00:00 This is the answer of Fish Bulera of Bampaga Abas,
00:03 and the answer of Daragang Magayon of Bicolandia is Sky's the Limit.
00:06 Daragang Magayon, have you ever been dizzy during your trip?
00:09 Well, it's really dizzying, Kuya Kim,
00:11 because it's my first time to control an aircraft.
00:14 But because of this hurricane, I enjoyed it a lot
00:18 and I conquered my fear of heights.
00:20 I'm excited to watch it.
00:22 Let's go to the story of the mystery host,
00:25 Daragang Magayon of Bicolandia.
00:28 [music]
00:30 This is your captain speaking.
00:32 Welcome to OASIS.
00:34 I'm so jealous.
00:37 I've been to so many places.
00:39 How does it feel to be a superhero?
00:45 I'm Daragang Magayon of Bicolandia,
00:50 and that's the story of "Dapat Alam Nyo, Alam Nyo Ko Lang."
00:55 [laughs]
00:57 Sky is the limit, you say?
01:00 But here in Paranaque,
01:02 you can fly even if you're not in the sky,
01:06 even if you're not a licensed pilot.
01:08 Like me, I can fly an airplane.
01:11 Well, using a flight simulator.
01:14 [music]
01:23 Captain George Cania was the pilot
01:26 who created this flight simulation center in Paranaque.
01:30 Our actual vision when we made this sim
01:34 was actually for pilots to keep their proficiency
01:39 in flying in a safe environment.
01:42 We witnessed a crash in front of us,
01:45 and then it made me think,
01:47 "What can I do to help the aviation community
01:51 to lessen the number of accidents?"
01:53 We noticed also that we can actually offer it also to non-pilots,
01:56 and you don't have to go to the airport,
01:58 you don't have to go to a flying school.
02:00 We simulate a Cessna 170 tour, a basic trainer.
02:03 Everything can be trained here,
02:05 from pre-flight, taxi, take-off, stalls, landing.
02:10 Everything that can be done in the actual aircraft
02:15 can be practiced here.
02:18 So, we will try to fly a flight simulation today.
02:24 It's like I'm in a game.
02:29 Don't you have a seatbelt, Captain?
02:31 I don't have one, I can't even lift this.
02:33 [laughs]
02:34 [engine noise]
02:43 [laughs]
02:47 I don't know what I'm feeling right now.
02:50 This is also very close to the actual thing.
02:55 What is the view of it?
02:57 This one is a 220-degree secure view.
03:01 It's more than 180 degrees,
03:03 even if you try to turn left or right, you still see.
03:07 It can also simulate the landing of an airplane.
03:11 Mayday, mayday!
03:13 [laughs]
03:14 For you to recover, you have to push the yoke.
03:17 Okay, turn around.
03:18 It's turning right.
03:20 It's really going right.
03:23 Wow, it's really exciting to be a pilot.
03:27 Aside from the various plane maneuvers,
03:30 through the flight simulator,
03:33 you can also experience the various terrains and ramps
03:37 of airports in various countries.
03:40 How does it feel to take off at Lukla Airport in Nepal,
03:45 the so-called most dangerous airport in the world?
03:49 The runway is the runway of the runway of the map.
03:53 So during your takeoff,
03:56 it's the runway of the map.
03:58 End of the runway is already clear.
04:01 Ready for landing.
04:05 There.
04:06 I will rate my experience of 11/10.
04:11 Very challenging.
04:12 I have a little fear of flying,
04:14 but I conquered it.
04:16 There's a quote,
04:17 "The best safety device in any aircraft is a well-trained pilot."
04:22 So training is really, really important.
04:25 You should know that in 1943,
04:28 the Philippines opened the first commercial airline in Asia,
04:34 the Philippine Airlines.
04:36 The first flight was attended by 2 pilots and 5 passengers
04:40 in the Beechcraft Model 18 from Manila to Baguio.
04:45 I landed safely today.
04:49 I wasn't left behind in the air.
04:52 But even though I was so happy and excited to fly,
04:55 there's still a fear.
04:58 Especially if there are passengers, right?
05:01 I am Daragang Magayon Ng Bicolanjo, Kapuso.
05:05 And that is the story you should know.
05:08 [music]
