I was told that it would be cheaper to do a single engine CPL in Australia, and then hop on over to Malaysia to complete the MEIR and Malaysian ATPL theory. Is this true? Anyone done this before?
What sort of conversion or extra flying hours do we need in this sort of scenario before we can continue the MEIR training in Malaysia?
I was also told that the Malaysian ATPL is more recognised than the Australian one - at least in the Asian region anyway. Any truth in that?
Finally, would a Singaporean with a Malaysian ATPL stand any chance of finding employment in Malaysia?
Thanks!
