Hi,

Any thoughts for the Singapore Flying College and especially for Self- Sponsored Candidates ?

I'm thinking of applying for it but unsure where I might stand after graduating.

Regards

Hi,

I have self -sponsored friends in SFC now who have been approached by a certain LCC. I was told that opportunities are abound, however, as usual they were not promised anything until they graduate with their license.

A few self-sponsored contacts I've known here are already going to be SFC instructors when they graduate.

Maybe some self sponsored guys here would like to provide first hand info?

cheers!

Thornycactus .. why are you so negative mate? Any time someone posts for advice, it's always "nope, can not do" from you. May be this is a reflection on your own short comings with the aviation industry perhaps? Look at the glass half full, mate .. not half empty. :rolleyes:

Hi,

No one has been taken yet since they didn't promise the private cadets anything.

cheers

Hi hi,

Apart from applying to SFC through the legitimate way (i.e the private application form!) I don't really know if there's another way to it really. This guy I got to know in pprune signed up, got offered to be a cadet instructor and is trianing in australia now. There are also a few private cadets who are still studying or have just finished their ATPL studies in singapore but like i said haven't got any promise. Do they ever promise? No I guess!

I know a few people who got licenses from malaysia and canada who went to the then YFC to instruct, stayed a couple of years then crossed over to silkair. Maybe you would like to try this way if you already have a license?

I've got a while more to serve before I try! Counting down....

cheers
