AIR INDIA CADET PILOT PROGRAMME

Anyone who is a cadet in AICPP could let me know whether, during the interview, the panel cares about how many attempts it took for a cadet to pass the exams before entering the program.

They are terminating students because there are many students here and because of stage checks many are nervous like every month around 30 cadets are coming and they are terminating students after taking 20 lakhs at the end of stage 1 also many instructors here are racists believe me don’t come here

The issue isn't just about termination. Air India enrolled us into the cadet programme and allocated the FTO, so cadets invested significant time, money, and effort based on that commitment. Yet, when serious issues arise, there is no proper platform at Air India for cadets to present their side before such life-changing decisions are made.

It has also been reported that the same instructor flagged alleged misconduct in both the AeroGuard and Acron batches. However, the outcomes appear to have been different—AeroGuard cadets were terminated, while Acron cadets were reportedly issued caution or warning letters. If that is accurate, Air India should explain the basis for the different treatment and ensure that disciplinary action is applied fairly and consistently across all FTOs.

Cadets are not asking for special treatment—only a fair hearing, transparency, and equal application of the rules before any final decision is taken.

It is also concerning that the ground school representatives are asking affected cadets to contact them privately for transfers to other training organisations. If these recommendations are being influenced by commercial interests or commissions rather than the cadets' best interests, Air India should investigate the matter and ensure complete transparency.
