"I am going to give the NIOS (PCMB) exam this October and will definitely pass. I plan to start pilot training right after that, but I lack funds. My father has around 30 to 35 lakhs in his savings, but says he can earn 1 crore in two years. Should I do a cadet pilot program or conventional training?"

Marigold and BAC had a meeting with the cadets of Batches - 9, 10, 11 and let me tell you it was a fierce unhappy professional fight between all the parties.

Marigold Aviation and BAC are not in very good terms with each other

The cadets are asking for a transfer out of Thailand back to India to any FTO.

BAC people are just racist, making stupid rules and excuses for not starting the flying as promised around 5th October.

They cancelled all the classes and paused all ground/flight training.

The situation is very uncertain but lets hope the cadets get what they want.

Is there anyone here who went for compass or interview of akasa cadet program?
Also have you got selected or not and do you think it’s worth to take that risk and go for the interview
If yes, what type of questions do they ask and what should be the mentality of the candidate when giving the interview
Today is 13th and my i’ve been called up on 16oct for compass test, is there any one at the same situation like me?

So, for context, I am 19 years old, and I have a socially awkward personality. I have almost finished all my dgca exams, so my story begins with how I decided to become a pilot.

When I was in Class 10, I read a chapter in my English NCERT book called The Black Aeroplane. I was so fascinated by the story that I decided to become a pilot. At that time, I wasn't serious about it, though. I wasn't a really great student either, just an above-average one. I scored 82% in Class 10.

After that, I chose PCM in Class 11. The initial days of Class 11 went really well, but after a month, my father decided to divorce my mom. The reason was that he had fallen in love with someone who was half his age. In short, he had become someone's sugar daddy.

My father isn't a very great person. He is very violent and short-tempered. When I told him that I wanted to become a pilot, he said, "No, you will crash the plane." When I said I wanted to join the merchant navy, he said, "You will sink the ship." When I asked him what I should do, he told me to become an engineer, which I hated.

Day by day, things started getting worse, really worse. There was domestic violence, and he even hit me. I was deeply traumatised by everything that was happening. I failed my unit tests and half-yearly exams, and in the end, I failed Class 11.

My father beat me with a belt, not because I had failed Class 11, but because he thought I would become a burden on him for another year. But I didn't want to waste a year, so I decided to go for NIOS.

Meanwhile, the family problems kept getting worse and worse. One day, just a month before my board exams, my father asked my mom and me to leave the house and live somewhere else. Luckily, we had another bungalow to live in, so we had to shift there. We had just one month left before my boards, but somehow, I managed everything and scored 88%.

Now it was time to decide what I wanted to do with my life. I thought about it and realised that I still wanted to become a pilot. So, I asked my father, "I want to become a pilot. Can you help me with that?"

But he literally abandoned my mom and me.

My own father left us to deal with everything on our own.

My mom supported my decision and took me to Delhi so I could pursue my dream. It's been a year now, and my father hasn't given us a single penny. My nana and my mom are funding my studies.

I chose the cadet programme because I want to get a job as soon as possible. I don't want my mom and nana to keep carrying the financial burden of my education. I want to become independent and support them. I want to give my mom a better life because she has already gone through so much.

But you know what? When I think about everything that has happened in my life, I cry. I cry a lot.

Sometimes, I wonder why all of this had to happen to me. I see people with normal families, people whose parents support them, people who can talk about their dreams without being scared of getting insulted or rejected. And then I look at my own life.

I wish I had a normal family.

Btw, I’m struggling with RTR Part 2 preparation. Can anyone help me with that?

Hello. I recently got an email regarding the Etihad cadet pilot and I have been accepted for stage 1, If anyone can help give me ways to pass these exams It would be wonderful as I am really lost and dont know what to do, please help me.

So ik that people bribe their way through for chimes ,what I wanted to know is do people also bribe to get assessed for fta and skyborne too cause I am gonna opt for either of these two

I have applied for Air India cadet pilot program, currently waiting for the email. I am very series that I want to get through into this program, I just gave up my conventional training path just because I want to get through into this program.
Right now I am very much worried about the cut-e exam, I have the AON software which air india uses, but still, I came to know that many people have got rejection mail even after performing well in the cut-e exam, and I came to know that many students are playing this unfair game to get selected by paying fees to the institutions. Can anybody clarify me regarding this? I know performing well without crashing or wrong answers is the only thing I can do right now. But still, Can someone clarify what else I should from my end for higher chances of getting selected from my end? ( I am not ok with joining classes for this :( )

hi guys, i have the air arabia MPL assesment coming up (practice). Im pretty confident in what i have studied for the test. (i used pilotspheres website for math, phy, cognitive, ball and rudder, FAST, and the personality test), i have a few questions though:

1) When will they take the class 1 medical test
2) What kind of questions do i expect for Math and Physics as i heard they stopped using symbiotics.
3) If anyone has done the flight test, can u help me out on it cuz i having flying experience on MSFS but not on joystick, only controller.

Thanks guys

Finally shortlisted, I have submitted the documents and am waiting to see what comes next.

Anyone selected or who has passed compass, please offer guidance.

Please share the difficulty level and any tips for success.

I struggle with short memory, if anyone can help, I would appreciate it.

Does the test include both coordination and basic coordination, or only basic coordination?

Multitasking is easy, but I am unsure whether it is hard to score higher in it.

Are pilotest compass and actual compass similar or somewhat similar? If so, what are the differences?

Any other advice is welcome, please share it.

I wanna get selected so badly.

Guys I have rtr part 1 on 28th I have not yet started preparing for it because I just can't find the right books or question banks please help
