.
The stick between my legs, the sole means of controlling the aircraft’s lateral (pitch) and longitudinal (roll) axes, had reduced my fate and direction to a single channel and, bombarded from all angles by the unobstructed wind, I had attained a new-found freedom which had eclipsed both earth-bound restrictions and adjective descriptions.
Maintaining a 240-degree, southwesterly heading over Hudson at an 80-mph air speed, I pointed the nose toward the still-nebulous outline of Wachusett Mountain, whose silhouette rose above the horizon line, now isolated unto my own world, disconnected from civilization, the ground, and even the pilot behind me, in a harmonious, soul-fusion with the universe. Isolated, with nothing to cling to, whether it be physical location or negative emotion, the soul always ultimately re-emerges to its autonomous state. If that state could have only been a permanent one…
Banking left to a southerly, 180-degree heading over Marlborough, I skirted the Sudbury Reservoir, the upper and lower wing-generated lift carrying me to 1,800 feet at a 90-mph speed, while the engine drank fuel with an 11 gallon-per-hour thirst.
A left pressure on the stick arced the PT-17 on to an easterly course over Southborough and Framingham toward Boston, its engine oil pressure registering 75 pounds-per-square inch.
Most of World War II’s civil and military pilot training occurred in the very aircraft type I currently flew.
Seeking to fill a massive need and tap into the university student population with up to 20,000 pilot trainees per year, President Roosevelt had signed a bill creating the Civilian Pilot Training Program in December of 1938, in which pilots, already armed with sufficient hours from civilian schools, would be qualified to complete their training at Army and Navy air bases in PT-13, PT-17, and N2S Stearman aircraft. In order to remedy the program’s two major flaws of insufficient military flying technique curriculum inclusion and initial obligation to serve in the armed forces immediately after graduation, the Primary Training School Program, in which the Civil Aeronautics Authority first inspected and approved civilian flight schools, had been created. The specially-contracted facilities, staffed by civilian flight instructors who themselves were required to attend pilot training courses at Randolph Field in order to “ensure uniformity of training in conformity with established Air Corps methods and standards,” were supplied with curricula, textbooks, and Stearman primary trainers directly from the Army. The first such pilots entered the program on June 1, 1939 and ultimately numbered 125 dispersed throughout 41 schools by December of 1941.
The infamous Pearl Harbor attack during that month, however, had been preceded by an unprecedented build up of pilot corps and combat groups. Three months before the event, in the fall, the Army Air Corps had drafted a plan for simultaneous battle against the German Third Reich and the Empire of Japan, estimating the need for two million soldiers and 88,000 aircraft. Although the Army Air Corps training centers in Randolph Field, Maxwell Field in Alabama, and Moffet Field in California had been established in mid-1940, they would prove pitifully inadequate in the event of war, as would the paltry number of pilots to emerge from them. With war clouds about to burst at their seams, the urgency to rectify these deficiencies could not be underestimated, and the projected numbers of required combat groups and pilots rose with the rapidity of a clock’s winding second hand. Two months before Germany had attacked Poland, the number stood at 24 combat groups and 1,200 annual pilots, yet, when Germany had invaded Norway, these figures had risen to 41 and 7,000. Hitler’s invasion of France further escalated the need to 54 and 12,000 and ultimately to 84 and 39,000.
Another vigorous stick shaking indicated that it had been time to all too soon relinquish control, which I affirmed with another top-of-the-helmet hand signal, and the pilot took over, demonstrating some significant maneuvers: throttling back, he induced the biplane into a vertical dive, the green-carpeted ground now directly ahead of the windshield, as it accelerated through 1,200 feet, before being arrested in a G-force pulling, return-to-level-flight recovery.
Initiating a spiraling left bank, the biplane plunged through 500 feet, leveling off and buzzing the field before once again pulling up and circling back to the left for its final approach. Seeming to brush the trees at 400 feet with its outstretched main wheels, it elevator-flared on to the grass at a power-reduced 60 mph, biting into the soft surface with its tires until deceleration had permitted the tail wheel to resettle groundward.
Taxiing round to the right, the PT-17 Stearman applied its brakes, and I extricated myself from the waist and shoulder harnesses and helmet and goggles and lifted myself out of the pit-like seat with the aid of the wing hand grips, climbing down toward the grass along the wing root strip.
An awaiting passenger, much to my envy, took my place in the still-sputtering biplane, a scene perhaps reminiscent of the “production line” of student pilots awaiting PT-17 availability for their next lessons during the 1940s. The aircraft, as the first link in the chain of victory, had provided vital training to the pilots who had subsequently transitioned to the larger, more powerful, and heavily armed fighters and bombers with which they had ultimately triumphed in war. The initial, and sometimes smallest, aspect of any operation often proves the most important.
Walking back to my car amidst the heat, I would think about that philosophy…

scuba dive cebu"scuba dive cebu" I will visit Cebu for 6 days,just hanging out.No scuba diving,not going to bars.My hotel is already paid for.?
Will $100 US dollars per day be enough for my food & misc?
if the hotel is paid for, then one hundred dollars per day is enough, you can't go crazy and spend money like water, but you definitely can 'hang out', and do a couple of nice things for 100 bucks per day.

