yah i think teddie is right now it seem MAS like desperate for pilot keep seing add fro trainee pilot lately huhhuhh

haa..mizi is my buddy n kabadi is my sr..

first of all..aviation is all about rules n regulation. as long as u follow what's written on the papers, u r as good as an aircraft engineer can be. 2nd, academic qualification dun matter much, experience is more valuable...at least for now. if u r fresh spm, dip, or deg in whatever things other than aviation specific course, u are as good as zero. age no matter i guess, as long as u willing to study a bit.

how to get in?
1. thru company training program. e.g mas academy. probably u secure urself a job after u get thru it. duration: 4-5 yrs to LWTR?
2. thru private training school. e.g. APR. not much idea, a few mths in course than u can work with any company sooner. once in company, collect experience n study to go for LAME. duration: 4-6 yrs to LWTR?
3. thru MIAT. u got a dip and things necessary to go for LAME. duration: 4 yrs (includes dip duration) to LWTR (if all goes well like kabadi)
4. there are other places but not much info.eg tafe college?

the trick is, LWTR require some work experience. but u cannot touch aircraft without any experience. and it's also an exam so u need to study for it. this is where the training program make or break u. one more thing, LWTR is *THE* license to get to become engineer, it's License Without Type Rating. no lesen needed if wana live as technician/mechanic for the rest of ur career.
correct me of any info here if im wrong,anybody...

p/s: hey kabadi, what trait u go for? A? C? wah..miat can mass produce LAME nowadays..me go 4 heli

Hey i read thru the ARP page, since I have an electronic degree, I can apply for the so called TAME programme. It's going to take another 3 years to complete the course. Woh, that's like .. a long time for me ?

Anyway does MAS/Air Asia sponsor any students to go for the TAME programme ? Or how does MAS/Air Asia conduct their own programme ? Anyone hear of the GE group in Subang Airport ?

yes mas / airasia do their own tame program .... mas do it at their place n airasia do it at apr if i not mistaken ..... as for GE is not consider an mro cause their main priority is engine not the whole aircraft .... working in GE is like working in a workshop ur main job is to overhaul parts n component n during ur time at ge u may not gather the work schedule that u need for lwtr huhuhhuhhh

GE dont require a LAE... where there's an aircraft, LAE will be there. so they dont need one. to those who already got dip or degree, it's almost like starting all over again if u plan to be aircraft maintenance engineer. kabadi, i heard about degree requirement to be an engineer thing(under EASA), what kind of degree specifically? aircraft related? any engineering? does it mean it will be harder to be engineer when DCA embrace EASA standard?

enlight me anybody, is 3 yrs tame under APR just like MAS tame program? i mean work+study for 3 yrs? or just classes?

..and yeah, im one of the ppl offered by eurocopter. actually they just offer a job. maybe some courses here n there but sponsorship is not part of it..for now.. i think they still negotiating with mara or sumthing. not hoping much tho

firstly.. i have absolute no idea why did u give up on Being a pilot...

mind telling sharing with us the reason

who?

i think he's referrring to Winds. well, to some ppl, sitting on a small and stiff chair staring at some lcds for hours are...ermm..boring (haha..i won't JUST do that!). autopilot is doing most of the job, even auto landing approach on some aircraft. pilot are just backup system but those who become a pilot from an aircraft engineer would be a great advantage for them..especially if they're paid a lot. i would say pilot have bigger responsibility coz their decision especially at critical time affect the life of whole aircraft pax. imagine A380...

juz sumthing that i got. for those interested to be pilot and aircraft engineer with MAS. dateline is 31 march. comes with steel chain bond though...normal la

We get any allowance while undergoing the training program?

with mas program, i think u do get allowance...or is it only allowance? try give them a call.

wanna know more ??
i'm stidying aircraft maintainence diploma here !!!
this should be my final year !! hehe !!
pm me if u wanna know more!!

its a good carreer !!

yo ah fong u study where dude.... to answer lestat question yap if dca apllied easa it will be harder cause u need a degree in order to be approved in engineering with the accompany of ur license of course huhuhhhuh...but to tell u the thruth if dca really applied easa sure take a long time to addapt the real thing even the fully JAR they havent utilize it yet( as u know dca is following british ) hehehe from my question during the lwtr session the question only referng to ano n bcar is kinda odd why DCA still question this eventhough our aviation world here is fast addapting new rule n regulation .... by the way do u know that if easa appliesd the oral section that has been fear by all the LWTR candidated will be no more u just need to answer question if im not mistaken is MCQ even esei will not be there from i know

if u do appen to be an apperentice for mas or airasia they wil give u allowance cause u are now consider to be their staff huhuhuhh..anyway just saw in the paper about the 3 years program i dont know i think this is private not involving any airlines sponsorship

huhu, i just know yesterday when my mom call.
where can i get the form?
is it only once a year they offer?

just send ur resume dude their is no need of form i guess huhuhuhh just send hhuhh uu before this i have applied using resume for the pilot program huhuh but that is history huhuhh

yep,just send resume. dunno how many time they open for application. usually they are quite quiet about it. close relative with mas worker always know when they're opening. no wonder u can find a lot of family-tie worker there. no komen about that
