Come may and every student of Aeronautical Society of India (AeSI)has two questions in mind. One is when is the aesi examinations and the other question is have you received your admit card.

I visited aesi.org right now and the examination dates of june 2008 are still not published. I am not sure if they publish it there anymore. Your best bet to get this info is to find someone who has got the admit card for the amaesi examination of june 2008.

Biggest indian aerospace news this week

Biggest indian aerospace news of this week is definitely the record launch of 10 satelite by PSLV. This is the same  PSLV that will take indian's chandrayaan-1 to moon!!

Chandrayaan-1 which should have been launched in April month now is
delayed till the 3rd quarter of this year.

Another news that will make engineering students of India happy is that France has opened doors to its technology for indian engineers. Alten, a leading french engineering group had sponsered 16 young engineering students to study in various universities across France and the streams include aerospace,cad-cam, design, automotive. Check the news here.

Well Alten is a leading French engineering firm but in India, HAL takes this honor and there's a news that the Indian government might take the route of privatization to unlock the true value of HAL. Incidentally financial results of HAL are encouraging as sales have doubled,and net profits are up and it became debt free at the end of the year. Read the story Can HAL go global?

Solidworks CAD video tutorials

Solidworks was the main CAD program that i used in NAL. Its cousin sister of CATIA and in my opinion solidworks is the best CAD pacakage to begin your computer aided
design journey.

And what can be a better way to learn it?

Apart from watching someone, i think the best way to learn CATIA or SOLIDWORKS is to watch video tutorial. And you tube has many. Here's the collection of some that i liked.

An open letter to Anna University from Mr. Bishnujee

An open letter Dr. D Viswanathan, Vice Chancellor & Chairman ,Southern Region AICTE Anna University Chennai

Subject: Request for changes in Admission for Aeronautical Society of India 's Engineering Graduates for ME program at Anna University.

Honorable D Viswanathan, Sincere compliments of the day. It has been astonishing to note that when we are heading forward in 21st century,Anna University has been heading in reverse direction in 20th Century.It has been brought to my notice that your concerned reputed Anna University has made changes to admission policy after its 11th Council meeting to Professional Aeronautical Engineering Graduates from Aeronautical Society of India for ME Aeronautical Engineering program,should be possessing 2 years Post Qualification experience in order to secure admission in your reputed University programme.


It has been surprising to note that Aeronautical Society of India's Engineering Graduates have been admitted in Sheffield hallam University England for there MSc in Engineering Program,Prestigious Penn State University,USA has admitted current fresh pass out Graduates from AeSI in there MS programme in Aerospace Engineering, University of Southern California has already MS Degree holders with AeSI as first qualification,University of Missouri,USA has also offered place in there MS program for current pass out AeSI Graduates ,Salford University MS in Aerospace Engineering program in England and AeSI has been listed as Approved University list from India on University of Miami,Florida,USA,Arizona State University for MS in Aerospace Engineering program and all major Credential Evaluation bodies has given AeSI same status like any other Indian University in India.Boeing Company,USA accords AeSI Graduates as same status as ABET Accrediated BSc in Aeronautical Engineering from USA University.

AeSI Graduates in past have numerous laurels at IIT Chennai last year Techfest 2006 and also recipient of First Ever Cayley Award 2003 in England by Royal Aeronautical Society,London. http://www.csirwebistad.org/aesi/pages/cayleyaward03.htm
Everything proves that AeSI Engineers have proved to be more successful in there career as Aerospace Engineer than Graduates from Other Universities like IITs ,MITs,IISc and already Boeing,NASA and Airbus where AeSI Engineers have executed successfully in many reputed Boeing 787 Programmes in USA,Airbus A380 programmes in UK and also in NASA's programmes.

I am aware that numerous staffs of Anna University are on Academic and governing council of AeSI,India and this incidents and discriminatory against Professional Engineering Graduates of AeSI is ridiculous.More over you people must already be aware that almost 98% of AeSI Graduates are full time students and it has been mentioned even in AeSI Registration form regarding that. I would be glad if you people could take necessary measures to correct the process of admission for Professional Graduates in Master's program and remove the 2 years criteria for Aeronautical Society of India AeSI Engineers.

Kind regards
Bishnujee Singh

Indian aerospace industry this week

I love the news that i saw regarding India aerospace this week on indianaeronews. Most of them are encouraging for aerospace professionals.

India to raise 26% FDI in defense is one of them, just like the FDI helped sectors like telecom, this move by the government will give a thrust to the aerospace sector of India and it will create jobs for aerospace professionals

As Indian government pushed ahead its plan, private companies are like Boeing can't be left behind. Boeing IDS has reached out to the Indian aerospace and technology sectors to identify potential public and private industrial partners. This is one more news that accentuates my view of the Boeing company that its looking very positively towards India for expansions. This again is good for Indian aerospace and aerospace engineers of India.

Boeing is not alone in its quest to expand its wings in India, AIRBUS, EADS too have an eye for India.

A couple of months back i and my dear friend roopkishore visited the DAE roadshow and there we discussed that aviation and air pot management is the where most of the growth will happen in aviation. Same was pointed out by the folks of Dubai Aerospace Enterprise in their slide show.

So its not surprising when International Air Transport Association (IATA) estimates that over the next five years aviation in India will grow by an annual rate of up to 10 %. According to a 2007 survey by Airbus, India will require more than 900 aircraft seating over 100 passengers by 2025," High growth in in these sectors means positive and good requirements for aerospace professionals. So get up and get ready folks.

And talking about Dubai, how can we miss that Dubai is on the fast-track of reinforcing itself as the hub of major aviation and aerospace activity - not just within the region, but on a global scale as well. Evidence is abundant: The emirate is building what will become the world's largest airport - Dubai World Central; Dubai Aerospace Enterprise has been active in acquiring capacity in leasing, maintenance and repair and airline.

Question that they asked in GE interview

A few months back a good friend of mine went to GE for an interview for the post related to stress anlysis. I had an email chat with him about it. Here are the technical questions he faced while there.

1) what is the need of modal analysis?

2) Equation that computer solve for the above analysis?

3) what is the basic equation to find the natural frequency of any specimen?

4) question related to cantilever beam?

5) about project?


Apart from this above questions, there was questions on AMAeSI that he has listed in his resume. So i think Bishnujee's suggestion of using BE aero graduate is much more appropriate and you can explain it much better.
