Farewell myaesi!


This is my last post on the myaesi blog. Although I won’t be taking it off the air for quite some time yet, I will not be posting new material, or replying to comments. Over the coming days and weeks, I’ll be disabling comments on all posts and updating relevant pages with a auto notice.

 

I have been writing here since 2004. At first, there was little interest in this rather niche blog. I am pleased to say, however, that our readership has grown steadily over the years, especially after the internet went mainstream. The blog has been a growth experience for me and had been a very handy conversation-starter.

 

However, all good things must come to an end, and it’s time for me to move on. There are many others now writing about aesi, and doing so very well and more prolifically than I am able to manage these days. I must also honour the key lesson that my recent reflections has taught me: If I want to achieve some of the things that I aspire to, I have to narrow my focus and apply my energy to fewer projects.

 

Thank you very much for being part of the myaesi journey. I have appreciated every comment, pingback, email exchange and offline conversation over the years. This journey has never been about creating a super-successful blog or monetizing the content, although I have played lightly with both at times. For the most part, this blog has primarily served as a very public and honest account of my own giving away to the community which has given me so much. By drawing on the experiences of my aesi and working life, I have always chronicled my learning through this blog.

 

I trust that my experiences have been useful to you and have perhaps helped you to bring order and light to your own personal journey of AeSI.

 

In case you’re wondering – I’m certainly not abandoning my blogging ways. Quite the contrary. I have an active blog at sukhbinder.wordpress.com where I explore my other interests in life.

 

Yours Truly,

Sukhbinder

Results of Make in India : Saab offers Gripen fighter jets under 'Make in India' with full control (Technology Transfer)

Swedish defence major Saab has offered to manufacture its fifth generation Gripen fighter aircraft here with technology transfer to India, in a renewed bid for a pie in the multi-billion dollar worth IAF modernisation plan. Saab is not only offering to set up a base here but also help in the development of aerospace capability for the next 100 years and partner in developing the next version of indigenous Light Combat Aircraft Tejas and the Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft (AMCA), being developed and designed by Aeronautical Development Agency.

Besides Saab, US' Lockheed Martin and the France's Dassault Aviation have offered their jets in line with the government's push for 'Make in India'.

We at AeSI Alumni Association once again thank Saab and our prime minister to make 'Make in India' a big success.

Results of Make in India : Aequs sign pact to supply components for Boeing's Chinook helicopter

Dutch firm Fokker Technologies, a division of GKN Aerospace, and aerospace manufacturer Aequs on December 17, 2015 signed an agreement to supply machined components for Boeing's Chinook heavy lift helicopter that India is also buying. Under the Long Term Agreement (LTA), Aequs will supply machined detail parts which will be made in India for the Chinook heavy lift helicopter.

Moreover Aequs Aerospace has also opened a new aerospace machining facility at its special economic zone (SEZ) in Belagavi, which strengthens Aequs' position in the market and the largest supplier to Airbus for aerospace machined components and sub-assemblies in the country. Aerospace component manufacturing company Aequs Aerospace will invest $50 million over the next five years to manufacture aerospace machined components in a new facility at its special economic zone (SEZ) in Belagavi. This facility is exclusively for France's Airbus, has the capacity to house 150 CNC (computerized numerical control) machines and generate revenue of $75 million annually. Several components for the Airbus' A320 and A380 are manufactured at the Belagavi facility. Airbus has also been sourcing doors for its single aisle aircraft family from Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd (HAL) for several years now. 

This is just the beginning. We at AeSI Alumni Association congratulate our prime minister for such a great initiative which strongly emphasize on design and make in India.

And there today this group has 60+ ppl. I am amazed. And I am happy, something I started and got support of friends and that helped me and many of U in the group, directly or indirectly. I thank one and all for this trust and integrity. Now I am thinking to expand this group and so here is the announcement.

Update on CSRP

If you are following myaesi blog, you might be aware of the CSRP program. 

We had a great response from the AeSI students and recent graduates. After the responses were closed the students thoughts on their selected projects were shared with mentors and they finally made the selection. 

We have selected 14 students/graduates for 6 exciting projects. The projects range from propulsion, CFD, FEM and data analysis. 

Below is the text of the email the selected applicants have received. Please check your email if you have applied and were selected. 

This is first such kind of initiative by AeSIAA and we hope everyone participating in the program will find benefit and will come out richer in experience and knowledge. 

As this being the first such program, we expect to learn as much from it as the selected students. For those who couldn't make it in this edition of CSRP, don't be disheartened, we plan to roll out the next CSRP during winter. 

Email:

Hi All

Thanks for your interest in the first edition of CSRP. If you are reading this email, it means you have been selected by the mentors after reading your submission for the collaborative student research program.

Congratulations. We were seeking collaborative partners for pursuing our academic and research interest and we believe we have found that in you.  

Just like the projects in the industry, most of the projects in CSRP will involve programming, learning new software and methods. So be prepared to accelerate your learning with this program. 

