MAS pilots are among the best in the world.
Leave the American pilots(especially..i think those low budget crappy airlines) wayyyy behind in terms of handling the aircraft in any given situation.
We are more trained to handle things manually rather than just switch everything to autopilot.
thats why emirates, korean airlines tried to reqruit msian pilots.
Ooo yeah.
MAS still doesnt accept female pilots.
and i think for the first maybe 10 years...u will find this career to be very interesting and exciting..blah blah blah.
but things get stale.
u leave home. eat not so decent food (home cooked meals will still be the best). come home. sleep/rest. then it's time to fly again.
the perks include the 'free' around the world trip.
and im sure the b747 captain whose salary is around 60k is not working for our local airline as there is no farkg way they will EVER pay u that much.
at most will be less than 25k monthly(after approx 25yrs of working).
BTW, my post is solely based on my own experience and opinions.
im sorry if i have offended anyone.
