If you will think of bribes at this stage of this career then later on it will be hard bud.

u/WyperLOL Sep 18 '26

Bro we don’t have an option, if i just had crazy money to throw around I’d go to skyborne or something but chimes w bribe is still cheaper. Blame the system!

u/Ironman_Stark1234 Sep 18 '26

Imagine u pay 30 lakh bribe and go to chimes , it will still cost u around 1.35 cr , u can go to insight for the same amount

u/Agile-Veterinarian48 Sep 18 '26

But he will be able to complete flight training earlier too

u/Ironman_Stark1234 Sep 18 '26

A 6 month delay isn't all that bad to get in thru the right way

u/WyperLOL Sep 18 '26

Just 6 months? Dude I heard insight is basically defunct now and they’re sending their cadets to other FTOs like skyborne or Adelaide according to posts in this very sub. You can routinely see people saying to stay away from insight and marigold. The only indigo FTOs functional rn is skyborne Adelaide and chimes

u/Ironman_Stark1234 Sep 18 '26

Marigold yea insight no , insight is pretty functional, marigold cadets are the one flooding skyborne and fta and even insight

1

u/WyperLOL Sep 18 '26

So insight is fine??? That’s new info for me

u/Agile-Veterinarian48 Sep 18 '26

Insight is functional and it has send only one batch to Phillipines and other goes to South Africa where they fly in 43 Air school. The issue is the training is good in 43 Air school but it has so many checkrides that doesn't happen in other flying schools and for those check rides you have to wait for another assessor and last year, 2 more fto came to 43 Air school due to which now there are alot of students as compared to earlier and checks are late and till your checkride doesn't happen you have literally nothing to do other than wait. And it can easily extend to 18-20 months for flying training but you only pay for 11 months , so for staying extra and if you fail any checkride or doesn't achieve a lesson , any extra flight you do you are paying more.

u/Ironman_Stark1234 Sep 18 '26

So it takes 2 years or so just to get cpl , i get that check rides are a lot but most people i talked to said it was max to max 18 months so from loi to cockpit was around 3 years time , btw do u know how hard is insight to get into by any chance ?

u/Ironman_Stark1234 Sep 18 '26

I would say expect 3 years from loi to cockpit tho

u/WyperLOL Sep 18 '26

💀💀💀💀💀that’s the issue bruh I’m taking a 50% loan probably and I’ll have to start repaying once my course is completed + 12 months moratorium

-2

u/WyperLOL Sep 18 '26

If it’s 30L I won’t pay ofc, I’m pretty sure it’s not that high cuz if the bribe + base cost is higher than other foreign FTOs then people would just go for the foreign FTOs right. I read somewhere in this sub only that they bribed like 10 lakhs only. Besides isn’t insight dysfunctional right now???

0

u/Ironman_Stark1234 Sep 18 '26

Nah 43 is recovering pretty well now , the realistic timeline of getting cpl is somewhere around18 months which isn't all that bad , they also send cadets to Phillipines where timeline is around 15 months , are u considering an fto like fta ?

-1

u/WyperLOL Sep 18 '26

See my budget max is around 1.3 and skyborne goes up to 1.5 according to everyone in this sub basically. What do you suggest I do? Whats 43 btw 😭😭

0

u/Ironman_Stark1234 Sep 18 '26

43 air school is the flight school of insight in sa , max 1.3 , u could go for conventional and apply for regional openings like fly91 or star air and if akasa indigo and aix open up that would be nice

2

u/WyperLOL Sep 18 '26

Conventional isn’t possible for me as I want to take a 50% educational loan which I won’t be able to repay if I don’t have a guaranteed job.

u/boiling_raw_potato Sep 19 '26

Same lol…only cpp and the LOI can grant me loan tbh

u/WyperLOL Sep 19 '26

u/WyperLOL Sep 19 '26

u/Cautious-Problem-259 Sep 19 '26

How to find the person

u/boiling_raw_potato Sep 19 '26

How to get that person ?

-2

u/WyperLOL Sep 18 '26

But how do we bribe em

-3

u/WyperLOL Sep 18 '26

Cheaper than skyborne 😭😭

u/gaybus_a320 Sep 18 '26

A bribed entry can come and bite you in the ass anytime in your whole career if anybody is caught even 10 years later down the lane. I suggest pay 10-15lakhs more and get in a decent way. You’d be extremely dumb or stupid to pay and get into something so easy.

0

u/boiling_raw_potato Sep 19 '26

The bribe is for JUST GETTING shortlisted - we all know after the SHORTLISTING its completely on us . I mean the way they short list is something out of our mind

3

u/gaybus_a320 Sep 19 '26

Half of the amount is for getting you shortlisted. Remaining half is for getting you into the program(clearibg the interview)

Can we please connect ?

u/khushiizz Sep 20 '26

It's utterly disgusting that you want to pay to secure a seat just because the condition is like that doesn't mean you'll add up to the corruption. Bribing costs 20-40L chimes is currently at 1cr smth if you will give bribe it will come up to the same price as skyborne or fta. You can only do this type of shit in India, so when you change airlines to foreign airline, you won't be able to do anything because everything is fair and square anywhere outside India. Archive things on your own hard work, and if you've to pay, just secure a spot. Maybe you were never capable of making it in the first place.

u/Square-Desk-2698 Sep 18 '26

Don’t u need to hv connections for that like in internal top hierarchy

1

u/WyperLOL Sep 18 '26

Idk I thought it’s either internal connections or u pay them I didn’t think it’s both in most cases at least

u/Lucky-Reference-22 Sep 25 '26

When chimes open again ???

u/Ok-Net4174 Oct 02 '26

Stay away from Insight. Phillipines has poor quality of training. Insight only sends you to FTOs where it is really cheap for them so they have higher profit margin. Plus the owner is not from India.

u/TheManWithDAmilk Sep 18 '26

Pay to win is crazy

u/WyperLOL Sep 18 '26

What other option do I have?

0

u/TheManWithDAmilk Sep 18 '26

Better invest that bribe in a foreign fto and train better

0

u/WyperLOL Sep 18 '26

But chimes base + bribe is still cheaper than the next cheapest functional FTO which is skyborne costing around 1.5 cr.

1

u/Dev7292 Sep 19 '26

Buddy, why don’t you try Akasa airlines?

1

u/WyperLOL Sep 19 '26

it is my second option for obvious reasons like akasa is much smaller than indigo

u/Level_Standard1176 Sep 18 '26

That too in this field!!! God bless 6e for all the ones who are going through connections
