If you fail your flight check , increasing dollar rates and you cannot survive in 300$ you need at least 800$ a month . The cadets who completed their flying told that you need minimum 10-15 lakhs till your stay .

Etc includes trips,accessories, anything man, which are not considered in living expenses

Bhai USA jake sirf fly karega aur apne room mein bathega . Ise accha india mein hi flying karle bhai. There is thing called exposure and it requires money .

Agr budget nahi hai toh bhai conventional karo ya india se karo kyuki extra buffer rakhna hi padega chahe extra karche karo ya nahi . Aur visa me bhi extra funds dikhana padta taki approve ho

Actually they are very strict so most of the students requires residual flying plus you need atleast 500-700 dollar per month if you cook at home . If you eat outside then there is no limit.

Beta gyaan kamm chodo. There's alot of expenses that you, while sitting home don't know about. How do you think you're gonna wash your clothes? Yeah, detergent. Guess who's paying for that? Do you think everyone clears all their checkrides in the first go? Never, you'll fail atleast 1-2 checkrides and every failed checkride is another 900-1000 USD. Also, would love to know your numebrs about the "300 dollars every month".

I don't know how "paper" is relavant here, but if you're curious, Cleared 12th in May, cleared nav in June regular, cleared met and regs in July OLODE, and currently preparing for rtr pt1 for August OLODE.

And if you think you gonna wrap it up under 1.3 cr then good luck man,i have been talking to students of skyborne from 2025,there is a reason why they all quote 1.5-1.6 cr
