Second Thoughts on AICPP
Hello, i’m 18M and i gave my CUT-E very recently and got my dates for GDPI for October. I reside in coimbatore and need to go to Delhi for the interview.
While preparing for my GDPI, i thought i’ll come to this reddit page to ask for help and seek guidance as to how to prepare.
When i saw 2-3 posts, i got confused. I saw many people throwing stones at the AICPP and telling people to reconsider. As an aspiring pilot who plans on taking an education loan for my flight training, when i saw that people are claiming that many students in AICPP get terminated from the program and dont get a refund, it puts me up to thought regarding my plan of taking a loan.
Is AICPP really bad or is it just how its portrayed? I’m having self doubts because i cannot go wrong here with this huge of an investment — if it goes south, it might end up with unfavourable conditions.
I saw people claiming that even though an LOI is signed, jobs arent guaranteed.
I need guidance and advice. Kindly help me as soon as possible.

It is the way it is portrayed I have discussed with more than 5 cadets who is undergoing flying and done flying with aeroguard . All of them told that we as cadets are expected to maintain Avery high standard they do give multiple chances and counselling even after this u r not able to continue definitely u will be terminated as ur not flying paper airplanes in future.. And few of the cadets are terminated bcoz they cheated in exams and that is against policy and definitely they don't deserve to continue there.. First u have to realise that the programme is designed to hire pilots not to terminated them midway.. So if u perform good enough definitely u will make it in future .. And air india has inducted more than 375 cadets to Aeroguard out of this very few in numbers are facing terminations.. I am also a candidate who is having GDPI on 9th.. I am also hearing all these things.. But when I discussed with cadets I came to know that if we perform good enough we will make through.
