Singaporean self-sponsored CPL holders - where are you?

[newfreighter]

oops! my apologies.

not cadets, i mean cpl/ir, frozen atpl holders without type.

this affirmed.

[ssangyongs]

do they accept malaysian?

[newfreighter]

try air asia if you are malaysian.

[ssangyongs]

u mean they dont accept other nationalities for FO position? i hold malaysian fatpl from mfa without type rating.

[Merlinrabbi]

SQC do accept malaysian with fATPL. just flown with one SO in the same situation as you from mfa.

[ssangyongs]

thanks!!! i shall inquire them about it..and about the SO you mentioned can u ask him how's life there?

any more details are appreciated.

[Merlinrabbi]

ssangyongs,

sorry, i dont think i'll fly with him again for the next 5 yrs ... didn't get his contact details too.

what other details do you need?

[ssangyongs]

i accumulated a little over 1000 tt mostly on single engine flying with brief stint at MH rural air service in sarawak, do you think they will accept me? how about a/c they operate and if they gonna finance my type rating how many years will i have to serve and if there's any chance to move to SQ mainline pax? I only need extra 400++ TT to get my full ATPL but i prefer it on airline type not just single engine flying.

and how's life in SQC? they said once you join cargo there's no turning back to SLF or pax

i also wonder SQ cadets that completed their training in down under does the company give them option wether to fly pax or cargo

thanks in advance

Cheers,

1. MFA - Malaysian Flying Academy.
2. FI rating from MFA is obviously M'sia DCA FI rating! Now, do you think you are able to instruct in Malaysia?

Thanks for the link thorny.

Maybe I should have been clearer. Will I be able to take a FI course in malaysia if I have a singaporean CPL? Or must I convert my license before I am allowed to take the course?

I recently know that there are so many CPL/fATPL holders here from Singapore and Malaysia.

I would like to hear anyone who can't make it to the mainstream or budget, and interested to fly in China, but with A320 type rating. I have a very good opportunity overthere to start off your career or looking for quick command upgrade.

Please PM me asap, as we are interviewing pilots now.

read post number 10 onwards <- [ click]

I recommend you to join Friendster.com. Not difficult to find members who are trainees/FI from MFA, HM, APFT, IAA and GGIFA. Many a times, I have my reliable sources from these people. If you want fast and reliable response, decorate your profile (of course with your picture) to show your sincerity and people will respond to your queries.

To answer you question, there are many Singapore CPL holders in HM. Some of them (FI in Malaysia’s Flying Schools) even have licence from MAAS too! And SIA doesn’t accept them.

All Malaysia’s flying schools train their FI for themselves. There is no such thing that they will train FI for flying clubs. Flying schools train FI (almost for free) but these newly graduated FIs must sign bond.

Despite flying clubs are facing shortage of FI, Malaysia DCA do not care! Malaysia DCA is quite “useless” in another point of view which DCA has no control to this (flying school making FI to sign contract).

To convert your licence, I am not answering you at the moment. Sorry.

Post your query in other thread. Not suitable here.

Hi,





first of all think it best that i explain a little of myself to u.. oh by the way.. i am a malaysian with singapore PR., 22 this year

,i am a poly grad from ngee ann.. and i got a ppl during the course of my studies... and i made in the the last round of interview and

i was ask to go for the medical check up .. and the day before i was suppose to go, the HR guy call me up and ask me to hold and wait...and i tried asking for a reason, but nothing was given

later they even send out a email telling me that they will contact me when there is a need for me to go medical..

so is that a rejection from SIA .. and i think i have been waiting for 1 and a half year now...

in the mean time i tried to do something instead of just waiting for the reply, i went to MFA for my frozen ATPL...

and i clear all the papers in 1 go..

currently i am on the twin program now.. should be able to finished my course in nov...

so now i am hoping to know am i being rejected from SIA?

will there be any chance for me to go for another round of interview again to proven myself..?

is there anything i can do now to help me in my career with SIA or any other airline or should i wait till i have the lic in hand?

oh ya one more thing.. i was offer by AIR FORCE, during my course and i made it through the tests and interview, and i was told if i am to join them i should give them a reply

by end of the year before my medical expire, should i still join them with my CPL?..



cheers,

happy landings

Have you read my post #211? Did you visit the hyper-link?
Read thoroughly please and figure out yourself.

1. You will need RM60K for the M.E. flying (35hours).
2. You need to do medical.
3. You may required to sit for extra papers.
4. After your conversion, you will then begin your FI training. Before or during FI course, you will be asked to sign a bond compulsory.

Just use the search engine in this forum! It is so useful to find out what you want.
