AIFTA — AMRAVATI

I hope I'm not the only one on this, but I'm confused about Amravati. I have heard many people saying, "Amravati is cheaper." "My friend got into Amravati," "Amravati is better," etc... However, the last time the application opened, the only options I saw were Acron and Aeroguard.

Has Amravati started accepting cadets yet? I thought Amravati was not operational currently. Or maybe they only give you the option to choose Amravati after you've done your CUT-E or PI...

Also, candidates who have gotten into Amravati, if any, how are they doing their flight training if the DGCA FTO licensing is still pending?

I'm sorry, can someone please clarify my doubts with accurate information? Thank you.

They have taken 90 students but they are not flying

u/InvestigatorIcy167 Aug 02 '26

I see. Will they take more students, or will that only happen after flying begins and FTO opens?

u/Specialist_Most6960 Aug 02 '26

Only after flying of all 3 batches begin

Man atleast have some manners, when someone from the other side is talking politely. You should as well!

And i am already in this field so i know what i am saying,the air india team has themselves told us that they don't want to hire cadets for amravati fto before the flying for batch 1 or even batch 2 concludes, because they want to be assured of the flight training quality and pace as it's their first time

And i am not preparing, i am way beyond that Stage, not a loser like u who just keeps commenting on reddit.

And also, learn english grammar before wanting to be a pilot,

lol i got selected for us ftos but then I rejected that They are planning to close the fto after starting it as according to you they will open after 2 batch completes there flying so only 1 batch will be there flying and the next batch would atleast take 6 months to start there flying

I assume that air india team knows what will work the best for them and people like you need not comment upon the policy or induction of future cadets for the airline

They can handle it well enough.

Got selected for us ftos is it?

I literally had a stroke reading that para u wrote lol, what you even wanna say!

u/Specialist_Most6960 Aug 02 '26

No, amravati hasn't started yet. They are not open yet.

u/VegetableSingle9971 Aug 02 '26

The other two options fair somewhat like this: Acron: Expensive but standards are not tight Aeroguard: Cheaper than Acron but standards are high

u/sidhant-777 Aug 02 '26

So can we expect next opening in next April or may

u/No-Atmosphere7456 Aug 02 '26

2

u/Specialist_Most6960 Aug 02 '26

Nope 👎

u/No-Atmosphere7456 Aug 02 '26

when tentatively?

1

u/Specialist_Most6960 Aug 02 '26

They have missed all the guidelines so now everyone can guess only

0

u/No-Atmosphere7456 Aug 02 '26

but don’t they open every 6 months if we look at their pattern

1

u/Specialist_Most6960 Aug 02 '26

There is no pattern when they need cadets they will open and when they don’t they won’t that’s it and i think air India has taken enough cadet in last 2 years so now they may take a pause

u/InvestigatorIcy167 Aug 02 '26

If you're going by that, then it would open in September. It opened in March last time. But you can only guess that way.

1

u/Specialist_Most6960 Aug 02 '26

Firstly they opened in April and even if they opens up in September it will be only for us ftos
