Yes, you are right.

I have not heard anyone converting to EASA-66 unless one wants to work in the EU but why would you?
The BIG BUCKS are being paid in the middle east...

Still there are no rule saying that you can't, therefore its up to the regulatory body to evaluate and accept (with conditions, of course) your conversion application.

sifus, if i want to work in common companies such as MAS, AA, SAE, GE Aviation. which license is most demanding? easa part 66 or dcam part 66. care to share ur suggestion?

A licence with several type ratings and lots of experience!
(you asked 'most demanding')

sorry, i mean which license has the better chance to get the vacancy opportunity if i want to collect my work schedule? dcam part 66 or easa part 66?
just want to make sure my decision is correct.

my aim is i want to work at MAS, AA, GE Aviation or SAE. (LOL)

The answer is pretty much obvious...

i dont get it la.. these licenses really confusing me now. which i have to take. haha

work in malaysia, take malaysian license. easy.

TQ thesun!

take dcam,,, then when u free take easa lor...if lets say u go to nilai college, and they only offer u easa,if u mati mati really want to , take it... then later submit ur workschedule and then later convert to dcam also...

in the end u want dcam, so y bother with the easa if u want to work in malaysia... unless ur thinking is dunwant to take twice haha

Well said yorkhan!

Just DCAM part 66 results is abit slow and did't tell you what marks you get, failed or passed ,

hello there, guys.

Is it possible for me to venture into this career with mechanical engineering degree and minoring aerospace subjects as electives?

Yeah start from zero.

dun worry ur not the only one

so that mean i can't really apply the job? I have to take degree all over again?

to become an LAE. you need to take license. professional license. the License in Aircraft Maintenance Engineer. google it to know more.

what can i say is, with your degree and everything and you really want to be come an LAE. you need at least 2-3 years before getting yourself an LWTR without the type rating. this of course if you join any approved maintenance school. if you join non approve or taking the exam yourself, the numbers will be 5-6 years before you can get the LWTR.

it can be done

Yeah, for fast thread go UK, AST, Glamorgan, Bistrol..

Oh Yeah! Just need time

had a friend, was working with established building company as QS,, quit at 26, then join as trainee...with 600 a month... suck it up for 5years, couldnt established... so cabut to other company and now and lae

Hi sifus, I got some question here as for the Aviation Australia(AA):

1. After finishing study at AA, does ‘freezed’ EASA Part 66 License will be issued or only training certificate only.

3. If license will be issued, which National Aviation Authority (NAA) is the issuance authority for their EASA Part 66 License. Is it Australia NAA or UK?

4. If license had been issued, does those issued EASA Part 66 License can be converted to Department of Civil Aviation Malaysia (DCAM) Part 66 License in Malaysia by taking AirLEg and Human Factor only?

My first answer:

1.training cert..if u did OJT,part 147 recognition.

2.no license will be issued upon graduation.

3.Yes with restriction,by sitting those 2 module.

2nd:

AA tuition fees is freaking expensive to compared with Bristol.Tuition fees alone and OJT cost me about 180k.while bristol *this is from my colleague* about 120k inclusive accommodation and pocket money.

If bumi,try to apply Mara loan to AA.

Hope that helps.Good luck.
