hey B2N2,
yes the Indian FAA CPL holders do have to pass certain assessments to convert their license into an Indian CPL. The worst of those papers is the RTR examination, which is extremely notorious out here. They dont require glass panel hours though.
Any idea how much a good school would end up costing for the entire course? Back home it costs on average USD 45,000 till you get the CPL. Although it will take you 12+ months to clear papers, complete formalities, et all...
Know any good schools where you are?
