Quote:The training will be done as "students" and the only license issued will be a CAAC MPL.
Quote: Leadsled is correct, foreign students normally only obtain a SPL in Australia.

If foreign students such as from China, don't obtain any AU pilot qualifications during their training on Australian territory, how can they legally fly solo, during cross country training under a SPL (student pilot license) ?

How would insurance cover this if there was a mishap?

Quote:
This is not limited to PR China, as I understand it there are now courses being conducted here under EASA approvals where the license finally issued will be an EASA MPL issued by the national authority of the sponsoring airline in the EU.

Where are courses being conducted for a EU MPL at the moment in AU?
Perth had JAA courses previously.
Don't know anyone in the JAA member states that has a MPL?
