Miat is using faa books but their modules follows bcar section L..So Far i am proud to say that a few of my miat seniors who went for their license have got through in one sitting with DCA Malaysia.. I dont agree with you that you said a diploma for Lae is useless.. to me its better you have a diploma because this secures your future and if you ever loose your license for some reasons you still have an diploma to back you up rather then 0 qualification without anything and just spm. For now Miat is working out for Jar 147 and they have changed all the modules according to EASA and improved the facilities .. beside that they have also purchased two diamond aircraft(live aircraft) and they are waiting for their new campus in subang which they scheduled to move in early 2009. I know that there are so many rumors and gossip being spread about miat but remember most of it is add up by some uncivilized people.. because they dont even understand the basic requirements on obtaining their license. There are some people who are talking about Miat being not approved because of FAA syllabus ... but i seriously tell they are dumb and would have never read the BCAR section L . As stated in section L .. you may use any books as your reference ..where it can be FAA. publisher or whatever as long you follow all the topics given in section L and also use the CAIP. For your information miat is following BCAR modules but the main reference books are jeppsen which is FAA published books. If miat is considered a useless institute then why there are foreign students from middle east, India, Sri lanka, Mexico, Vietnam,Thailand and Dubai studying in miat? I am not here to Defend miat just because i am studying here, but i just want to correct some people who are jumping into conclusion. Another thing unique about miat is it is a semi government institute recognized by the ministry of education Malaysia and under university teknikal Mara.

exactly Rohzhan ....he..he,....ehe..he.. anyways to Uncle Norman... its a very nice shot thanks a lot for sharing the pictures with us.

mind sung if you dont mind can snap a shot uh....??? thanks bro

a good 1 cpt

AK is a budget airlines and you cant expect a good service... you pay cheap . want good service then must pay more i guess.. i appreciate airasia for giving chance for people to fly at an affordable rate.

if you wanna go for aeronautics then check out at UPM or UTM.. if you want to do aircraft maintenance the try out Miat or any airlines like Mas or Airasia for apprentice engineering trainee

a very good one Liam i 100% agree with you... they buy a cheap ticket and expect a 5 star service ha..ha..LOL... if those fools think that they want special treatment then ask them to go board a private jet or a five star airlines.. but don't expect this on a ow cost airline..Those idiots don't know how to appreciate our low cost airlines for their services which is affordable giving chance for most of the people or nations to fly.

yea i think the A320 is a good deal.. maintenance wise it is easier compare to 737-300..

nope i did not give up my engineering at all... well ppl that i am taking is part time and just for fun and to understand the aircraft operation in a better way .. but for carrer i am still into the maintenance side Gavin.

well i am curentlly doing my private pilot licence ppl with subang flying club. FLYING IS REALLY FUN

hmm thank you wong.. i got the same answer from my instructor.. well blowing the pitot tube with ya mouth sounds logic too but i have never seen any pilots doing it before..he..he.. lol

hmm i am wondering how can i detect a bloked pitot static tube during a preflight check..?? is there any way?

The auxiliary fuel tank on 737 is normally located somewhere neare the cargo compartment.. but i am not sure if it is at the foward of aft cargo.

yup i am curentlly undergoing course in aircarft maintenance technology(Airframe and engines)A&C at Miat.

so u are goona be ma senior ... well well make sure u dont rag me ok....he..he..,

just trying to find ou if anyone is in the Air asia engineering trainee for batch 5 febuary intake 2008,well i am in that batch too, coz the called me up on 13 july and informed me that i am in... but till now they havent called me for the breafing yet.. dont know what is happening, anyone from batch 5 who has went for the breafing redi?

Retractable Landing: (NG only) Replaces the outboard landing lights on the earlier series. These are located on the fuselage just beneath the ram air intakes. The word is that they may be being moved back to their original position on the flap track faring due to excessive stone damage. Note Use of both of these lights should be avoided at speeds above 250kts due to excessive air loads on their hinges. Retractable landing light - NG

On the B737 i don't think they call the center display EICAS, if i am not mistaken they call it engine flight instrument system(EFIS).

I am finding out how to differentiate between the 73 classic and 73 NG? does any one have an idea how do you differentiate this two aircrafts?

yes that is 101% true. Mr seth K, well you should understand , in aviation, it is a very good practice to ask some one who knows the job or info,it is not a good practice to guess, as this could lead to serious disasters. i hope you understand, and pls dont get offended.

another one more diffrence between 777 and 330, have a close look at the pilots side windshield, on the b777 three is only four edges, while on the a330 notice that the pilot side windshield has 5 edges .

pherphas thats why in united states ,Lae,s are know as licenced aircraft mechanics . not engineer. for you info Lae is not registered under the malaysian engineers society.

hey bro thanks a lot man really appericiate that.

Dear friends ,on the 24th of march i am called for an aptitude test by airasia for thier cadet pilot program, well i just want to find out how would be the test like? i hope anyone of you can give me some ideas. thank you.
