Do you seriously think you FAA/phillipenes etc ppl are any match to IGRUA or RGNFTI cadets. you take 6 months to copmplete your entire CPL, whereas we spend the same time in ground school, studying from basics to ATPL level. and double this time in flight school. I have seen FAA/Phillipenes pilots who do not know the full form of AIP and CAR. FAA people might know how to fly an aircraft but IGRUA/NFTI cadets know how an aircraft flies. You seriously think you can learn all practical and theoretical aspects of flying in just 6 months in some cheap flying club in florida wearing a bermuda and a t-shirt. Think Again boy........and your high standards definitely show in your DGCA conversion results, takes most of u guys a year to clear 2 exams
, where as IGRUANS and NFTI cadets clear 6 exams and RT in max 2-3 sessions
.
I myself have a Multi-Engine CPL from the FAA and I would not agree with what you mentioned in your post, maybe some pilots from the FAA are below standards that are put forward by the DGCA but that does not mean all of them are the same. Quality of training is way different in both the countries better for some reasons there and better for some reasons here. And talking about the written papers and the RT. I cleared my RT in the first attempt itself and have just attempted the written papers for the first time, so i dont think your generalisation holds valid anymore. Let a persons flying do the talking.