The pace of the program is going to be intensive with daily progress briefing and discussions. 

A full commitment of efforts and time by the participants throughout the program is strongly expected.

Only a limited number of applicants are selected and hope you will do justice to the choice. 

Welcome to the program. You will receive further notice in few days

Effort and Learning

As a rule, the more effort you make, the more you learn.

It's true for studies, for any skill building and for acquiring knowledge.

It is with this in mind that collaborative student research program (CSRP) was conceived.

There's a common consensus that students of AeSI lack practical knowledge and to some extent it's true. For me it was definitely true.

I thought I had good knowledge and skill when I applied for NAL as a trainee. But latter realized how false those assumptions were. NAL was the time that I learnt the most, acquired varied skills and got close to what I enjoyed the most.

Working there wasn't easy but it sure brought me lot of benefits.

CSRP is designed with that goal. Mentor will choose a practical problem from his work or academic pursuits and collaborate with a willing student to solve that problem. A win win situation for both, mentors problem solved and student has a practical experience of working on an actual problem.

The program won't be easy. It's not for everyone. Not everyone who enrolls will get to participate. But I am sure it will be a great learning experience for anyone who chooses to participate in it.

Intrigued, please check www.aesiaa.org/csrp_aesiaa.html for more information and then shoot an email to csrp.aesiaa@gmail.com

How are you preparing for 2020

For those who were part of the AeSI AGM in 2014 might have heard this at the venue.  For the rest here’s a snippet..

 

G M Rao, GMR chairman and current President of Aeronautical Society of India.

 

Addressing the annual general meeting (AGM) of the Aeronautical Society of India (AeSI), Rao said that India was poised to become the third largest aviation market in the world by 2020. The total spending in the next two decades was expected to be $25 billion for commercial aircraft and $100 billion as defence expenditure.

 

He, however, said that the biggest challenge to meet the enormous growth potential of aerospace and defence sector would be skilled workforce. Though India has ample technically trained manpower, “there is dearth of personal with specialised skills, particularly in the sphere of aerospace”, he added.

So what does this mean for you?

 

And here's a question for you.  How are you preparing for 2020?

15 Tips for EXAM PREPARATION by Mr Rahul Verma

 All of you are preparing for your exams and most of you are left with three or less papers in sec b, so this may be your last semester of AeSI exams. Next sem most of you will complete your degree.

I know these are the most tensed moments for a society student when he has last semester to complete section B. Question keeps roaming in mind “will I be able to clear the degree this time or not?” What if any of one paper is left? “Again I will have to waste one more sem”

Most of the students start losing their confidence due to peer pressure. And even they are good in knowledge and worked hard full of sem, they fail in one or more papers.

I want to ask WHY TO LOSE THE BATTLE JUST BECAUSE OF YOUR LOW CONFIDENCE??

Try to keep grip on your confidence, I’d tell you few thing that I did and helped me in my last sem of sec B.I will be very happy if it may help you:

1) Just keep in mind: jo bhi karna hai, jitna bhi tension lena hai, bas es sem hi lena hai...etni mehnat krni h ki next sem exam na likhna pade.

2) Plan breaks during your studies, use your most of the time for your preparation by avoiding tiredness.

3) It will be excellent if every day you can write test on previously asked question papers, if yes then do it for all the three subjects every day and mark your mistakes. If you do it for ten days continuously just before your exams then you will get solid confidence and good chances for clearing the papers.

4) Plan your syllabus and write chapter-wise tests on theory and numerical portion for each chapter. Do it in such a way so that most of the things/things where you are weak will get covered in your test.

5) Collect the things on one separate note that you need to revise frequently. List out all the formulas equations and important diagrams use minimum words and use symbols and drawing pictures to minimize the words. It will help you to revise faster.

6) For example if you usually forget the formula to be used in exam then write one test on the formulas only, it may look foolish but later after exam you will find how useful it was.

7) Complete your revision few days before the exams anyhow and plan for writing the test and correction self.

8) Divide your day in to two halves, in one prepare the questions and revise the theory and in second half write the test on the chapter/s you decided earlier.

9) It will boost your self confidence and you will be able to identify where usually you do mistakes in exam.

10) Just circle your mistakes with red pen and write the correction in front of them.

11) In case if you have two or more exams continuously then mix the questions from all those subjects in your question paper and write a detailed test. It will be proved very helpful in exam if you could do this.

12) Now before your exams you need not to revise full syllabus, you can revise most of the things by reviewing your test papers itself.

13) Post the formulas short notes in your room wall, bathroom, and toilet or in kitchen so that you can utilize your time most wisely and efficiently.

14) Keep your weekly and daily plan right in front of you where you sit to study. Write those things on board that you need to do later to avoid missing them.

15) If you have any of your idea or experience please share it so that it can help others.

Thank you.

Note : PLEASE DON'T FORGET TO THANK RAHUL.
