Hi,
I just got back from the dreaded Tekong, boy did I miss alot of juicy stuff !
Regarding licence conversion. I emailed the Flight Ops Section and this was the latest reply from them, 3mths ago. I hope it still stands, besides if you need further clarification do call them up.
Regarding your query, we will convert all valid ATPL from any ICAO contracting
states to a Singapore equivalent, provided the applicant fulfill the following
requirements :-
(a)Pass a Singapore Class 1 medical with a CAAS Designated Medical Examiner
(b)Pass the Singapore Aviation Law paper
(c)Pass the Human Performance & Limitations paper
(d)Pass a flight test with a CAAS Flight Examiner
There are more requirements to it, you'll have to call them up. This is just the basic !!
Applicants will be required to come in person to CAAS Flight Operations Section,
during normal office hours, with his original licences, medical certificate and
all flying logbooks (certified by the relevant authorities) for verification
purposes. All the above requirements must be completed (*) months prior to the
issue of the Singapore ATPL. All flying clubs which follows ICAO flying
requirements are acceptable for the conversion. CAAS have yet to approve any
flying schools which is 'recognised' for ATPL conversion. For further
information you may wish to contact Ms -- at tel : (65) 5412482 or fax (65)
