It's not just Nano, that TATA is concentrating on. They have an eye on the booming aerospace domain too. The Boeing Company, the world's
leading aerospace company and the largest manufacturer of commercial jetliners and military aircraft combined, has entered into an agreement with India's TAL Manufacturing Solutions, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tata Motors, for the manufacturing of structural components for Boeing's 787 Dreamliner airplane programme.
Under the agreement, TAL Manufacturing Solutions will build floor beams for the 787 using new technology with advanced titanium and composite materials.These floor beams will be used on the 787 Dreamliner and provide for a best-value solution and significant weight savings.
So AeSI folks, rejoice as you have one more avenue open

Making games is like making simulations.
Those you know me,they know that for the last 6+ months or more games
development specially for my MotoRokr phone is my fav pass time. And
just like in my previous work as design engineer in NAL, i simulate
peformance of a gas turbine engine, here in javascripts games that i
write, i simulate the environment of the game.
In the latest game that i'm working write now is on based on riding a
aircraft. No its not a flight simulator, but a small aircraft flying
around in environment. I am simulating that part. The game is still
untitled and still under development. The basic aim of the game is to
fly the aircraft without falling and without any incident with the
other things. So its a pure joy experience of manuvering your plane.
now i have the i have idea of making the aircraft more agile.
one more game that is still in mind is related to chandrayaan, india's
first mission to moon. I want to make something related to that. A
game that is interesting and catches the spirit of india's giant leap.

Annual general meeting of the Aeronautical Society of India (AeSI
The need to restructure the research and development department and improve the design and development department of public sector undertakings in aeronautics was stressed by experts here on Saturday.
Addressing the annual general meeting of the Aeronautical Society of India (AeSI), Roddam Narasimha, chairman of the Jawaharlal Nehru Centre for Advanced Scientific Research, Bangalore, said: “We have to restructure the aeronautical profession and enterprise at the earliest.”
Noting that the stage was set for the purchase of civil aircraft worth $100 billion, he said public sector units were unable to retain talented workers. “Whatever talent we have is migrating to other countries. More attention needs to be paid to aeronautics,” he said.
Comparing aeronautics to automobile industry, Srinivasapuram Krishnaswamy, former Air Chief Marshall and Chief of Air Staff, said the sector needed better marketing strategies and user-driven products.
On the future of military aircraft development in India, Mr. Krishnaswamy said the country’s aviation was witnessing an unprecedented growth. But, the civil and military aviation needs were met through import. And this was due to stagnation in the research and development and design and development of aeronautics.
Though Indian companies had the ability to design, develop and produce world-class aircraft and helicopters profitably, they just remained as centres for making components and spare parts.

Mistakes fresh AeSI graduates do in their Interview
Recently my friends at a turbo machinery company were conducting some interviews for their firm...
From the experience that they had and the discussion we had after that, I have concluded this 3 points that ails a recent graduate from aeronautical society of India.
They lack interview skills and manners.
They are under prepared
They bluff and don't even stand by those bluffs
AeSI should mean quality!! You know you have the disadvantage of not having a well known entity backing you. So And AeSI graduate needs extra care to present him or her. Your degree and the Institution is not well publicized, so make an extra effort to be professional, presentable and prepared.
When I was in NAL, we were a lot of 3-4 aesi graduates working as paid/unpaid training, but in that lot I had seen that they respected there degree and made efforts to show it in good light. When they prepared a resume, that was well prepared , when they went for interview, they researched the company and were prepared to handle questions arising from their resumes.
As I have previously stated in my previous post "How to prepare for interview after AeSI", your resume is the first impression and this is where most questions will come out so know what you have written there and be there to backup what you have stated.
My advice and strong urge to a recent graduate is to be professional, respect your degree and be prepared when you are heading for an interview!

