Both of requirement for cadets as follows:

2. Possess a Diploma/Degree in Engineering or Science-related disciplines with CGPA 3.0 and above and at SPM level scored at least a B4 in the subjects mentioned above taken in one sitting.

* Good command of English and Bahasa Malaysia both written and spoken.

Should be able to successfully pass a medical examination up to a Class 1 standard conducted by a Department of Civil Aviation Authorised Medical Examiner (DAME).

* Minimum height of 163 cm (5ft 3in).

-Qualification :

1. Must possess Malaysian ATPL or Malaysian CPL/IR with Frozen ATPL and obtained a minimum Aviation English Level 4

3. Possess Diploma/Degree in Engineering or Science related disciplines with CGPA 3.0 and above AND 6 credits with a pass in Bahasa Malaysia in SPM

3. Candidates who has completed all ground school examination is also eligible to apply

4. Recommendation letter from flying school would be an added advantage

5. Fluent in Bahasa Malaysia and English

6. Medically and physically fit with good eyesight and not colour blind

i think the reason is..maybe..just maybe..

 

mas have more funds to provide training for their cadet..

so they still can accept a lot of candidates with diff results..

 

n maybe..they have better methods in selecting their cadets so its not only depends on spm result..

 

my 2 cents view..

The requirement more or less are the same. Now, there's no more credit in SPM since the introduction of open cert. So credit meaning C6 equivalent to B4...which doesn't make any different.

 

Anyway, Air Asia pilot must be able to count faster since their transit time is shorter

 

[Mohamad Ridzuan 0]

yeah.....

 

you're right..but i thinks.every pilot must be good n fast in calculation either with calculator or arithmetic

 

correct me if i'm wrong..

Now Everyone Can Fly....

 

I still remember Tony press interview... He has offered few seat to his employee in all sector an oppoturnity becoming a pilot. 1 guy that previously work to load and unload bags from plane, now is a pilot with AirAsia.

 

Acedemic qualification maybe needed, but in AirAsia maybe they need peoples with eager to becoming a pilot, as they may be squeeze to fly their plane. That is why I thing... one of the requirment is people with young heart

but you gotta know one thing for sure about MAS is that the screening process from A-Z is tougher compared to AA.
