Inside the figure, and outside it
Inside Published
- 200 flight hours in total, 185 hours single engine and 15 hours multi engine with instrument rating, and about 350 hours of ground school covering the DGCA subjects and FRTOL(R) and RTR preparation
Outside Published
- Accommodation, which is mandatory and billed separately at Rs. 20,000 per month with three months payable in advance
- Bharat Kosh (DGCA) payments are settled by the candidate
- The package covers only the inclusions listed and is priced for 15 to 18 months from enrolment
What it does not publish
- The club's own course page carries a course snapshot and no price at all, so the only published figure lives in a brochure PDF.
- The increased hourly rate that applies beyond the eighteenth month is not published, so an overrun has no published cost.
Where this sits
8th lowest of the 17 schools that publish their own licence fee. The middle fee is ₹54,85,050.
How to apply
- Step 1. Apply through the site, then pay the Rs. 2,00,000 registration fee, which is entirely non refundable; the club processes documentation and transfer from a current FTO only after payment
Whichever school you choose, the licence needs a DGCA Class 1 medical, a DGCA Computer Number and five theory papers from the DGCA exam syllabus, practised in the DGCA question bank and under a timed mock test.
Common questions
Do I have to live on site at Gujarat Flying Club?
The brochure describes on site accommodation with meals as mandatory and bills it monthly, with three months payable in advance. It is published as a separate amount rather than folded into the course figure, so budget it as an addition and not as an option.
Is the minimum age really twenty one?
The brochure says twenty one at the start of the programme, which is well above the seventeen to eighteen the regulator works to and above what the club's own course page implies. Both are on this page. Confirm it with the club directly, because it changes whether you can apply at all.
What happens if I leave part way?
The brochure is explicit. The registration amount is entirely non refundable, a voluntary withdrawal or a transfer to another organisation carries a percentage deduction from all instalments already paid, and unpaid amounts attract interest compounded quarterly.
