SDFTI Closes On Deal To Train Indian Pilots
San Diego: San Diego Flight Training International (SDFTI) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Apace Consultants to begin training hundreds of student pilots from India and throughout Southeast Asia. The MOU established a framework in which students bound for India-based airlines will be referred to SDFTI for flight training, using the school’s Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) approved commercial multiengine curriculum with additional elements that meet specific requirements of India’s Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) commercial pilot license guidelines.
The SDFTI professional “DGCA†pilot program has been developed to quickly and safely provide Indian students with all the necessary training to earn US FAA Private, Instrument, Commercial, and Multiengine certificates and ratings while meeting all Commercial DGCA standards. SDFTI takes people with no flying experience through the courses needed to operate as a commercially certified multiengine professional aviator in six and a half months.
