LOIs and TR

Has anyone received LOIs from the 23, 2, 6, 7 batches ? Any instructions on TR from CAE ?
As per my records they are left with just 23 typerated guys after the batch thats joining on 2 Sep. Im assuming they would need another batch ready by Dec latest (by 'ready' I mean TR completed, license endorsed and Sim check done). This is offcourse, based on a steady batch induction rate every 2-3 months that IndiGo has maintained for the last year and a half .
So should'nt the 23rd guys be leaving for TR by Sep end or so.

Although Im aware they have sufficient number of pilots as of now, it would be slightly difficult starting next year considering Air Asia is going to be a replica of IndiGo once launched. They too plan to induct 1 aircraft every month for the next 5 years. Same type. Crew requirement and hiring would be of similar nature.

So keeping all this in mind...again...should'nt the 23rd guys be leaving for TR by Sep end or so ? Hahaa

I cleared my interview held on 23rd July and have been scheduled for my type rating in CAE Dubai starting 15th September.

I received my LOI by email today and the hard copy will be couriered in the next few days by Indigo.

The process for the next batches should begin in the coming weeks.

Still haven't received an official confirmation on the course fee. Heard from one of my friend that it is $ 34,500.

Hello ,

LOI- Letter of Intent is a formal letter from an organization, that says they are willing to to hire you provided you fulfil the listed pre-requisites, which in this case would be to selfsponsor your typerating on the A320, get endorsed and finally be able to display a level of proficiency at the Sim check conducted by IndiGo.

This in no way keeps your license 'current' or 'valid'. Its only a piece of paper that conveys an 'intent' of hiring you by IndiGo.

My suggestion to you is this :
1. Go to a flying club and get your renewal done. Submit the papers to DGCA for the renewal.
2. The best people to advise you on this would be Ms Parul or Ms Sandra. So mail them stating your concern clearly and asking what should be done.

Im not sure but CAE may want your license to be valid for atleast 6 months at the time of leaving for your type-rating.

All the best for your results

@3 greens, No its too early. The joining date usually come 1 month before the joining date.
The next batch will commence in Nov mid-end. This is certain.
So the joining date will be announced approx around that time in Oct.

The one joining in Sep is on Sep 2.

@bhambri

are you sure it's AFTER the sept batch?

there is some list on fb which shows about 30-35 left BEFORE the Sept batch!

also, 35 corresponds to 2 batches, right?

8 guys got selected in Feb 2012 type rated batch and that sums up to 31 and I have written 35 because there are few names missing in the LOI list.
