DGCA CPL Conversion Exams

nikaviator · 26th January 2009, 17:38

Hi, I hold a faa cpl and am in the process of converting to an Indian DGCA cpl, can anyone kindly recommend some good coaching centers for composite and air regulations exams in New Delhi ? I will be appearing for the April session exams. Thanks!

Dear Nikaviator

I just cleared my dgca papers a few months back and highly recommend Tapash Kar, a pilot and ground instructor, I passed with above average marks in composite and regs in the very first attempt , small class, all of us passed, an excellent instructor for cpl exams, you can reach him on mobile no 9910405911…. A couple of friends have taken classes with Surinder Singh, large class, with mixed results, he is quite famous in delhi and have been teaching for a few years, don’t have his no. …. Good Luck!

Full money back!!!

It seems like the teachers are not confident about the outcome of their students. I am not looking to shop a TV OR IPOD here. I’ve got six months time in my hands before my currency will lapse and I don"t want to become a victim of someone's experiment coz if i fail the 30k moneyback will not help me as i need another 2.5 lakhs for my recency. I am looking for an instructor with whom my probability of passing first time around is high and the rest, as usual, always depends upon the student thatz me...Anyways thank you very much and lemme know when there is an offer to payback for recency as well then the risk would be worth taking

mate you got the all india directory! very nice!

nikaviator · 27th January 2009, 04:46

Wow, thanks a lot Divine Soul! As bad attitude said, very nice. COCOCHANEL, can you please send me the address of your instructor, wondering if he is close to where I am--small classes, and the pass rate in your class sounds great

COCOCHANEL · 27th January 2009, 06:25

Hi nikaviator

Tapash Kar
Mobile: 9910405911
He's at East of Kailash, New Delhi

Hope that's nearby....

Cheers!

iamanaussiemavrick · 27th January 2009, 07:06

Surinder Singh's classes are very good. I suggest you go for that. If you do your part its a guarantee that you will clear with his classes.

nikaviator · 27th January 2009, 10:26

Thanks, COCOCHANEL!

COCOCHANEL · 29th January 2009, 08:46

You are welcome....best of luck, hope you pass the april exam. The 6 month recency, day and night checks for SE and ME is such a bummer!

agent123 · 31st January 2009, 09:35

COCOCHANEL

Yes, the 6 months recency thing is a bummer indeed, but hey .. this is India pal ! .. There are always work arounds.

There are people working in the DGCA (read paper pushers and 'pan wallas') who will gladly doctor your flight training records and logbooks and other documents so that you do NOT have to go abroad to log 15 hours of flight time.

Approx cost (current rates) = Rs1 to 1.5 lakhs (~$3,000)

In India, as the saying goes ... If at first you dont suceed, ... BRIBE or use your connections !!!!!!

mannymux · 1st February 2009, 16:45

If anyone knows any instructors who are teaching classes in Chennai, could you please give me their names and contact? Thanks...

bad_attitude · 4th February 2009, 21:23

"Full money back!!!

It seems like the teachers are not confident about the outcome of their students."

@nika: there are always two ways of looking at things. maybe it's the opposite. maybe they are so confident that they're sure everyone will pass!

the door has been shown to you, you have to walk it.

in any case, the DGCA has been made into such a big issue. and to top it all everyone in this country loves to do "coaching" ... if you were so worried about your recency, you should have started studying on your "own" way back for the DGCA, rather than wait till the very end and try and take some short cut by taking classes and hope the guy at the black/white board magically makes you pass.

anyways, just my 2 cents ... good luck!

you're contradicting yourself pal !

Trying to get the "easy way out" or the 'safest way out" aint gonna help you.
RECENCY LAPSE is a thing which you must learn to live with and ACCEPT IT as a part of your flying training and license conversion process.

Just for your info ... the DGCA randomly picks out about 500 "Computer Numbers" every exam session and DELIBERATELY FAILS them in their exams. This is just so that the congestion is reduced in the applications for Indian CPL !!!
of course, the greasing of their palms in this process by many applicants is the ICING ON THE CAKE !!!!!

bad_attitude · 5th February 2009, 03:32

agent123, how did you come across this statistic?

mithuldas · 5th February 2009, 07:04

It is a rumour that has been circulating for a while now, although nobody is able to back it up with facts.

agent123 · 5th February 2009, 10:18

Mithuldas,

It's not a rumour. This is a well known fact that the DGCA purposely fails applicants
Infact, the WPC has gone one step further and come out with another evil policy of making sure that not more than 8 to 10% of applicants are passed in the RTR exams which are conducted every 2 months, for their own vested interests.

Of course, one cant really generalize the academic level and understanding of the candidates who appear for these exams, but if you just look at the statistics of the DGCA and WPC RTR examinations and see the pass/fail rate, you will agree to what I have stated above.

From my own personal experience, I know several bright hardworking individuals who have "mysteriously" failed these exams.
So what if these guys/gals had managed to breeze through their training curriculum in the US, Canada and Australia.

bad_attitude · 5th February 2009, 11:49

the FAA's a cakewalk. can't say much about canada or australia.

in any case, there is such a thing as RTI, high time some one started exercising it.

nikaviator · 5th February 2009, 20:43

@bad attitude, hang on a minute-wait till the end? Before making any more presumptuous statements, you don’t live in my house to be an authority to decide whether I have studied before hand or not. Failure rate in the DGCA Nav exams is 80-90%. I don’t have a macho attitude, with that kind of statistics it would be taking too big a risk to attempt the exams without guidance eventhough I’ve studied the GSP . No ground instructor conducts coaching for DGCA CPL exams for one year, it’s always 2-3 months before the exams session. If you can’t give any good advise please don’t give a bad one either. Taking coaching classes is not a short cut. It is a safe execution. A good pilot should be prepared not unprepared.

Agent 123, even if DGCA randomly fails 500 students, that does not mean a student should go unprepared. Regarding recency, you learns to live with failure after you fail not before, so I don’t think one should have a loser attitude. Taking coaching is not an easy way out, one still has to work very hard, and if "safest way out" does not help, then please let me know which unsafe way will
