DGCA ATPL Exam Requirements
 

What are the requirements for appearing for the DGCA ATPL exams?
Is there a mimimum time restriction for apperaing, as in, can one have a frozen ATPL?
Can one appear for the exams even if he/she doesnt have 1500 hours, pass them and be issued with atpl as and when he/she completes 1500 hrs, just like CPL.

Thanks in advance to anyone who responds
Cheers!

As per CAR Section 7B-B1, page 8:

The applicant should have Indian Commercial Pilot Licence (CPL) with multi-engine endorsement or a minimum of 500 hours of flying experience of which
at least 200 hours should be as Pilot-in-Command in case of Defence Personnel.

CIVIL AVIATION REQUIREMENTS

you would also be needing a letter from an organization stating that you have done the ground for the ATPL . And according to the CA-9 Annex 14, either the Commanding Officer/general manager - operations/CFI shall sign the form....



Commanding officer - Would only sign it if you are from the forces.
GM- Operations - Would only sign if you are with the airline.
CFI- I don't know but i asked a lot of CFI's and they say, they cannot sign for ATPL as none of the flight schools have an approved Ground School for ATPL.

so i think the only option is that you can write ATPL only after you join an Airline. I myself have tried to find out a lot about it and even got my form rejected because there was no course completion certificate.

Singapore ATPL to DGCA ATPL
 

Dear All Aviators,
I have a valid Singapore ATPL and am looking to convert my ATPL to a DGCA ATPL, do I need to just clear the theory exams or must I also satisfy the hours requirement mentioned in the Application for ATPL ??
I am a bit confused because my case is a conversion of ATPL and not an initial issue of ATPL..
Can a humble soul answer and help me please.
Many Thanks in advance and Best Wishes !
