IGRUA may not be the best but it was one among the better training institutes. no where you get to fly Aerobatic caegory ZLIN , TB 20 AND not to mention KING AIR C90 for multi engine.. and yess on campus placement in AIR INDIA and on WIDE BODY jets flying around the world the best exposure possible in INDIA for a pilot..
Most of the discussions i believe are done by keyboard pilots.. I dont know how many are flying with the airlines but just for info I am EX-IGRUA and PRESENT AIR INDIAN FLYING B777 (JOBLESS JOB).. get your heads out of ground and see what IGRUA people have achieved before commenting.
people call it arrogance we call it pride.

Ok but I also heard Indian Airlines take 50% pilots from IGRUA. What's their take on that?
