Some (very few)young new blood are terribly good at what they're doing.. There are also horror stories too!

Well I got my 4 stripes when I was 28, how about that?

Only 3

I have Republic of Ireland's LWTR, CAA's LWTR and DCAM's LWTR(with one type rating endorsed). All under BCAR Section L.

so i have heard that with EASA PART 66, u can work with AA, SIA,Emirates n all.. but with DCA is only MAS.. Does that means EASA is better?

Is it recommended to take EASA Part 147 instead of Part 66 since Part 147 is recognized and u only gotta do 3 years minimum work experience to qualify for d license

If im not mistaken,there are other country that accept DCA part 66 license.

It depends,where u want to work ? in which country do u think they will hire u ? I did Part 147 in mecha n avionics,so i got the cert of completion and recognition(because i did the OJT,if not only completion)..DCA didnt accept the cert,in order for me to get dcam license,is to do whole exams again..so the best way for me now is obtain the caa license,then only convert to dcam by sitting human factor and air legs.

The DCAM license is obviously recognized in Singapore, Brunei, Hong Kong, Australia, New Zealand and the Middle East.

For all intents and purpose, honestly where do you wanna work?
EU? Forget it. The best paid employers are in the middle east eg. Emirates, Qatar etc.. Singapore is actually a good place to work.

Now, no one would employ you with just a non type rated license. You must have experience in the type.. no less than 5 years, preferably 7 or more.. now what does that mean?
You have to start locally, ie Malaysia then after getting the necessary type ratings (B777, A330s, etc are essential) then work your way 'out'..

And this is generally true.. to practice/work in any country, you must convert your recognized license to the local license issued by the local regulatory body by sitting and passing, of course, their air regulation examination(written). You may be required to sit for an oral if they so required, airlegislation and or technical. A pre-requisite to that is a letter of offer/appointment letter for your employer and working visa.

Nothing at all. I am also disturbed by the sudden interest with EASA-66 license and some local higher learning institutions riding on the band wagon to make a good quick buck.

Bear in mind B1 & B2 EASA-66 license is a MECHANIC's LICENCE for LINE MAINTENANCE CERTIFICATIONS ONLY as oppose to DCAM's Part 66 B1 & B2 which is an ENGINEER's LICENSE, hence the differences in the syllabus..

I hope you're clear in this. Ask your En. Adnan lah!

NIlai's grad; Yup.. the reason why they will be 'stucked' at that level for quite some time...

You can always take EASA PART 66 EXAM from CAA UK. And by this time next year it is possible to complete 12 modules (avionics) if you take 2 modules a month. How far can you reach to become an LAE as a self starter candidate is unknown lah.

2 mod/month = remembering the questions and answers......

Do you have specific questions or concerns?
