Some people are born with the passion of flying, some are not. Some realize after they have finished school and some realize after college degrees. These rules are some of the many that has to be scrapped.
In India flying schools are not able to generate profits because rules like this are only meant for people who have taken Physics and Maths in school. Generally, Indian schools offer two streams- Commerce and Science, very less schools offer subjects which can be chosen by the students like accounting ohysics and maths or other combinations.
I know people who have the passion flying but unfortunately they were in Commerce stream but were very passionate and could have become better pilots if OUR DGCA didnt have that physics and maths regulation.
opening up and reforming the DGCA regulation can be useful for students who are not from Science streams and can achieve their dream despite being accountants by educational qualifications.
Then there are some grumpy old grandpa who dont like this kind of petitions. They think that they have worked their ass off to get better grade in Science and wouldnt let the system open, these grumpy old grandpa are captains and instructors at a very high position and fear loss of job and Power.
This petition is for the future students. People have right to learn anything they want and no DGCA or any kind of entity can stop them from doing so.
It is not for Indians pilots but anyone can pledge their support for this cause.
If this campaign is successful I will forward it to AOPA-India so that they can help in advocating this issue to DGCA. They have been siccessful in the past and they will be successful in the future.
