Indonesia To Institute Crackdown on Flying Schools
A 2018 audit shows deficiences at nearly half of Indonesia’s training institutions.

The Indonesian Ministry of Transport (MOT) has decided to embark on a crackdown on flying schools across the country over the next six months to identify those conducting poor-quality courses. According to MOT official Eddy Wijaya, the action will address the lack of skills and knowledge of pilots produced by some of the schools. “MOT feels the current situation has a lot to do with the quality of the courses being offered,” Wijaya said.
