  Anyone tried getting a Private Pilots License from one of the flying schools in Johor?
  
  How long would it normally take?
  
  Im kind of interested.I could not get in the YFC here so im thinking of Johor.
  Any advice?

  hiZ. i've heard that the nearby airport just after the second link does have aircraft for rental. you might be able to find a school there.
  
  u could do ya PPL in singapore as well. there are private companies that do it here. they're located at Seletar Airport. think the name is Singapore Flying Club. but u gotta be loaded to fly with them. think its some 30k to get ya ppl.
  
  generally in YFC u can get ya PPL in about 9months. RSAF's "PPL" training does it in 3months (its a gauge based on the syllabus covered and is not an official license)
  
  hope its helpful.

  There is Nusajaya, a place to learn to fly microlight, that will get you a RPPL, which you can later upgrade to a PPL on a GA aircraft.
  
  Then there is Senai Airport for GA aircraft flying, you can get a PPL there.
  
  look up the following website.

  The club is owned by Gucharan Singh, a Singaporean.
