A Weekend with Hitz.FM & Firefly!


What a weekend!

After a long absence in the world of radio contests, I am finally back! This time with Hitz.FM. I was lucky enough to be in the running to win a year worth of flight tickets courtesy of Firefly. There were 12 contestants all together and we were told to be at Empire Mall (Subang) on Saturday (13th Aug) for a flight simulator training and on Sunday (14th Aug) for the actual day competition. What was it that we had to do? - To fly a plane of course!

But then again, it isn't a real plane. We had to complete a flight simulator test and it was a real exciting challenge. Did I win in the end? Well, I will just let the photos do the talking...

So there you have it. I won! Apart from the free flights (thank you Firefly!) the best experience I had was that I did my first ever flight simulator! And, most importantly, I did not crash the plane! Ha! Ha! Therefore, I can now proudly declare that I, Cindy, has had experience in flying a "plane!" Awesome stuff! Thank you HITZ.FM!!!
