Redbird Aviation

Redbird Aviation runs a flight training academy in India, also called Redbird Flight Training Academy or RFTA. It trains cadets who want to become pilots. The site says the academy offers many courses taught by its flight training faculty.

Training uses classrooms, simulators and aircraft. The academy lists advanced simulator training on single and multi-engine aircraft. It also says it runs the largest glass cockpit fleet in its region. A glass cockpit uses digital screens instead of old dial gauges.

The academy points to several strengths. It has experienced and qualified staff. It schedules regular maintenance for its fleet. It also says it keeps a strong ratio of aircraft to instructors to students, so each student gets personal attention.

Redbird says the Aero Club of India named it the top performing flying academy for four years in a row. The academy presents this as proof of its steady focus on training standards.

Graduates have found jobs with airlines. The site names Air Asia, Indigo, Air India Express, Vistara and Spice Jet as places where its graduates were placed.

Student comments on the site give more detail. One cadet describes support from ground classes through pre-flight briefings to flying and a first solo flight. Students mention training at bases in Baramati, Belgavi and Seoni. Another says he finished a syllabus of over 100 hours in just over two months. An army pilot wrote that he joined to get a commercial pilot licence for aeroplanes, based on his helicopter licence.

Students also say the aircraft are new and well kept. They say an aircraft was always available to fly. The academy says choosing Redbird means joining a legacy of dedication, skill and success. The website invites aspiring pilots to join the many who turned their flying dreams into reality. It has course details and enquiry pages for people who want to start training.
