DSO allowance shld be same as DSTA. It's more than just well covered.

first month attachment 12k (u need to pay lodging and food and transport yourself)
sec month 9k
thir month to 1 year 6k/month

And they send young engineers (3-4years experience) for these attachment.
If you go for one year, come back can pay a car in full.

They are not "prone" to OT. Rather, it happens only when ur project is near towards the deadline and u have to make sure everything is correct.

usually is counted as 0. unless you are a regular last time.

ntu grad 5 years aviation exp 2nd lower + ns, join dsta air system engineer, can request/expect how much basic salary?

5 yrs private sector aviation exp, 2nd lower with NS, NTU mech degree,

if join DSTA as air system engineer, how much salary will be offer/or should be requested?

But it happen quite often i would say. From Nov to Jan, i have been noticing that their DSTA building were brightly lit.

if they are paid well, they are expected to work hard too. Well, that's fair
