Hi! Left Wing.I checked the DGCA Website.And read all the forms too. The doubt is this - for appearing for the Conversion EXams it says in the end -"if foreigner submit form thru employer/sponsoring organisation". Are Nepali Citizens considered foreigners?
can't I appear for the DGCA exams by "self-sponsoring"?
Hope you can find the answers!
Thank you

hi indonep
Its true when you say that Indian govt doesnt view a nepali or bhutanese as foreigners but in aviation i am not too sure about that.the best thing for you to do is call up DGCA and ask.Also find out if there are nepali pilots working in any of the airlines in India.
Good luck

Well I personally know of a few Indian pilots who during the last aviation downturn('96-'00) worked for a few carriers in Nepal like Buddha air and so on....so I'm pretty sure that nepalis can work in India...but to be on the safe side go see someone in DGCA when u go to Delhi next....

The only way you will get a reply from DGCA is to go there and ask. Also helps if you have some kind of contacts 
.
try www.air-titan.com for grd school in COK not in BOM..very good pro set up. BOM is not the best place for grd school.

Leftwing. thanx for the air titan link. how about delhi for ground school?
I personally think i need ground training only for Navigation paper. Air Regulation & Meterology is fine. how much d you think its gonna cost for a 1 month class?
Also,Personally what do you think about the shortage of pilots in india? is it really that bad of the media has exegeggarated the figures??
thanks.

Close to 250 aircrafts on order by the airlines, each aircraft needs approx 6 sets of pilots..you do the math now !
The shortage is huge right now, hence jobs are easy will remain this way for 2yrs, and the Indian guys are the envy of the world of aviation.
250 hrs TT and RHS of a ATR,320,737NG,E170...

Hi, does anybody know when this law is going to change?
Because Indian has a shortage of Captains and F/O (copilots), so they will need expat pilots to continue the normal operations. i think is just time to see expat pilots as F/O. What do you think left wing?
