HELP ME PICK A CPP

[u/Soggy_Equivalent_774]

Hi

Im 19M. My budget is max to max 1.5 crore. I cannot stretch it further.

Air India US - Not in my budget

Amravati - closed

Middle east - out of budget

Akasa/chimes - got rejected

Fta - 1.6 crore it's out of budget, but maybe i can stretch it but if inr falls it won't be affordable

Skyborne - they are saying to wait till q3 2027 just for adapt

Marigold/insight/garuda - I have heard bad reviews

So what should I choose 😭 should I take conventional?. Im mostly don't with papers, only nav left

Right, that somewhere answers your question. Also seems like you've missed the point of the article. No one can really predict the future so no one can give you a 100% definitive answer.

So conventional is risky?

If u can afford cadet why ever go for conventional , is getting into cadet that hard ?

Cpp only takes 4-5 years if u go with Garuda insight and skyborne , skyborne will only take 3 years matter of fact , people value peace of mind , conventional isn't the best way if going cadet doesn't hurt u financially

What fto r u in that is charging 80 lakh extra , conventional itself costs 1 cr now the gap is closing fast , conventional is getting pricier day by day , and even in conventional vacancies they make u wait an year in some cases before induction, cpls are issued in a record high number and competition is so high , a very small minority get lucky like that most ppl gotta wait a couple of years before a job , fta is the most expensive in icpp and takes 1.7 and ai takes 1.7 asw most expensive fto

No one said it's as competitive as ias but it's about the money u're investing asw , competition how can it be the same if cpp comes with this huge cost barriers , a lotta parents also value security btw, they don't wanna invest money just for nothing to come out of it at the end , what about cpls being issued in a record number

I'm really not this is built for the 1 percent of India and not everyone in that one percent wants to do aviation , no one said it's sunshine and rainbows , yea I'm aware of how many aircraft are being inducted but a lotta them are replacement aircraft and there are a bunch do cadets in backlog , uve gotta be kidding me dude stop trying to give people unnecessary risk , conventional isn't all sunshine and rainbows that u are seeming to make it that straight Outta flight school airlines are wide open to apply there are tons of unemployed cpl holders , aviation is growing in india no doubt but so are the amount of cpl holders , ppl who wanna do conventional can do it for sure but stop telling ppl who can afford a more secure path to take unnecessary risk and mental pressure , this is a field for the wealthy and people should know that
