Actually, all the malaysian-based academy are about the same.
1. one of the main problem is the lack of QFIs in the whole of malaysia.(new DCA rulling which prohibits AFI course in flying club certainly doesn't help) . Most of the good QFI does not intend to be an instructor for long. many of them Move on to the Shiny Jets once they collect enough hours. Thus, forcing all the local schools to take newly-qualified inexperienced AFI from overseas.
2. Students themself. Most new students, regardless of MAS / AK / Private have no passion , pride , ..etc.etc.. in what they are doing or what they're about to do. I've seen a lot of MAS cadets taking their once in a lifetime opportunity for granted because They know that MAS wouldn't drop any cadets once they signed the contract. Knowing this, they couldn't be bothered about the training, because whatever happens, MAS will still keep them even if they have to re-sit the ATPL papers 5 times(it happened)
As for the privates, There are only a handful of those who genuinely wants to be pilot. Others join the flying school because they are too rich and don't know what else to do in life.
If you really have to study and train in Malaysia, Choose a school with the least DELAY.
