What the DGCA figures tell you
In its favour
- DGCA graded it Category B in the April 2026 ranking.
- DGCA approval runs to April 2028, so renewal is not an immediate question.
Check before you commit
- DGCA lists only 4 aircraft. A small fleet means one grounded aeroplane is a large share of the line, so ask how many are serviceable today and how many students are sharing them.
- Just one multi-engine aircraft is listed. Every student needs multi-engine hours, so ask how those slots are scheduled and what happens when that one aeroplane is down.
- The nearest weather station is not the airfield itself for at least one base, so live reports are an approximation of what you would actually be flying in.
Every line above restates a figure from DGCA's published documents and says why it matters. Nothing here is our opinion of the school, and none of it measures teaching quality, which no public document reports.
Typical flying weather
The southwest monsoon (Jun–Sep) is the main disruption; the rest of the year is largely stable and flyable, which is why several of the largest FTOs are based here.
This is a broad regional pattern, not a forecast. What actually matters is how many days a year this base can fly — ask the school for its weather-cancelled sortie count.

Model this school's costAircraft-to-student ratio is the single best predictor of finishing on time, but DGCA does not publish student numbers — the fleet shown here is one half of that sum, and only the school can give you the other. Ask how many aircraft are serviceable today. Last transcribed 27 Jul 2026.
Beyond the DGCA list
Researched by us from the school's own site, Wikipedia and official pages, then dated and cited. This is weaker evidence than the DGCA figures above, and it is free editorial work: no school pays to appear here, and nothing in this section affects ordering, filtering or ranking anywhere on the site.
- Founded
- 1958
- Founded in 1958, operating from Vadodara with a second base at Amreli, matching the two bases DGCA lists.
In its favour
- Founded in 1958, with two bases that match DGCA's record exactly.
- The Vadodara base is a scheduled airport with on-field weather reporting.
Weather at these bases
Vadodara and Amreli are both in comparatively dry parts of Gujarat, with the June to September monsoon as the main interruption and no significant fog season.
