Hello
I was interested in doing self funded A320 type rating. Which institutes are good. Please share your experiences and suggestions.

Thanks

How about you start by giving some pertinent info? Do you need FAA, EASA? You can't just write a post like yours and expect a good answer.

I see from your previous posts your a 200 hour wonder. Try doing some research before you post anything else.

@pilotchute

I hold DGCA (India) cpl/ir. I have 200 hr total time with multi-engine IR. I seek to do type rating from a DGCA approved institute as per DGCA's syllabus. Which briefly is like
• 32 Hours of Ground School(consists of Jet induction training)
72 Hours of Ground Training(consists of systems, operational, CRM, M&B, perf, preflight inspection)
• 20 Hours of Fix Base Simulator(consists of cockpit familiarisation etc)
• 34 Hours of Full Flight Simulator(consists of PF,PM, circuits & landings, LOFT, Checks)

Before starting this thread i used the search option which returned nothing specific.

@too_much
Thanks for posting. But i intend to do on a full flight simulator.

pprune, google, yahoo all show up with nothing?

Guess not many candidates must do a DCGA approved A320 course... perhaps search for the 737? :ok:

@schweizer2
Google, yahoo etc show up many results. As each one is doing business.

To get genuine replies from experienced people is the reason to post and discuss on a forum.

People gain experience by working their way up the chain.. You are trying to buy yourself a ticket to the top seat. Hardly able to find genuine people for genuine replies in this situation.

Ok skyblade, I'll bite...
Why a 320 TR? Do you have a job secured with a potential employer?
If not, save your ( I mean your parents) money. Ask all of those unemployed 200 hr Indian cpl wonders with a type if it's gotten them anywhere?
Oh, and by the way , you have no business whatsoever in a 320 with 200 hrs hours tt.
Have fun pissing away your parents money

Alliance in Miami are DGCA approved. They are the same building as Pan Am so ask for prices from both schools. Pan Am do ratings for less than 10k USD'S.
