Pilot Stories

Voices from the cockpit.

★★★★★

Zeroslip saved me from a school that looked great on paper but had a terrible fleet. They flagged it before I paid the fees. That alone was worth everything.

A
Arjun Mehta
CPL Holder · Trained in Philippines
★★★★★

I passed all four DGCA writtens on my first attempt. The exam strategy they built for me was so precise — I knew exactly what to study and in what order.

P
Priya Sharma
First Officer · IndiGo Airlines
★★★★★

The India vs abroad analysis was a genuine eye-opener. I was about to train in the US but Zeroslip showed me a better option in the Philippines at half the cost.

R
Rohit Nair
CPL Holder · Currently at SpiceJet
★★★★★

My eGCA registration was a mess. Zeroslip sorted every document issue in two days. I didn't have to make a single trip to the DGCA office myself.

S
Sneha Kulkarni
PPL Holder · Currently at IGRUA

What sets them apart is that they stayed with me for two years. Any problem — exam anxiety, school scheduling, medical renewal — they were just a WhatsApp away.

I was from a non-aviation family with zero contacts. Zeroslip made me feel like I had an insider with me every step. I couldn't have done this without them.

Common Questions

Everything you need to know.

You must be at least 16 years old to apply for a Student Pilot Licence (SPL) in India. For a Private Pilot Licence (PPL) you need to be 17, and for a Commercial Pilot Licence (CPL) the minimum age is 18. We can begin planning your roadmap even before you turn 16.

In India, total CPL training costs typically range from ₹35–65 lakhs depending on the school. Abroad (Philippines, USA) costs range from $40,000–$80,000 USD. Our cost optimisation service helps identify legitimate savings that can reduce this by 10–20%.

For a CPL in India you need to have passed Class 12 with Physics and Mathematics (or equivalent). If you haven't, there are NIOS (National Institute of Open Schooling) routes available. We can advise on the right path based on your academic history.

You book a 45–60 minute call with a Zeroslip advisor. We listen to your background, goals, and questions. You'll leave with honest guidance on next steps. There's no sales pressure and no obligation to continue with us — though most students do.

There are four DGCA CPL written examinations: Air Regulations (AR), Air Navigation (AN), Meteorology (MET), and Technical (General — airframes, engines, instruments). Each requires separate preparation. Our exam strategy covers all four in a recommended sequence.

Yes, but not directly. You must pass all four DGCA written exams and a DGCA skill test to convert your foreign CPL to an Indian CPL. We help you plan and pass this conversion process, which typically takes 6–12 months after returning to India.

A Class 1 DGCA Medical Certificate is required for CPL training and airline employment. It must be obtained from a DGCA-approved Aviation Medical Examiner (AME). We help you book with the right AME, prepare for the examination, and track your renewal dates.

Yes. Several banks offer aviation education loans (SBI, Bank of Baroda, HDFC). Loan amounts typically range from ₹15–50 lakhs. Our cost optimisation strategy includes guidance on financing structures, scholarships, and legitimate instalment arrangements with schools.
