Yeah... Try searching for the information for the cadet pilot intake through the airline website. I MAS or SIA will be very good one!

MAS cadet pilot selection take a long time.. While SIA is very fast...

For SIA, you can go to singaporeair.com and you can actually apply online.

It is advisable to apply for cadet programs offered by major airlines instead of taking the course privately.

Why?
Well my eldest bro and one of my sis is a pilot. And from my experience and what they have told me, it will be harder to find a job for those who take the course privately because the airlines already have their cadet training programs with cadets bonded to them, so why would they need you? =]

ok..let me make it this way...
thre are 2 private batches (about 15cadets/batch) graduated before my batch..d 1st private batch graduated bout 4-5 months ago..
n fyi,up to this date, only bout 6-7 cadets (from 30 cadets) already secured their places in airlines...n from tht 6-7 guys, only 2 guys got into major airlines...
so....wat do u think?

yeah...this is the main problem which faced by private cadet pilot..

before this i was planning to be a private cadet pilot as well, a lot of encouragement and discouragement came to me...there's advantages and disadvantages of being a private cadet and sponsored cadet. Being a private cadet....u dont need to go through all sorts of interviews which might slow down your steps....but u got to bear the risk of being jobless, which is kinda high. Unless u're very very rich...otherwise it's highly recommended to join cadet pilot program.

I just called MAS HR centre 2 weeks ago, from what i heard, although it's now past the intake's deadline, the cadet pilot program is still receiving application from people, just the chances of being chosen is low. I believe there's another intake on next year when the result of SPM result releases. And hopefully MAS wont stop the cadet pilot program due to expensive fuel price.

hi hasyir

can i know the eyesight requirement for cadet pilots?

i've heard many versions.. and i would like to hear it from a pilot =)

Thanks..

as long as ur eyesight can be corrected to 6/6, u can surely b an airline pilot..

regardless of my freaking high short sightedness and astigmatism? O_O

i am about 700 degrees short sighted and 300 degrees astigmatism

but i can see perfectly clear and normal with optical aids..

how about the requirements saying at least 6/60 in MAS and SIA website??
