As alluded by malaysiancadet and ikan terbang, it looks like the dross that we now get together with the dregs that remaim makes for some interesting times in the near future. The multiple choice type of questions in the Malaysian CPL and ATPL exams makes it very easy for people with superficial grasp of aviation subjects to pass or even score high. Going through the databank of questions and through rote learning of past questions makes passing a breeze. You wonder how many Malaysian skippers would still be F/Os had the CAA and DCA not switch to the present format. After the switch in the late 80's we suddenly have so may people pass; it sure was a Malaysia boleh miracle!
