There was a time when flight travels were a luxury only affordable to the rich. However, the times have changed, and today even common people are using flights to travel.

With the increased number of people using flights for travel, the aviation industry in India is growing at a rapid pace. More airlines are emerging, and existing airlines are investing in new aircraft.

The growth in the sector increased the demand for trained commercial pilots, and there is a need for more quality pilot training institutes within the country.

One of the leading pilot training institutions, comprising highly experienced professionals from the aviation industry, is Felix Pilot Training Institute in Chennai, India. Felix is an institution that caters to all types of training needs for people from various backgrounds.

Instead of going to different places to acquire multiple training, Felix offers a one-stop solution for all the necessary training and placement needs. They offer several key courses, including Pilot training, drone training, aircraft maintenance engineering, flight dispatcher, aero modelling, flight safety programs, and cabin crew training, among others.

Turning Setbacks Into Opportunities

Starting an institute from the ground up, the journey was far from easy for Mr Gokul Sudarsan. He shares that the past few years have been more challenging with the covid. The pandemic disrupted the aviation industry, and Felix, too, took a huge hit.

However, the team at Felix managed to turn the situation to their advantage and started online training classes. Now, students around the world are attending their classes.

Since Felix’s students are going out to different parts of the world, specifying their training according to each country’s norms is another challenge for the team of Felix.

Future Outlook

Sharing their plans for the future, Gokul Sudarsan says, “The team is working on bringing up crash courses for 3 and 6 months. We are also working on 3-year degree programs related to aviation and an integrated degree program with pilot training.”

They also have plans to establish a Flight Training Organization in South India. The Flight Training Organisations that are already in India take three years to finish the training, but Felix intends to finish it in less than two years times. It will eventually make a lot of people’s dreams of becoming a pilot much more affordable.

Parting Words

Aviation is a lucrative field that is not understood by everyone. Aviation doesn’t just end with Pilots; there are ground staff, air hostesses, maintenance engineers, and so on.

At Felix, instead of focusing on just one area, they give out options to the students right from their schooling to understand the significance of this industry and have a wider vision for their future goals.

“If you trust in yourself and work on your dreams, you can become an employer instead of an employee.”
