there you go. somebody who has broad experience in DCA malaysia has spoken. it sucks, especially for me as a Semester 3 Avionics student. it's too late to quit and jump to other training organization right? all i do know right now is, to complete my logbook (during sem 5 OJT, during short training with any company that is willing to take me for 1 week mid sem break or 1 month semester break and of course, pray that miat stop b****ing around. lol)

camel. Do not be despair.
Finish your course. Pass ALL your required modules(13 for Cat B1.1) then get into the industry to gain that live aircraft experience for your license grant..
There is still hope for you yet. Trust me.

yeap, that is what i'm planning to do.

the bold part : this is what i'm lost. if i wait for MIAT QA to call me to take the exam, god knows how long it's gona be. but if i submit my application for exam module directly to DCA, they say i won't be considered as candidate from MIAT which means if MIAT does get the ATO status from DCA in future, i won't get the privilege of having to work for 2 years to get experience before i can submit my license application, i have to work 5 years instead. am i correct?

Unfortunately, you are correct!
What you and the guys need to do now is pressure the management. Write letters, lots of them.
Talk to the Dekan (my senior and friend).. En. Hyder, also a friend but he gave up on that QAM.. or Prof. Zahir.

Yeah I plan to call DCA after i get my SPM results.
But right now,all I can think about asking them is
-which suitable place study and take license
-fee structures
-benefits and cons of the institute
-minimum practical years have to work before can take license exam

Any other things I should add on?

in Malaysia,go for APR or Dilog.

Its not that i dont want to share,but i just dont know how to really teach like lecturer.facing the student,knowing them,classroom environment,etc2..but if theres someone ask anything,i will try my best to explain it..it feels good when u can share something with others.. hehe

i just calm my mind...my friend go pop up this prob for me ty

You're telling me that you're only interested in the engines and the hydraulic system?

other part ok lar...but i tot we need to choose category ?

That is correct, and do you actually know what are they?

dunno... please guide me sifu

i think you should re-read this thread from page 1.

Correct. It's on page 1!

This? i quite confuse...so if i go LAME program@ APR i have to choose how many? Coz i tot type rating is only for aircraft ex: type rating on Boeing 747 ?

You're still unclear of the subject matter, needs and requirements.
Please take your time to read from first page, slowly.

Mr jazzy please correct me if i'm wrong,
in simple words,
Type rating = only given to you after you complete basic license by the company QA.. if you were to work on B747, then u'll get B747 type rating.. dun worry this much, still a long journey to reach here..

I don't know how APR operates, but if students are given the options to choose their own trade, for example you wanna choose 1.1 Aeroplanes- Turbine, some modules or exams u take are the common/same modules with other trades, only a few are unique to 1.1 Aeroplane-turbine

@jazzy939 and other sifoos.


I want to know about getting a B2 license from CAA UK. No, don’t ask me why or what not, I was just simply doing research about getting license there. it' my curiosity and I could not find it at 1st page either, the link is not working.

Okay, here it goes :

I want to know about Part 66 License from CAA UK. Specifically, B2 (Avionics). These are all the documents I’ve read (yeah, sem break ma, got a lot free time to read ). I might have missed or misunderstood something. So, please do correct me.

The Engineer’s License Guiding Documents :
http://www.caa.co.uk/docs/33/ELGDBook_07_WebVersion.pdf
Section E, Category B2 License :
http://www.caa.co.uk/docs/177/8355%20Section%20E_07.pdf

From my understanding, to get B2 license from CAA UK as a self starter applicants, not ATO students and etc, these are all I need :

1. Finish Module (all 12 of them, in Malaysia I guess we need to take them at British Council priced at 40 pounds each or RM350 per module if I’m not mistaken )

2. The minimum age to hold a Part-66 license is 18 years. In order to certify, the minimum age is 21.

3. Category B2 applicants who have not attended a part-147 approved course of training should have at least 5 years practical maintenance experience on operating aircraft. Experienced engineers within the UK, such as Skilled Workers, Armed Forces, Coast Guards and etc and these where I should get my logbook signed.

Is there anything else that I might have missed or misunderstood sir?

so jazzy what u mean the LAME program only give me a basic license? after start working @ any company only got specific aircraft part and different plane type rating?

any TAME programme at ATO can only give you a basic license known as License Without Type Rating. This is of course, you must have passed all required module exams for your license category(B1,B2 and etc), complete all the work schedule (logbook) in 2 years (since you're in ATO) first .

once you get the LWTR, the company who hire you will send you for the type rating course. if i'm not mistaken, with just LWTR, you can do the task with no problem but you must be observed by another LAE who has the type rating for the aircraft that you're working on.

i might have been wrong somewhere, please do correct me.

i dont understand ur this part >>
