I'm planning to do a self-sponsored initial Airbus-320 Type rating (DGCA) and I wish to do it only from CAE.
After contacting different CAE centres which provide A320 TR in accordance with DGCA syllabus such as CAE-Stockholm, CAE-Madrid and CAE-Dubai, I've decided to do my A320 TR from CAE-Dubai.
My decision is mainly based on the fact that for me CAE-Dubai is economically viable as compared to CAE-Madrid and CAE-Stockholm.
Well, I wish to extract answers and opinions from informative people who have done their TR at CAE-Dubai and also from others too who can provide any input on this matter.
How is CAE-Dubai in terms of training standards in comparison to other CAE centres? Choosing CAE-Dubai over other CAE centres, am I taking a right decision? Yes,I know training standards will be more or less same at all the CAE centres as its CAE.
But, As I'm taking a big step and a big decision in choosing my training provider its good to have opinions from people who know it and are experienced.
Opinions and any information related to CAE-Dubai are highly welcome and any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks a lot.
Update please!
I am very much interested in going to CAE for my A320 type rating but I hear that airlines charge 7-9lacs INR for the bridge training. The entire cost of type rating (27lacs INR) + bridge training would be unaffordable for me. I think GTA Spain is the best option for me. Need suggestions!