AeSI Examination result is expected any day this week.
I am wondering if AeSI will publish the result before the AGM which is scheduled on Feb 1 and 2. As far as my information goes, aesi has always the knack of airing the results after the AGM, so things are cooler.
Anyway let's see. But one thing I am sure, it will publish the results before GATE 2008, this I have seen it do lot of times.
So what do you think, when is AeSI announcing the results. Take you guess and for all those awaiting results, my best wishes and good luck!!

AeSI Student Membership cancellation after 8 years!
Dear AeSI Students & Engineers,
I have come across that many of you are in favor of extension of old syllabus students who have held AeSI Student Membership for 8 years and this issue seems to be raised by some of you at AeSI AGM in Chennai on 01 Feb 2008.Please be advised that no Under Graduate Bachelor courses should be going on for 8 years and I am not sure how AeSI has allowed 8 years terms for Associate Membership Examination in past. This should have never been allowed in first place. Also AeSI is under obligation from AICTE to switch over to AeSI new modified syllabus as soon as possible. In these circumstances it would be very difficult for anyone to help in this matter. Even in other universities examinations if you don't pass twice extra re sitting examination, you are asked to discontinue the course and no one can pass the blame on the University.
I would request you all to come with constructive means for growth of AeSI programme instead of meaningless criticism because it affects future of thousands of AeSI Students.
Kind regards
I quite agree with Bishnujee in this regard. Instead of pushing for this we should push forward the betterment of the examination and the assessment. Most of the times, the student is under the axe because of faulty and non transparent assessment of his exams. This was the major thing that I had faced in AeSi.
Sometimes I had this experience that I did well in the examination hall but the results and the mark sheets showed exactly the opposite trend. So major push should be in regards to betterment of the examinations, and its assessment. This will be the best thing that can happen to an existing student of AeSI.
But having said that, I do feel that people who have one subject left should be given a fair chance for the last time. And after that attempt, AeSI should go ahead with its new syllabus.

MS in Aeronautical n Turbomachinery in UK and US after AeSI
Whenever I go to Chennai, the place I have studied for AeSI, there are two particular friends there where I stay and from the time I know them, they are always thinking and talking about this topic of doing MS in UK or US after AeSI. And now after reading Manish's mail in OURAeSI, I felt that I should clip that mail and post it here so it's more easily available to the folks latter when they search for it.
So here I go.
"Hi All,
This is the 1st time im writin in this group....the reason im writing is to clarify the admission procedure for Masters in UK since i applied last year...

Turbomachinery) n all dat they require is a higher Second Class....they know bout Aesi....so dun bother about xplaining them or dun run around to find proof of recognition....juss make sure u write a good Statement of Purpose and have 2 good references....if u want u can mention dat Aesi is recognized by The Royal Aeronautical Society of UK n dat wud suffice....besides dat i dun think ny1 needs 2 worry bout d degree as such....it all depends on ur application....how u present it.....

Know more about Grade Point Average (GPA score) and AeSI
Mr. G.Jaganmohan. has written a good post in OURAeSI regarding GPA and AeSI, Please read through it to find what Grade Point Average is? How is it applicable for AeSI folks desirous of going for studying abroad? And would like to congratulate Jagan for this information and wish him all the best for his future endeavors.
Hi friends,
This is crucial to inform all of society people regarding the Maters' program in US/UK. As I finished my graduation (A.M.Ae.S.I), I applied for Masters in Glasgow University and Sussex University in UK. I convinced those university professors and explained them about our degree. They are ready to grab us for higher studies, provided one should answer their questions efficiantly.
Meanwhile, its necessary to have GPA (Grade Point Average), issued by World Education Services (Newyork/Canada). Many consultancies and agencies are asking 20000-30000 to provide GPA for A.M.Ae.S.I, as it's not a regular course.
GPA is Grade Point Average, given on the basis of international scale of standard education. They will equivalise our course on a standard scale and give a result which has a maximum of 4 points. All foreign universities in UK/US ask 3 GPA out of 4.
There is no such difference like regular or correspondence course to get GPA. Students, who wish to go for higher studies in abroad, are requested not to go to any consultancy or agency to get GPA.
