RkoSim - what negative comments have you heard?
i met captain ameet k agarwal, the owner and ceo. he is a big shot. he is very influential. he does charters for chief ministers.
he is also close to narendra modi.no wander they are penetrating gujarat.
he got a call from ajit singh the other day asking to keep a pilot in front of me.
-----------------------------
Well, well well, a second sign up from Supreme Aviation. What an incredible coincidence! What are the chances of that happening?
Regards again,

I am not Indian citizen,I am from The Netherlands.
By the way I am waiting also for some information for which country they wants to recruit, and how do they do it with the type-endorsement.

Supreme is recruiting for India, base Mumbai, remember you will end up paying alot for accommodation as many places in Mumbai prefer to keep 5-8 months of security deposit and rent can start from 300$ / month +(correct me people if I am wrong)
Caravan Rating can cost you on an average 12000USD but you might be able to find cheaper options, remember if you are doing it on sim do it only on Level D simulator otherwise Indian DGCA wont accept it.

Van driver thank you for the information.
Wooww 12000$ for a caravan endorsement is a lot of money,here in Europe it is much cheaper,especialy in polen.I agree that the accommodation would be around 300$ p.m.,but I have to survive for 1year.And what about the live expences in mumbay relative to europe it mast be much cheaper?
greetings

You cannot fly for an operator flying Indian Registered aircraft ( VT ) as an FO unless you have an Indian Passport / Original Citizen of India / Person of Indian origin card
Thats a DGCA rule
In addition to that you need an Indian CPL and Radio License . All these can take a very long time to convert
Now if the operator is flying a foreign registered aircraft then its a whole another matter...

looks like supreme has sent common offer letter to everyone. whether things written in it applicable to a specific person or not they have just sent it.
there would be no name written in offer letter to whom it is sent for.
flaps 35: if you do caravan rating on real aircraft you need to fly(10 hours) as per DGCA exercises mentioned with sortie wise statement issued by the training academy. if you are going to do it on sim, you would be doing 10 hours sim time. In both the cases you will undergo some hours of ground training and written test. Also I have seen trend of DGCA asking caravan pilots to do familiarization and IR flight in India to get Caravan endorsement so be ready to bear the cost of that as I am not sure supreme is going to take care of it.
I am not sure about local rules but Cyril sounds right so confirm everything about rules regarding getting work permit and other important things for working as first officer on caravan in India before investing any money into it.
with the aircraft expected to arrive in a month or so ( as per supreme) and flying would be done regularly between Mumbai and near by states and airports I dont know if supreme would operate it regularly on N registration but anything is possible.

there is no such thing that you have to be an indian citizen to fly VT registered aircrafts.
Supreme Aviation has multiple foreign expat pilots on their payroll currently flying business jets for Essar, Jindal, India Bulls, state government, etc. (their last vacancy announcement was for Hawkers, gulfstreams, etc.).
Any pilot around the world needs to follow something called FATA with DGCA, including security clearance and conversion, which takes about 4 months.
guys at Supreme or any other company can push and get the same done in about 2.5 months.

Please read what I have written once again
I have underlined the specific portion for you
My reply was to @flaps35 when he mentioned that he will be joining as First Officer (FO) and he later mentioned that he is from the Netherlands
I am pretty sure you are aware that the DGCA does not allow foreigners to be hired as a First Officer
