@ Yantz - No, I am not training with STATA at this moment though I am keeping options open.
Perhaps another reason why STATA offers the CASA licenses is that CAAS requires all CPL/ATPL holders to gain employment with a 9V- operator. So I have a question here, can a private candidate choose to train with SFC and not be bonded(i.e. not gain employment with a local operator) and hold the CAAS CPL?
@ singapore_flyer - Exactly. One of those catch-22 situation which STATA should address in their bid to gain CAAS FTO status.
As for MPL.
The MPL route has been discussed at length on threads in the "Wannabes" forum ("Wannabes".. heh, that's me!) - it has its fair share of speculations, misconceptions, supporters and detractors.
