High Flyers Aviation Services(HFAS) and Washington International Flight Academy(WIFA) based out of Maryland, USA have formed a joint venture organization for Ab-Initio pilot training.
Our DGCA Commercial Pilot Program is an accelerated, structured program that will allow aspiring pilots 'HIGH FLYERS' to obtain the necessary skills to transition from the flight training environment into the professional airline world.
Eligibility Criteria
Class 10+2 with Physics & Math examination pass-out certificate from a recognized Indian Board or University in India
17 years of age at the time of enrollment
Valid Class II Medical certificate, will require Class I Medical Certificate for the issue of Commercial pilot license.
Our courses and training aircraft both meet the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) requirements. All India pilot training courses include the DGCA required 200 total hours, with over 200 in-aircraft hours.
It is essential to note that High Flyers Flight Training Academy does not use "shared time" or "safety pilot" time, as some other schools do, to satisfy pilot-in-command (PIC) time. Shared time may reduce costs, it is NOT recognized as PIC time in India, as well as many other countries. Importantly, since shared time also reduces "hands-on" flight time, it diminishes the student pilot's flight skills.
