Malaysia’s Aviation and Flying Schools
Nowadays, to seek for a flying academy in Malaysia has never been so convenience as yet, since more and more flying schools are taking root in Malaysia and providing quality flight training programs, therefore, basically there is no reason to cease one’s ambition from being a professional pilot by saying that fail to look for a well-equipped flying academy with experienced trainers, excellent learning syllabuses and a pleasurable study atmosphere.
Apart from offering airplane training programs for PPL (Private Pilot License), CPL/IR (Commercial Pilot License with Instrumental Rating), Frozen ATPL (Frozen Airline Transport Pilot License), many flying schools in Malaysia are also providing advanced training programs such as AFI (Assistant Flight Instructor) rating course and LOFT (Line Orientation Flight Training) course.
Moreover, other aviation related courses such as PPL (Private Pilot License) and CPL (Commercial Pilot License) training programs for helicopter flying are being offered as well by some of the flying schools. Thus, for the rest of this article, we would like to introduce 7 flying academies that are approved by the DCA and are strategically scattered in Malaysia, which all are providing first class trainings for future pilots.

Hallo there..
Im actually interested with this field.. I do want to be a pilot..
But the question is, is there a higher education in aviation field in Malaysia??
I mean not just as a pilot and get the licence.. But more than that. Such as Diplomas or bachelors that provided in any universities in Malaysia? Especially in science/flight aviation??
I do found 1 in private ‘U’ in Malaysia but I cant find a lot of information especially its requirements and how to start. What I found is just a Bachelor Of Flight Aviation with collaboration with USA higher flight education. But I could’n find Diploma In Science/flight Aviation in any University in Malaysia.
May U help me to find one?? Please??
I do ask many questions to diffrent peoples, but Im so sad they never reply me.. I hope you are also not do the same thing..
Thank You.
@Qiena
We have done several researches on your questions. And perhaps this webpage, http://www.apft.edu.my/content/view/49/100/ would be the one you are looking for.
Thank you for sharing your questions.
Best regards
Alvin Nyau
HI, I Just want to enquire whether is there any chance of beeing an aircraft engineer cum pilot?Are there any possiblities?
Dear Remo,
Learning is always good no matter what you learn. You can take double degrees at a time, but you’re probably unable to take two jobs at a time. We are unsure about whether there’s actually a job with requirement of these two fields. You should really check it out by calling any of those airline companies.
Thank you for your valuable comment.
Alvin Nyau.
hey may i ask,do i have to go to college then to the flying school or do i apply for the flying school right after i have gotten my results for my SPM examinations??![[=::)]](http://www.university-malaysia.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif)
Dear ken,
In order to apply for entering any flying schools (become a pilot), you can do so right after you obtain your SPM results. Colleges’ qualifications will not be required upon application.
For more accurate and precise information, please kindly refer to this post Qualifications and Requirements of Becoming a Professional Pilot.
Dear Alvin,
Is there a minimum requirement in SPM results in order to participate in the course?
What are the estimated fees that we need to pay in order to obtain “pilot license” for commercial airlines company?
200k? 300k?
Cheers,
josh
Dear Joshua
Yes, there are certain requirements that must be met in order for you to participate in any flying courses, if you are planning to obtain a CPL which is Commercial Pilot License, your SPM result is required upon enrolling. For more accurate and precise information, we strongly recommend you to refer to this post Qualifications and Requirements of Becoming a Professional Pilot. This post shall answer most of your queries.
The tuition fee may be vary from time to time, if you were asking about the tuition fee for obtaining a CPL, assumably will be around RM210,000.00. For your information, a CPL usually will be issued along with IR which stands for Instrumental Rating. You can refer to this post for the explanation of IR, Qualifications and Requirements of Becoming a Professional Pilot.
Thanks.
to Qiena,
2 be a pilot, theres no need a dip or deg, its just a license.
when you enter flying school,you just learn 2 get the licence, same like you take your driving licence, no need to take diploma or something else 2 be a pilot, BUT,
IF you’re interested in diploma or degree in aviation,
theres one university in malaysia that provide it, it is not a pilot training, but, aircraft engineering, more information, http://www.uniklmiat.com.my,
if you hav more questions 2 ask bout aircraft engineering, this is my email, b4 i enter there, i also dont know bout it until somebody tell it 2 me, thats why i want 2 help anyone who’re really intersted in aviation, inshaaallah, i will help you

