Be careful guys
Just a gentle warning from a person who has some experience with MPL.
Before anyone accepts the latest "offer" be very careful. The basis of MPL is to have an airline that takes the graduates - look at the ICAO and JAA websites on MPL. Look also at the implications for the Sterling Airlines MPL cadets who have been made redundant and can not now go to another airline without expensive re-training. (recent Flight International).
I do not know what the Philippine ATO and regulators are accepting but every major regulator is tying the MPL to specific airline training SOP and LOE plus subsequent performance monitoring. Without an airline the MPL is of little or no use. As a previous post said - a CPL/ IR does not guarantee a job but is at least universally recognized.
It is apparent that Clark does not have an unblemished record of being truthful so beware an obvious tactic aimed at generating cash flow!
