      Sorry for late reply... For your information, Part 66 is for AMEL issues which related to Aircraft Maintenance Engineer License which Part 147 is related Approved Training Organisation... Like that, do you understand?

      Hello Antor,

      1. Yes, they are equivalent. The only difference is DCAM is for who works in Malaysia and EASA is for whole Europe and middle east countries.

      2. It depends on the NAA each countries. I am not sure about it.

      3. Currently, DCA Malaysia is NOT recognized EASA part 66 in Malaysia. So, it is not possible to convert EASA part 66 to DCAM part 66 license. Otherwise, I am not sure about from DCAM to EASA so you can ask this question to EASA as they may answer your this question.

      Thank you.

      The thing is sometimes the rules and regulation is abit diff. Even lesen memandu pun not all country bole convert cuz the way they operate is abit diff. So there is no such thing as convert. But u may check the requirement needed to have caam license as an EASA license holder. Sometimes they change the requirement and rules.

      Hello,

      Sorry for late reply... For your question, I am not sure about it and I think you should DCA Malaysia that side for this question. From my own opinion, I think you can do like that but I am not very sure.

    Hello there, I need an advice on how to start my career, I am diploma holder (Helicopter Engineering) at Unikl Miat and just finish my 2 years B1.3 EASA Programme at the same training organization this July. I have completed 9 modules and 3 still pending. And, recently DCA stated that EASA no longer can convert to DCAM, so should I focus on working outside Malaysia? I need an advice how to start my career as I am very desperate at the moment. Thank you 🙏

      Hello,
      For answer your question, I can give two options for your advice. First, what is your plan for start your career? In Malaysia or work abroad? If you plan to work in Malaysia, I suggest you can find those companies that still accept EASA license, get your EASA license first and then proceed with the DCAM license since local aviation industries are accepting DCAM license holders due to our DCA Malaysia's policy. Second option is like you state in your question, work outside Malaysia. For this option, since you are getting to complete all EASA modules, so it shouldn't be a problem for you to gain working experience and collect working schedules if you get to work in one of EASA approved maintenance organisations at overseas. For my conclusion, I can said that it is your choice to choose your path yourself and I just can give an advice to you. I hope you can get what you wish to get. Thank you.

      Sorry for late reply. For my suggestion, you can get it in Universiti Kuala Lumpur Malaysian Institute of Aviation Technology (UniKL MIAT). It is Approved Training Organisation (ATO) in Malaysia and accept international student. You can search for this university. Thank you.
