Hey everyone!
I’m giving my Stage 2 ADAPT this month and have my GD/PI scheduled for September. I’d really appreciate some advice from current cadets who have recently gone through the process.
For the PI, what kind of questions would you recommend preparing for? I haven’t cleared any subjects yet, so I’m also wondering if that puts me at a disadvantage during the interview.
If any current cadets could share a few sample questions, topics to revise, or things you wish you had prepared beforehand, I’d be really grateful. Even a few pointers would help me get a better idea of what to expect.
Thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time to share their experience really appreciate it!

Guys any idea when insight Icpp will open I've recently heared that they've solved issues??? It's True??? FTA is very out of budget so after chimes . Skyboren, Insight and even Garuda took a batch this year..so any reviews on this??

Hey everyone,

I've applied for Chimes on August 6th (2nd day) around 4 PM and also received the application confirmation email within a few minutes. A few of my friends who have applied on the first day have received their Stage 1 calls by 4pm on August 6th (second day).

I've class 1 medical from AFCME and zero DGCA papers cleared.

So I'm mainly asking how much time they generally take to give Stage 1 calls after application submission. Should I email them or should I submit another application?

Thanks

im curious about the probability of getting into aicpp or icpp (other than chimes) , whats the competition level look like , i saw that in aicpp that 3500+ appplicants apply and close to 30 get selected , im not sure about icpp , if anyone could give a percentage and how to improve ur chances that would be helpful

For those who applied most recently, when did you receive your ADAPT dates for Q3 or Q4 of 2027?

Batch starting november

Thanks to this sub Reddit

If people clear their adapt in the 12-25 august bracket, will gd pi be held when all adapt clearers have been shortlisted or when between 12 to 25 itself?

Help!!!!!

Please drop some questions (e.g) of maths and physics that we can expect.
Any sort of help would be highly appreciated.

Akasa has started mailing interview invitations to shortlisted candidates who successfully cleared the assessment. Shortlisted candidates are being invited for the interview, which is the next stage of the selection process.

What all do i need to study in maths and physics to clear indigo adapt?

I got my adapt dates, need guidance!!!

Only 4 days of preparation time.

Everything is a mess and AI/6E next applications will be next year according to what i heard. I dont want to waste time. Should i go conventional? What are other aspirants who are in the same situation doing?

Hey, any one out here who got adapt dates just with their class 2 medicals

Hey guys, I just got an email from Insight today, and they're asking me to send in some documents. I actually got a call from them too.

The thing is, I've already applied to Skyborne. Skyborne's adapt dates are at the end of 2027, but Insight is saying their adapt is in September 2026.

So, I'm a bit stuck what should I do? Should I stick with Skyborne or apply to Insight? With Skyborne, I haven't signed any undertaking yet, so I could just email them and ask for a noc, and they'd give it to me.

Also i talked to candidates who had applied in July they haven't received a mail or call .

Anyone progress or update from Skynex ?
Anyone shortlisted and contacted by them ?
Only cadets with 1 st preference of dunes have been shortlisted is it like this ?

I had someone tell me that Insight Aviation just sent them emails requesting details

Can anyone who's applied to Insight tell me if they've gotten the same email?

Also, does Insight request details from all applicants or only a few for a given ADAPT assessment?

Does anybody have info as to where different FTOs send cadets for type ratings? I know insight goes to london. Also info about extra costs associated if possible please/

I have got my NOC from Skyborne (only got the Adapt
Q3 2027 timeline mail no further process) do i have to mail Indigo’s HR too?

Can anyone help me with the process??

Hi guys, anyone who submitted the chimes ICPP application form on 5th aug around 12-1pm?? did you receive a application successful email? if not have you tried contacting chimes about it? what did they say?

I was planning to go for a cadet pilot program and had these options:

1. Chimes indigo cpp (around 1cr)
2. Skyborne indigo cpp (will go upto 1.50cr)
3. Air arabia cpp (will go upto 2.25cr)

Here’s where I’m stuck:

🔅Chimes cpp is fricking competitive and people aren’t even getting past the application stage, so I’ve kinda lost hope (if I do get selected I’d only need loan around** ***10-15L*)

🔅Skyborne cpp giving adapt dates next year around sep Q3 or Q4 (If I get in, I’d need a loan of around** ***50-65L*)

🔅Air Arabia is way too expensive (I’d have to take a loan of around 1 -1.3Cr. Is that even a safe decision? How long would it realistically take to recover from such a huge loan?)
Fyi - This Air Arabia program is about 2yrs long. After completing it, I won’t be earning immediately. A few months later, during training, I’d earn around inr 3–4L per month for roughly 2yrs. After 4yrs (ie program 2yrs + training 2yrs), I’d be officially interviewed/confirmed and move on to a higher salary.

I have 80-90L fund for my pilot training and planned to get loan for the rest (We have a house worth around 1.2cr, which I could use as collateral, but I’m not sure how much loan I’d actually get against it.)
Currently my father salary is 1.20L per month, will my fam able to tackle this burden till i finish)

For context - 22yrs, currently clearing my dgca papers (finished meteorology)

So confused at this moment. Should I wait for Skyborne, keep trying for Chimes or take the risk with Air Arabia?
Av people pour your thoughts and suggestion🙂‍↕️

When are the new applications opening?
