What it does not publish
- The academy is not recorded in our data as holding DGCA approval, so nothing on this page should be read as a claim that it does.
How to apply
- Step 1. The airline selects and the academy places, with the assessment fee payable in pounds before any of it, so the first money leaves before there is anything to accept.
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
Can I fly in India with a licence from Florida?
Not directly. You convert it to a DGCA licence in India afterwards, with its own examinations and paperwork, and that conversion is not inside this programme's published price.
Why is the assessment fee in pounds?
The academy's group is structured across more than one country, and the assessment is charged in pounds while the training is charged in dollars. For you it means two exchange rates before you have a place.
Is this a DGCA approved flying school?
Not in our data, and we will not imply otherwise. It is a named airline cadet partner that trains in the United States, which is a different thing from a DGCA approved Indian flying training organisation.
