I didnt intend for this thread to keep bragging about whose skills are better than the other...
The main intention is to clear misconceptions IGRUA / NFTI students have about those who learned to fly outside India .

I learned a few things about them and accept the same

However they seem to stick to their attitude that one bad pilot from FAA / Canada / Australia represents everyone who comes from there

we dont want to compete with anyother cheap institute because we know we are the best ,and one more thing keep Sabena aside because it belongs to CAE Global Academy...."WE ARE IN SAFE HANDS''
Well surprise Sabena dosent do anything different that other part 141 schools in the United States other than the fact that CAE bought them

Now about what going on behind our backs...

We are quite aware of it thank you

We are talking about India where corruption is rampant from top to bottom.

Same goes for the recruitment in the airlines where backdoor entries have been going on for quite sometime irrespective of whether you come from IGRUA / FAA / Canada or even phillipines

I'd rather earn my way to a flying job rather than get it on the basis of who you know

Everyone knows that AI and IC come for recruitment to IGRUA even when there are thousands of other pilots more experienced and qualified than a 200 hour cpl holder

AI should have given those 777 jobs to pilots within IC who are on the A320 or to pilots of other airlines who are flying ATR or Embraer and want a change of flying jobs.

They should have recruited the paramount airways pilots who have plenty of Jet experience instead of wannabe pilots without any experience at all.

Now about JAA License .
Well here's a shocker

Most of the flying schools in Europe send their candidates to the U.S or australia or New Zealand for the flight training part
Even the JAA CPL checkride is done in the U.S

The only thing they do back in europe is write the 14 ATPL subjects and fly for 15 hrs in european airspace

A JAA license is only preferred by certain countries that follow the JAA rules word for word for eg: Middle East
Except in Saudi Arabia they prefer FAA licenses

Anyway thanks for contributing to these posts

To all those who came from IGRUA and NFTI...

Good Luck for your future career with Air India Ltd
Hope you get the 777
