i had attend to pilot cadet interview once.. 2003.. pass the phycomoto test.. very easy.. just like play game on a very bad condition computer.. basically must able to coordinate the move of your foot and hand...

then.. went to written test.. math (easy).. physic (easy).. english(hard- if I'm not mistaken...have to read 30 articles and answer 4 questions for each article in 1 hour..) .. IQ (don't have to rush.. you can take ur own sweet time to answer).. mostly there were answer already in the question paper (previous candidate conteng)...

i guess i failed during this stage... and most of the candidates are son of or uncle of a captain.. and some of them don't even went for phyomoto.. so don't harap sangat..

I went on 2003 too. U can read my post http://flydamnit.com/2006/06/26/about-mas-psychomotor-test/

i bet most of them can't answer you about type of hours log.. and also Typre-rating... and IR/ MeIR fatpl... can there??
and i think they would have no idea on the medical parts too..
i get most of them from www.pprune.org and www.askcaptainlim.com

if you jsut go Education fair and ask..

MANY MANY people would just think once you come out form HMA or MFA, you can fly..... well..... many people would not get the correct picture

Ask Capt lim is a great site.

Btw i uploaded a psychometric test example here http://www.flydamnit.com/downloads/ . I think i found it in askcaptainlim.

last week? actually date please smile.gif

Around 5th July. He applied last year btw. See how long the delay is. For those who applied, Good luck. thumbup.gif

Btw they are opening a new training school in (i dont remember, refer to my previous post. haha). MAS is definetly taking more cadets.

In addition to that, there are new airlines like FAX and Asmara Air (correct me if im wrong).

For dualshock: Last time for MAS, u need to have a really good report and recommendation from instructors to get the 737 if ure studying privately from MFA. Many have to go to the Fokker stages in Sarawak 1st. If ure under MAS cadet pilot programme, u will almost definetly get the 737.

But im not sure how it works now, because by 1st August, theres the Rural Route being given to AirAsia and everything. Last batch that was send for Fokker training, was send around March/April. Noone is certain whut will happen until the MAS/AirAsia thing is setteled now.

Wow.. so many discussion..
QUOTE(ikeken @ Aug 2 2006, 07:18 PM)
Well I've discussed with my father before and one of the reason he does not agree me to piloting is what will happen when I'm old. What is the maximum age to fly a plane ? A commercial plane. 50's ? or maybe 60s ? And usually what will happen to those retired pilots ? Do they still get financial support from the company ?
*

For Malaysia Airlines its 55.. Then u can appeal, if they find u fit enough u can go up to 60. Most airlines will go up to 60

U can just try to send your application anytime. No need to wait the ad in the newspaper. Some people apply after SPM. After u get your result.. Just send in your application again. Hehe.

Its easier if u make copies.

For MAS, last time it took me almost a year from sending in the application, psychometric, psychomotor, med checkup, until finishing the interview. Patience.

We can have command by simply saying i have control? even the captain is not agree?
I scare that the captain would fight back, since he dare enough to use the word 'Shut up' to his team mate.

When is ur interview? Well they might give some situation like : "There is clouds everywhere and u know the plane is descending into a hill. U tried to advice the captain but the captain says he knows what he is doing and keeps descending. What will u do?"

Then when u are about to answer, he will pressure u "4000ft" then "2000" "500"..

I wrote what i had gone through here last time. http://forum.flydamnit.com/index.php?topic=98.0 Theres a few more posts from the guys who went through the interview. Including my batchmate.

Just for educational purposes only. Didnt mean to post other forum's link here.

edit- Im aka Dusk there

Ya i received the same msg.

Btw if pilots fly like normal drivers there will be alot crashes. The average death in malaysia because of road accident is 16 death per day according to NST or The Star somewhere around 30th May.

Statistic from http://www.planecrashinfo.com says that the odds of being killed on a single trip 52.6 million to 1.

1. MAS can. I got a fren who did that. But im not sure if he actually admit he had eye surgery. Maybe he did. I dont know.

2. MAS does not hire pilots from the states. Mostly from Iraq and Indonesia only. (correct me if im wsrong)

3. Quite slim for MAS. I think only 1-3 people from a batch can get to MAS. Last time MAS used to put private students to the Fokker and their cadets to the b737 fleet. But now theres no fokker fleet. Not until the MAS Wings takes over the rural routes in East Maysia.