davao pearl farm"davao pearl farm" aside from pearl farm beach result, is there another place to visit Davao city?
lots! just in samal island alone (where pearl farm is located) you have a host of other beach resorts. aside from those, you could go see the philippine eagle sanctuary, the davao crocodile farm, eden nature resort (highly recommended), and the gap farm.
there are also districts outside of the city proper (i can't remember the name though) that offer white water tubing (kind of like white water rafting, except you ride on a rubber tire interior instead of a raft).
if you like to shop for souvenirs, visit the aldivinco market near marco polo hotel for some good buys. there are also golden pomelo stalls nearby as well as fruit stands that sell durian.
then you could cap it all off with a few drinks at matina town square (mts) or at the venue.
enjoy!

Exploring flights to Manila to get Cheap flights to Manila
Philippines are a fine unique situate to holiday. With its tropical weather and outstanding assortment of beaches and resorts, anyone would simply plunge in love with this superb country located in the south eastern part of Asia.
When I visited Manila, it composes me wish for to plan an immediate return for another stopover. If you are getting ideas of traveling to the Philippines, you should certainly be a slight common with its main city capital called Manila. This is where you will most likely plan your flight arrival destination to end up at.
You need to do a lot of research while finding cheap flights to manila as well as you have to plan ahead of time. Flights to further neighborhood airport destinations may not be economical since manila is the major capital of the nation. So, almost all international flights are routed thru the city's Ninoy Aquino International Airport, thus, more planned flights and much lesser operating expense for airline companies.
When I am writing this new article, they have 6 expected straight international flights. Taipei is the most lately supplementary voyage to their list of scheduled flights, and is scheduled for at least twice a week. It maybe a little costly compared to a Manila flight, but if you be determined to go anywhere near Cebu area like Bohol or somewhere around the Visayas region, then it would be a quite good option to take advantage at. Another international Airport would be in Davao which has 3 international daily scheduled flights, to Singapore, to Koror Palau, and to Manado Indonesia.
Airfares are more often than not the most luxurious part of a vacation trip, then to it would be hotel accommodations; this is why most of those who prepare to visit the Manila would definitely want to go following those cheap flights to Manila. Nevertheless, once you appear in the country, most of the things you will find there have effectively cheap prices, like foodstuff, haulage, souvenir items, clothing stuffs, and other accessories you may want to buy, way much cheaper compared to buying the same things from other countries.
In addition, there are some tips, would be useful in finding cheap flights to Manila would be:
• Inquire for citation or quotation from travel outfits.
• Navigating through the internet to measure up to and get the best rates out there.
• If you are from UK, then there are lots of travel agents selling cheap airfares to Manila, do try asking for them around your neighborhood.

asia travel_11"asia travel" What is the best way to travel Asia frm UK? Order of flights etc ?
Hi,
I'm looking for the best way to visit and travel around Asia etc. It will only be for 2 weeks around next September time.
What would be the best place to fly to from Birmingham, UK and where should I fly to internally once I'm there to get best value for money?
I was thinking along the lines of Birmingham to Hong Kong to Singapore To Bangkok to Phuket to Hong Kong To Birmingham or something along those lines?
Thanks
Gee you are sure cramming loads in to a short time! If you want to get out of it cheaper you could possibly consider going to Kuala Lumpur instead of Singapore. You can get good bargain airfares on Air Asia, but you do not want to be having a same day connection with your main international flight as Air Asia does cancel a lot of flights which means they put you on the next flight or the earlier flight which if connecting the same day could mean you miss your main international flight. Bangkok is a place that you could easily spend 4 days getting to see reasonably well and so is Hong Kong.
You should probably drop one place because you are really going to be on the go the entire time. You could possibly fly in to Hong Kong - Bangkok - Phuket - Bangkok - Hong Kong all on Air Asia. You could maybe go to Chang Mai instead of Phuket. It really depends on what you want out of your trip. The flights will certainly be cheaper not going to Singapore and either leaving that part out all together or go via Kuala Lumpur using Air Asia.
