hahahahah long live miat ...everybody instrested in joining this exiting job due send ur resume to airasia they are searching for trainess for their tame programme heheheheh their big boss for training is from miat and he is one of the master in avionic huhuhhuhuhuh

MAS is the last/worst company to work with but it'll be the first company you neeed to start with in the aviation industry involving civil aircraft.

since DCA is going EASA, so i'll talk about the law. EASA Part 66: Licensing.

if you have working experience with live aircraft for minimum of 5 yrs, or:

if you have working experience with live aircraft and proper training from an aviation industry (like MAS) for minimum of 3 yrs, or:

if you have working experience with live aircraft and training under Part 147 (Approved Training School*) for minimum of 2 yrs,.........

*MIAT is NOT an approved school.

..........you can apply for the B1 or B2 license, aka LWTR.


i wish all MIAT students will study hard and get their license. May god be with you.

apr?.... hmmmm... they are same level like mas trainee huh 

@jazzy939:from your words it seems only mas and apr that know how follow the requirements.... hmmmm..... correct me if i'm wrong

@Lestat: yes... one flur huhuhu got experience with powerplant class with him

get yourself a type rating + 7 years experience than can apply for the position (from what i heard they had man power constraint) .... thats what mr. gan klass q.a said

I was searching for contact numbers for MAS repair centre or related departments(mayb engineering/aircraft maintenance) n I stumbled upon this thread....

while reading through, n being an graduated mech. engineer myself feels tempted to join the flight not as a pilot but the aircraft engineer....... Ironically, after i read the part that decribes all the lengthy process n have start all over again, already shut off my steam valve.......

$$$ + respects, I can only blame myself making a wrong decision in the past, now pack that up n life continues.... its Monday again today 
p/s: btw, I need a lil help here, can anyone tell me the contact number or person for aircraft maintenance/repair centre?

sorry for my ignorance, i got some inquiry. well, why MH academy takes 5 years to complete the syllabus meanwhile MIAT does only take 3 years for the course?  How much allowance they paid when your training period(MH).

tahnks for the helpful reply jazzy & lestat....actually, my current job also requires hands-on in the begining, but now not so much as im working in the exec. lvl already

i really dun mind my hands dirty jz for u to know, coz theres a thing called degreasing soap aka SODA...........heheh

i believe mech eng. is valuable in aviation maintenance. say, your kind is needed in modification department. i dont have much experience in airliners coz i involved only in general aviation (heli, private jet) n im still new . just get anywhere within maintenance/engineering side of aviation n get your hand dirty a bit (work with aircraft, not at desk or workshop), then after 5 yrs go for lwtr

that's the way i can see it...for now. taiko2 pls add also.. stil cant find any aircraft taiko in here yet..

may i ADD some more info. i had to repeat this again, early his year, for the first time, MIAT students had sat for LWTR a few months after they grad. so u are wrong, jazzy. why? how? refer AN no 85. you are right tho that MAS and MIAT didnt use the same syllabus. they're almost

there are some difference between maintenance repair organization (MRO) and maintenance training organization(MTO). MAS, AA-> MRO. MIAT->MTO. ordinary people with zero knowledge of aircraft require 5 yrs experience before they can sit for LWTR. ordinary people with zero knowledge on aircraft who goes to MTO approved by DCA can sit after he finish his 3rd year. in miat, lwtr is your choice to take or not. at the end, u stil got dip. with MAS, jazzy has explained.

thanks alot, hope that AK's sponsorship will be a wise choice to me. Wondering how many years bond do they required 

guys, if i have a degree in mech,

wat r my options to go into aviation industry, particularly aircraft engineering witout startin rght from the beginnin ?

the balance not afraid... it just some of they already make their decision not to continue as aircraft engineer... but to prove others that what our diploma can do in various field (like NDT area e.g airfoil and avionics wokshop e.g honeywell and the other one, plus some work with airod and bla bla bla)

dont worry about miat status, lets the student and ex student worried about that, for me in this industry when you start is not the main problem, either in young age or late in the middle 30's. dont make it as an excuse not to do it (there are some mas trainee engg. who still not establish as an engg. even though already in the program for more than 5 years!) as jazzy939 wrote... there are some miat students that pass the exam in one sit! thats amazing for un experience claimed student to pass the exam in one sit! hmmmm.... if they can, you also can do it toda6866 ;p

where you start is not a problem... either with airlines trng school or an un approved claimed instituition.... at least one of your foot already in the industry....  but for me one major advantage to go for your diploma first is things like MAS MSS can happen again with no doubt.... at least with ya diploma cert ya can apply to go for others fields (like what i explain before.....) airline industries in m'sia is like pure aluminum, its hard but fragile, alloying it will add it strength!

untill next time- got an exam tomorrow

anybody is welcome to join aviation industry with whatever certification u got. technical services is one of the best way to join if u new to aviation coz u'll learn a lot about rules, process,etc..

jazzy dude, u work with eurocopter?

hmm... eurocopter same like air asia, GE and some others company... their hr really good in screening process..... they dont simply employ new graduates or spm holder as technichal stuff.... but lucky enough some of my juniors already been approached by them (eurocopter) while they working with their practikal.... hmmmm rezki masing2

and yes how 'small' the aviation world is...

do anyone here has the latest information about AK's trainee programme?

do they called you for interview? I'm still waiting their letter.

thanks ahaw

they only reply me by sending me email at the next day that i sent my application:-
well, should I give them a call for enquiry?

i should be patience i think
