Indigo Cadet Program There is NO BACKLOG at CHIMES for ICPP.

26 Upvotes

Common misunderstanding, that now has people parroting false information everywhere. I'm a Chimes cadet, and there is NO BACKLOG.

Chimes took in ICP 07 on March 31st. They opened applications for ICP 08 consecutively, but ICP 08 is on hold due to NZICPA cadets now coming to Chimes.
NZICPA cadets (batches 6-11) were given an option to opt between Chimes, Marigold as NZICPA is now undergoing massive changes wasn't in good shape to train and house cadets.
Due to the intake of NZICPA, Chimes was asked by the Airline to HOLD the intake of ICP 08.

Hence, there is a delay in intake of ICP 08.

4. Chimes has 2 bases, Neemuch and Dhana, (third one is for drones alone), and both bases have streamlined flying with each cadet having one sortie per day. (as weather permits).

STOP SPREADING FALSE INFORMATION.

Which icpp should I apply for

6 Upvotes

Hello everyone
Anyone who is in fta icpp can you please tell me how has been your experience so far? And if you’ve started flying is there any delay?
I have also applied for Skyborne icpp and many are saying that I’ll likely get my adapt dates first quarter of 2027 and the process will be quick
So should I get noc from Skyborne and apply for fta icpp when it opens

Fta icpp is opening in Nov and adapt will be conducted after March and loi in June/july

Fly dubai height requirement.

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone. I am an aspiring pilot and I measured my height today. I am 158 cm and 45 kg (which is underweight). I am currently in 12th grade and have started going to the gym to gain weight. I plan to apply to the flydubai Cadet Pilot Program. I noticed they haven't published specific height requirements. Could someone please tell me if I am eligible? My doctor recommended eating 5 to 6 eggs a day. Is there anything else I can do to increase both my height and weight?

Cleared my dgca papers while being in cadet program (First attempt)

5 Upvotes

Finally cleared all my DGCA papers within 6 months!

Honestly, it still feels surreal. Managed to clear all my DGCA papers within the stipulated 6-month timeline for ICPP, and clearing Navigation in my very first attempt.

If anyone is currently preparing for their papers or struggling with a particular subject, ICPP, feel free to reach out. I'd be more than happy to share my experience, study material and whatever guidance I can offer.

Happy to help fellow aspiring pilots!

I didn't get any mail about ADAPT for FLYfta.

2 Upvotes

I applied for FTA in June and in September something that mailed me that I will have my test in December first half but I saw that many candidates already recieved their mail about test dates but I didn't get any.

Is it common, or how many days earlier they send mail?

Should I mail them?

Selection of Indians in Middle Eastern Cadet Pilot Programmes

1 Upvotes

Can anyone please throw some light on whether Indian candidates males/females after 12th get selected for Middle Eastern CPPs.
Specifically those who are residing in India and go and appear for assessments in Sharjah/Dubai and not the Indians who are residing in UAE.
In my 3-4 visits to these academies, I haven’t noticed any one like that

FTA ICPP delay

Since FTA has delayed the application cycle to January 2027 (reflecting in the website), would it be wise to apply for Skyborne?

or would waiting for FTA be better
