How to Apply for Indian FRTOL?

[DJ Flyboy]

I have an Indian RT and was isuued a radio certificate from Canada.
Now I want to apply for Indian FRTOL so that I can fly in India.

What are the documents that I need?
Is an SPL necessary?
Ive already Converted my canadian RT to an Indian RT..

Please help me out here..

This is one of those questions which do not have a clear written reply. Although it is known that one can convert an RTR to an FRTOL, the process is not known to me.

You might not have to write the FRTOL Exam, but I think you will need a SPL before you can apply for the license.

So, First SPL, then Application (along with current medical assessment) for the Issue of License. But here's the trouble, DGCA website has only one for concerning the FRTOL restricted. And that is for the Examination.

Try talking to a Flying School, or Even better visit the open house.
Post your experience.

All the Best.

You can get an FRTOL (Flight Radio Telephone Operators License) without a pilot licence.


5000 Rs DD,

RTR Permit, (if based on foreign license, then the concerned CPL)

Apply with form available on DGCA website.

Does the above method hold good for the ones who have RTR(P) ? Also do we need to send a self addressed stamp?

[aviator86]

Can the FRTOL application be dropped off at the DGCA Bangalore regional office?

I have a valid rtr(a) and i am in usa doing my recency.
I understand that i need to apply for frtol from dgca what documents do i need to sent and do i need to send my faa license and medical??
Also do i need to sent a self addressed envelope so that dgca returns my documents.??

[cyrilroy21]

@aviator 1

The list of documents is as given above equinox123 . In your case obviously the RTR A is more than enough

No need to give a self addressed envelope as the DTL section wont use it anyway
