wierd!!!!!!!...

Some1 please reply me .....

thank u

i dont see whats the point...y do u need a degree anyway?..im goin to KTU(Kolej Tentera Udara),there i'll be learning Diploma in Mechanical Engineering(Aeronautics)...and i think mas or airasia only gives sponsorship to a certain age limit if im not mistaken...so if u do ur degree,u will be above the age limit..so u will have to do ur license privately which will cost u another 100k-200kMYR..


(correct me if im wrong)

I think if you are going to fly anyway my as well use the money to get your flying license be it locally or overseas. You wanna try Massey University in NZ - they have the bachelors of aviation where u get your flying license as well as the degree. I am not sure how the licensing is done in malaysia but u wanna check the requirments to convert when u get back

well, I plan to study in Australia, Melbourne U which is next yr..
my mother wants me to get a degree b4 I sign up to be cadet pilot.

Ive got an interview next few weeks for the SIA cadet pilot position.

Where can i go for my eye test? Hospital can?

need advice...

Age limit is 26 if not mistaken. Should be enough for your to complete your degree I suppose.

max age for MAS cadet is 26y.o whn u go for ur psychomotor..
if somehow d process take more thn a year n by thn u already 27, no worries coz d age limit wont affect u anymore...

thres no different either u only hav spm or degree...IMHO,i think d best time to apply for MAS cadetship is right after ur spm...so by 19/20,ull b called a MAS pilot already...isnt tht great?

btw,Open University Malaysia does offer degree in aviation management..

Hi,
The age limit for pilot is 26. I am now 24, just finished my Degree in Engineering last August. I applied for SIA, and they shortlisted me for interview. I manage to get through their 1st and 2nd interview as well as the Medical. Nothing wrong with getting a degree first, I have got a Degree, but make sure you have an Engineering Degree I suppose. Always have a backup plan for yourself and you can handle the stress of the interview well. I met a cadet pilot undergoing his training in Singapore telling us that he finished his degree as well as master and went to work for 3 years before applying for pilot. As long as they feel that you are qualified, they will want you. But as I heard from the cadet pilots as well, the drop out rate from their training program is around 20-25%. If you have a Degree, even if you dropped out, at least you can find other alternative jobs.

i just received a letter from MAS yesterday ....
i ve to attend a psychomotor test on 2nd july next week....
can someone share ur experience here pls....

hello, im new to this forum =)

ive just graduated from some degree in engineering, and i would really really really want to be a pilot....

the question is, what else would someone want apart from driving big planes n seeing the world by being a pilot? i mean, pilot is all about being in the sky right? if the senior pilot ask then wat to answer ar? =)

oh btw, when's the intake for SIA and MAS?

it's my childhood dream, and my degree is just to satisfy my dad's wish....

Which course r u?

it is a fallacy that u need a degree to become a pilot nowadays. Last time yes...now, the airlines have options (hence cutting down their own internal training cost) to recruit flying school graduates (minimum entry SPM, 17 yrs old, and the usual normal thingy - not blind, handicapped, idiotic behavior, aids patient, loony outburst etcetc

Many airasia co-pilot/newly graduated pilots are from the training school in langkawi...remember the aasia 1st female pilot? she is only 19yr old! went there after her spm lah.

To enter the pilot training academy/school/center (alor star, langkawi, melaka, subang T3 and also overseas, u will need a minimum investment of rm200,000 course fee...if u have the money, u can be a pilot. Else, u join the very very long and competitive Q of being selected to be a bonded trainee pilot with an airline.

With the current rejuvenation of many airline cos (Aasia, emirates, qatar, other budget airlines), they tend to pinch qualified pilots (both captain and co-pilot) lah...

The best deal is of course to be selected as a trainee pilot and tend get bonded for X yrs and then u can go fly with any other airline in the world. Its a rewarding career.

good luck.

i've just received call from airasia for psychomotor test(stage2). anyone here have the experience mind to share with me?

Thank you

yo bulls10..u'r ere also ar? hahaha...im piphunter11 @ FDI

yes be a fighter pilot

yalo..
piphunter..any idea how's the test will be?

i wanna ask aa....how many stages of interviews are there? as in how many do i have to go through? including psychomotor tests

somehow next year i heard there wouldn't be any MAS cadet pilot and SIA requires STPM/A Levels...therefore i have to settle for STPM first as i wait for the next MAS cadet pilot...frankly speaking, which one does SIA prefer? STPM or A Levels?

i went for interview for SIA cadet pilot that morning, i got the rejection letter that night itself.

i remembered i overheared the HR talking to another trainee HR, cadet pilots are all 'handsome looking'. Cialat! No wonder i failed!

huhu like that also have...
