๐Subic Bay Freeport Zone, Olongapo Zambales
The SBECC felt like a museum to me because of the beautiful paintings in its massive canvases. It looked luxurious inside and it was so capacious that unfortunately, we didn't have enough time to look at everything.ย
๐Q7RC J9M, Argonaut Hwy, Subic Bay Freeport Zone, Bataan, Philippines
The building was almost derelict; the kind that you'd think the military would find just sufficient. Anyhow, I learned so much! About aircrafts' headwind and tailwind! How they monitor the weather to disseminate information to pilots. It was certainly a difficult set of topics. Sir Arnel G. Gonzales lectured...
๐Subic Bay International Airport, Subic Bay, Olongapo City, Zambales, Subic Bay Freeport Zone

๐Padre Burgos Ave, Ermita, Manila, 1000 Metro Manila
