The Sainik School Plane

While we were in class 11, we were asked to write a short essay (100 words to be exact, + or - 10 words you start loosing marks). One of my classmates decided to write on a delapidated war bird that was kept in front of our school. And Reji, I still have that paper wrote in Soman Pillai's class. Here is his essay.


The Sainik School Plane
------------------------
It is an old plane lying rusted looking at the school and reminiscing its good old days. The outer part is metallic and there is a glass covering at the pilot's place. Alas, the wings that once carried the plane are now carrying the ground. The metallic covering at the front is removed and the engines are exposed. We can see the remnants of the propellers at the front.

The pilot seat is no more and we can see only a metallic piece in its place. The wires and different parts are jumbled up by the de-juro pilots of our school. It is wonderful to sit inside and operate the parts. The auspicious presence of Chandavila boys give flesh and blood to the plane. I strongly doubt if the plane has given a homely atmosphere to snakes and other creatures. Despite of its drawbacks the plane gives a majestic look to the school and it stands as a symbol of our enthusiasm.