Thank you for your valuable comment. We will consider to publish an article encompasses information that you’ve given to us.
i wan to be a pilot…![[=:(]](http://www.university-malaysia.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/yahoo2.gif)
i’m so intrested with this corse..
but..is there any scholar for me?
my family not rich…
i do have the problem with the fees…
cn i have a scholarship to enter the flying academy???
plez help to guide me to achieve my ambition
Salaam
dear shafiq,
actually i dont know so much about how 2 be a pilot, bcoz im not a pilot, im just future aircraft engineer, anyway, i’ll try my best 2 help you. what i know is, if you have a good result in your spm, you can get the scholarship,
However, you may try to contact the institutes listed above and enquire more about their scholarship offers. dont be shy, just call them and ask everything that you want.
1 more, if you are really want to be a pilot whithout need to worry about the scholarship, i suggest you to enter KTU, (KOLEJ TENTERA UDARA) if you enter there, no need to worry about the fees bcoz it is all scholarship from the government, 100%, but that is military pilot, n working with the malaysian army if im not mistaken, just until your age is 40, after that, you will retire unless you’re the army that hav a high rank, you can continue working with the government.
BUT, after 40, you can stop working with the gov n work with the commercial airlines, i know this bcoz i hav i friend, his father (ex-military pilot) is a commercial pilot now. you can try search on the web about ktu n how to enter there
what are the different between Diploma in Aircraft Maintenance Technology (Manufacturing), Diploma in Aircraft Maintenance Technology (Composite), Diploma Of Engineering Technology In Aeroplane Maintanence… and which one is better???
#diploma in aircraft maintenance technology(manufacturing) – you will learn how to maintaince the a/c (aircraft), the fuselage, the engine, n so on. n you’re specialist in manufacturing aircraft, means, you can also work with the aircraft company that producing the a/c parts,
#diploma bla3 (composite) – same, you will be train as a skilled worker in maintaining the a/c,(fuselage, engine, dan yg sewaktu dengannya) but you’re also a specialist in the painting of the a/c fuselage(a/c body)
#diploma bla3 (avionics) – you will be trained as a skilled worker in maintaining the a/c – just electrical n wiring systems in a/c, the risk to die is the lowest compared with the 2 above, bcoz maintaining the engines is very dangerous n risky.
anyway, which one is better, you the judge. =)
diploma aircraft maintenance technology(MANUFACTURING, COMPOSITE N AVIONICS), that is DCA(department civil aviation malaysia), which means, that diploma allows you to work in malaysia only,
but,
diploma of engineering techology in (aeroplane maintenance, helicopter manintenence, avionics maintenance)that one is EASA syllabus n standard, which is all worldwide use it, which means that you can work worldwide with your qualification. >>this is new course in uniklMIAT
lpas habis diploma is there any scholarship untuk kite smbung degree kt luar negara???? or memang kene sambung kat miat trus???
I have completed ATPL Technical exams (CAA). I have 30 hrs of flying in HPT-32 (single engine), 60 hrs of flying in Dornier-228 (twin engine) and 1660 hrs of flying in Y-12 (twin engine). Total 1750 hrs. I am expecting to do my flying test in a twin engine aircraft. In Sri Lanka it is too costly. Is there anyway to complete my flying test at your academy. How can I get the rates of your aircraft. please let me know.
Duke
ada, mmg ada, tp result kenelah cemerlang, tp tak taulah, dengar2 sekarang susah skit gov nak tanggung bg biasiawa untk oversea, sbb kos dia sngt tinggi, lbih kurang 700.000 kalau nak sambung degree kt oversea, lgpun kat miat dah ada degree(cost-80,000), n degree kt miat 2 same jer syllabus die dgan kt oversea 2, cuma yg berbeza lecturer n environment. kalau masuk miat, mmg dpt pantuan mara so bila ada lepasan miat yg nk sambung oversea pn mmg mara yg tanggung, biasanyalah…tp yg mcm aku ckp td lah, skrang mcm susah la nk dpt scholarship sbb sku dengar mara x ckup duit, tapi walaumcmmnpun, chances utk smbung oversea mmg ada….

for those who want to be pilot, apply with MAS. once you are accepted, you will be sent to one of those four flying schools above.
if you apply from that school, you need to prepare the fee yourself

Good day,
I have done a few research regarding pilot schools especially in Malaysia and Australia. I find that in Malaysia, MFA and HMA are quite good, and i find Basair in Australia is quite tempting as well. Currently i’m doing Mechanical Engineering and will be graduating soon in June. I wish to either further my studies in either aircraft maintenance engineer or a pilot. Could anybody give me a few tips regarding how to choose pilot schools and how do i get in contact with them. Thanks
I’m looking for a part-time PPL lesson, say training or attending the classes over the weekend. Please advice me what to do.
@Simon Liew
Hi there, you may have to pay a visit or personally contact to intended flying academy. Usually it is possible to do so and can be worked out, as long as time can be arrange nicely between trainee and trainer. This is due to PPL is mostly obtained by individual who wishes to fly privately and to take up flying as a hobby, therefore the arrangement of training period can be more flexible, compared to CPL and ATPL lessons which are usually conducted in more of formality.
Hi am outside Malaysia but in Africa and i just wanted to know how i can gain addimission to the aviation and flying school when the only thing i have now is a high school diploma… and how do i go about it?
@ leslie
In Malaysia, to join any flying schools, a diploma is actually more than enough, if you want to know more about it, please visit to Qualifications and Requirements of Becoming a Professional Pilot.
To ensure your qualification is eligible, we advise you to seek confirmation from the DCA, Malaysia, whether your educational qualification is approved by the DCA’s standards or not.
