What it does not publish
- The company's page does not say where the flying takes place.
- There is no published breakdown of the total into ground school, flying and type rating, so what the price buys is stated only as a whole.
How to apply
- Step 1. Selection is the airline's, and placement with this company follows it, with the assessment fee payable to sit the assessment itself.
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.
