DGCA's New Requirement's on NOC

hey guy's what are the new DGCA requirements on TR?

I have heard they are issuing NOC as per new requirement's and the they have increased in number of hour's on "Full Flight Simulator Training".

But, I am not sure weather TRTO's has it updated and they still quoting the old price as per old DGCA requirement's.

Can anyone give me the exact change in the requirement's so that i can ask for quotation for these requirement's.

So this is Final & Latest Requirements for TR as per DGCA:

16 PF + 16 PNF - Atleast 8 FFS spread over minimum 8 days.
4 LOFT
Skill Test - 2 Session.
LVO+AWO

Well got a doubt about how much duration should be done for Skill Test and LVO+ AWO.

So min hours on Level D = 36 Hours + Skill Test followed by LVO+AWO.
What about FBT hours - How much do we need for those ?


Thanks a lot for update !

Plz read

I would advice everyone, to select a school on merit and not on Price.
The problem you will face later is that of a job, u will be asked from where and under whom did you train. also what procedures do you follow.

According to my personal experience, it a deciding factor... !!!

please take care and do not join cheap TRTOs which just give you a TR.

Cause the standard in India is very high, and TRTOs follow JAA and FAA which have lesser requirements.

@nautyjay,
Dude you are right, but i was wondering how exactly it matters because if one is able to clear all the checks and test then the airline shouldnt have any problem where you do your type rating and all???????Shed some light here.......

@ sonsal

Airline Process related to ur TRTO.

In Exam : In depth Questions on systems, no TRTO will waste time on systems, as it is not much required for FFS, just an overview is required.
Questions will not be from FCOM direct, you need to understand it very very well.

In Interview: About your instructor, procedures and FFS, They will ask you a lot of questions related to your procedures. which no TRTO will explain.

In FFS: Procedures need to be in accordance to Airbus, most of the instructors have their own procedures and don't follow airbus or modify it.

This is just according to my experience,,, alot of things change and get worst for people who are weak in systems and airbus procedures.

ALSO before joining a TRTO, make sure your instructor is well versed with English (TRTOs in Europe have a major problem, including CAE madrid)

Hope this has helped

I agree with naughtyjay...
Doing it from a reputed TRTO really helps you especially for the interview.
and IndiGo does give preference to CAE guys for the interview round.

Does Anyone know if any of the airliners in India conduct Base Check ?
i.e Touch and Goes in the actual airplane without passengers before flying as a first officer with passengers on board .

If so then how many T/O and landings ?

I have heard that the A320 simulator at CTE is really very old ( about 20 years )

There was an article about IC pilots complaining to the DGCA regarding its age

Is this true ?
